"That I am what I am, and I am,
I am surprised"
I have failed
All the five monastic vows
I have failed
To forgive myself failures
I have failed
To forgive others' failures
I have failed
To mitigate misery
I have failed
To be more compassionate
I have failed
To be a good example
I have failed
To publish a worthy book
I have failed
To be collaborative
I have failed
To falsify a thesis
I have failed
To keep posted office hours
I have failed
Not to be afraid of pain
I have failed
To avoid disagreements
I have failed
To choose hard over easy
I have failed
To go beyond pettiness
I have failed
To treat the land as holy
My body as a temple
My career as a calling
My students as my colleagues
My colleagues as family
My family as my friends
I have failed
To be the things one should be
I have failed
I am failing I will fail
I have not
Failed to know I am to be
