壽吾壽

君不見，

逍遙自在無量載，覺能藝創定江山！

神龍心宗來普度，神龍如來笑春風！

                                                               太一神龍

Offering Birthday Congratulations on My Birthday

Do you not see,

For measureless years, I have been free and unfettered,

Master of myself,

Using my enlightenment power and ability in art creativity to create a realm of my own!

The Enlightenment Mind School of Shen-Long

Exists to universally liberate all beings from suffering.

Shen-Long Tathagata (Buddha)* smiles brightly in the spring breeze!

                                      By Tai-Yi Shen-Long (Supreme One Divine Dragon)

* Shen-Long Tathagata (Buddha) represents the truth that all beings inherently possess this same enlightened nature – everyone is originally a Buddha. This poem, in fact, is a celebration of yourself.
