third quarter @ Taurus

 Trai-gunya Wishaya Wedaa; 
Nis-traigunyo bhava Arjuna

Content of  three Vedas are merely hues of  mind;

become a content-less consciousness, O Arjuna

Nir-dwandwo nitya sattwastho; nir-yoga kshema aatmawaan

Beyond conflict, here, now, always, 

neither turning inward nor outward, just being

- Krishna to Arjuna,  Battlefield counsel,  Chapter 2, Verse 45

Like a hollow bamboo, rest at ease with your body

Giving not, nor taking

in time, you will reach Buddha-hood

- Tilopa to  Naropa,    Song of Mahamudra,  Chapter 4
