Pháp Nhãn Temple Ven. Thích Trừng Sỹ
Namo Buddhaya. Namo Dhammaya. Namo Sanghaya.
Before long, alas, this body
Will lie stretched upon the ground—
Cast aside, devoid of consciousness,
Like a rotten log.
Will lie stretched upon the ground—
Cast aside, devoid of consciousness,
Like a rotten log.
(Dhammapada 41)

When arising and passing away cease,
Peaceful cessation is bliss.
