10. Upasama, you should cross the flood, the realm of death which is very hard to cross. Bear your last body, having conquered Māra and his mount.
Weingast
How do
you cross
the flood?
You cross
calmly—
one step
at a time,
feeling
for stones.
How do
you cross
the flood,
my heart?
You cross
calmly—
one step
at a time,
or not at all.
