Enemies and Friends

If you know that your enemies can turn into your friends,
When you are angry at them, you will cut through it.
If you know that your friends can turn into your enemies,
You'll cut through your attachment to them at its root.
What you must know about your friends and enemies
Is that they are equal. Understand this.

Know this life to be like a dream.
See the mind’s unborn nature.
Aspire to be of benefit to others.
