Episode Synopsis

This is a song based on a buddhist text, and a christian church style song.  Great to see the mixing of traditions.Lyrics:Through birth and rebirth's endless round,I ran and sought but never foundWho framed and built this house of claywhat misery rebirth alwaysO builder you at last I seeNe'er shall you build again for meYour rafters all are broken now,Demolished the ridge lies lowAnd when the builder I can see;Then this my last abode shall be:Desire will end, all lust will cease,And with their end my heart have peace.Music by Daniel Read, Translations by Charles Lanman and Paul Carus,  Hosted on Acast.
