243. Father and daughter

```

To love You, Father,

I have discarded

My arrows of desire.

"Thank you, daughter."

To please You, Father,

I have stopped eating

With ignorance-life.

"Thank you, daughter."

To become inseparably one with You,

I am challenging

The pride of my brooding night.

"Thank you, daughter." ```
