lyrics

I have no parents
I make the heavens and earth my parents.

I have no home
I make awareness my home.

I have no life or death
I make the tides of breathing my life and death.

I have no divine power
I make honesty my divine power.

I have no means
I make understanding my means.

I have no magic secrets
I make character my magic secret.

I have no body
I make endurance my body.

I have no eyes
I have no ears
I have no limbs

I have no strategy
I make "unshadowed by thought" my strategy.

I have no designs
I make "seizing opportunity by the forelock" my design.

I have no miracles
I make right-action my miracles.

I have no principles
I have no tactics
I have no talents

I have no friends
I make my mind my friend.

I have no enemy
I make carelessness my enemy.

I have no armor
I make benevolence and righteousness my armor.

I have no castle
I make immovable-mind my castle.

I have no sword
I make absence of self my sword.
