A demon dresses as a courtesan,
singing love songs to her lover, who comes to pray to Buddha.
Even the most commonplace words about Buddha
sound a little blasphemous.
Like stealing a moment of life while praying to Buddha,
like a fleeting delight crossing your mind as you recite a prayer.
Demon and monk.
Buddha saves all living beings and delivers them from suffering.
He does not save those caught up in love, nor those destined to meet.
