Goodness escapes me...



Goodness escapes me.
Compassion escapes me.
Wisdom is a distant memory.
My kindness is born from ego.
Is it possible for me to be genuine?
I feel fake and false.
I don't know anything.
Empty.

Amida Buddha sees me.
Amida Buddha Vowed to save the likes of me.
Amida Buddha threw his Compassionate net so wide that even
someone as evil as me
gets caught in it's grasp.

Good for nothing
that is me,
and that makes me
perfect for Amida Buddha.

Namu Amida Butsu


Thank you,
Jishin
