The Chain of Pain and Pleasure

Pain and suffering feel uncomfortable for the mind.

How difficult it is to be with pain.

If only for an instant, the mind could be still,

The pain would be a call to look again.

Am I this pain ?

That, 

Which witnesses the pain is free of pain.

Upon truly seeing this, healing is received.

Pleasure and desire feel nice for the mind.

How easy it is to be with pleasure.

If only for an instant, the mind could be still,

The pleasure would be a call to look again.

Am I this pleasure ?

That, 

Which witnesses the pleasure is free of pleasure.

Upon truly seeing this, healing is received.

Pain and pleasure are both a chain to the mind.

Undoing and entanglement keep the mind 

Chained to the dream.

Abide in the witnessing of it.
