08.Crossing The Pond(穿越)-Snoblind+Anji Bee(雪盲+安姬貝)

Snoblind是香港的電音二人組，曾數次來台演唱；Anji Bee是美國知名另類魅惑電音二人組Lovespirals的創作主力兼主唱，早就常常支援美國cc活動，先前在網路上遇到本CABACA製作中心Moshang而結為知己，此次知道我們在弄這個「CC協力創作專輯」而大力投入。此曲Crossing The Pond是Snoblind先放到cabaca工作網上，
Sudev加上吉他，Anji Bee加上旋律歌詞，唱著佛的道理，人生思考，慾望憎恨，思緒虛無，智慧光芒，奉獻圓滿…最後加上台灣朋友熟悉的「南無阿彌陀佛」，神遊之際突至虔誠廟堂。

Crossing The Pond(translated : Sonja V.)
Snoblind(H.K.)[香港]+Anji Bee(Usa)[美國]

Know ye not that this life is deceit?
Know ye not that enjoyment is illusion?
Know ye not the world is a passing show?
Know ye not that happiness is a dream?
Know ye not that praise and blame is insubstantial?
Know yet not that appearance is the mind itself?

未知的是 人生裡是否有些欺騙
未知的是 這些歡樂是否像是幻覺
未知的是 這世界是否就是場電影般
未知的是 快樂是否像是場夢境
未知的是 我們所歌頌和責怪的是否都是真實的
未知的是 我們所呈現出來的是否就是我們的真心

Know yet not that the mind itself is Buddhahood?
Know yet not that the Buddhahood is the body of truth?

未知的是的 我們的思想是否就是所謂的佛
未知的是 我們身軀是否就是佛的真實

When ye reflect, all appearances are compacted out of mind
Contemplate the mind by day and night
From contemplation of the mind comes beatific vision
Abide in that beatitude

當你自省 所有的表象被意識隔離
意志的沈思不分日夜
從自我覺醒當中撇見了幸福的模樣
並為此而堅持

Know ye not that the body of truth is truth itself? (x2)

而未知的是 真實的表象下 是否又能夠當真

When ye meditate upon these things
Though ye do not succeed in rooting out desire and hatred
Know that whatever appears is your own mind-stuff
And that the mind itself is void
If ye dwell in wisdom inseparably
All the observances of the law, oblations, and the like
Are thus perfectly fulfilled

當你思考著人生
從來都不容易將慾望和憎恨忘記
記住你思緒裡所呈現的只是你的思緒
而思緒是虛無的
如果你能在智慧光芒裡永久的停留
在智慧的規律之下而奉獻
你將會因此而感受到圓滿

We are Snoblind from Hong Kong and we are involved in the tracks"Crossing the Pond" and "Moved By an Angel".
We were introduced into the CCBA project by Mr.Ben Cheng, a find gentleman actively involved in CC in Hong Kong. We have heard of some CC artists in Taiwan before and we are glad to have a chance to make songs with them and other Asian artists together, though we have not met before. It is an exciting experience to collaborate with artists
in the internet realm.
