Quatrain of Nirvana - 1020 - Yorktown Disciple

Quatrain of Nirvana

Nirvana - to become extinguished

The extinction of desires,
the goal of calming pleasure
where sin slides beneath the
waves,

Nirvana, the ousting of
ignorance and pure hatred,
the soul releasing the horror it
enslaves,

The wealth of common goals,
the bounty found within deep
thought, is worshipped
carefully,

And what is left from the quest,
is the end of pain and all else
the Devil and his aides
decree.
