Yet within each of these perfect celestial flowers new strata of stars of golden-coloured splendour appeared.

Decorated with their own moons, uncountable suns danced together, here within the flowers, a roundelay of infinity like the shining eyes of pure cognition.

Sometimes these golden glowing sun-eyes were turned inwards, full of delight, as if they bowed down shyly before their beloved dancing-partners.

Then the moon-eyes shone even brighter and turned towards them with even more intense radiation as if they wanted to penetrate the bashful sun-eyes with the silvery-white arrows of their love.

At another time however, it was the bright moon-eyes that were turned inwardly full of bliss as if they now wanted to bow down shyly before the sun-eyes, their dear dancing-partners, and the sun-eyes, shining even golder with even milder radiance turned towards them as if they in turn wanted to enter their bashful eyes with their golden gleaming arrows of love.

At other times again the blissed sight of both of them was turned inwardly - as if they carried each other within themselves; or they looked into each others eyes like lovers which since times immemorial get to know each other anew with every blissful happy look, and which cover each other with innumerable thrills of rapture like with sweet and delicate kisses.

Each of these glowing sun-eyes of pure happiness of life was surrounded by a purple glory - like the robe of a king.

And the gleaming moon-eyes of pure joy of life too shone forth in a robe - but of the bright blue which the kings prefer.

But within each of these eyes of delight, which peopled innumerably every single jewel-flower on the celestial meadow, again new fields of stars appeared - and within these too Mani saw suns with their own moons dancing a roundelay.

And as she ventured another, even deeper glance - although she felt quite dizzy already from these infinite spaces - she perceived even within these star-eyes new universes in a dancing splendour.

This is how it went on and on without an end; before Mani's blest sight in each world permanently a new golden-silvery world of infinite bliss unfolded - even more beautiful, and twinkling in a splendour of colours.

And with a thrill of relief she saw how in the uncountable worlds, that permeated each other in every single flower of the blooming meadow of heaven, creatures appeared which shone brighter and brighter, peopling the infinite golden-silvery spaces like the sons and daughters of the sun and the moon, and who danced through their worlds of bliss - like their enlightened parents - while roaming through gardens of many colours, glistening in gold and silver, full of shimmering plants of jewels whose bodies were permeated by veins of infinite manifold bliss; and in these luminous veins of bliss within bliss ever new milky ways of infinite splendour permeated each other.
