Bell Gathas (Verses)

Verse for Inviting the Bell
Body, speech, and mind, held in perfect oneness–
I send my heart along with the sound of the bell.
May the hearers awaken from forgetfulness
and transform all anxiety and sorrow.

Verse upon Hearing the Bell
Listen, listen,
this wonderful sound
brings me back to my true home.
