there was nikuko. there was this girl nikuko. this is writing in the
dream-field vi with autoindent. she was in samadhi. mumonkan 42. lotus
  sutra. she was in samadhi. she was naked. her finger was in her. her
  hand was in her. her wrist was in her. her arm was in her.

  she was in samadhi. she was covered in white powder. her skin was
  burning. she was called flesh-girl meat-girl. she was a girl. manjusri
  was there. she was near the buddha-throne. she was touching the
  buddha. flames burned from her fingers. flames touched the buddha.

  manjusri was there. he asked shakyamuni, nikuko is touching you. he
  said, you are burning, burning. he asked shakyamuni, why is she touching
  you. he asked, why are you allowing this. he said, why is this in what
  law or precept. shakyamuni buddha said, bring her from samadhi, ask her.
  shakyamuni buddha said, ask her yourself, do not ask me.

    manjusri could not bring her forth. he tried towards the left and
    right. he tried in the five directions. in the six directions. he
    could not. he could not be centered. nikuko was burning, flames issued
    forth from her fingers, they touched the buddha, nikuko's arm was
    inside her, her other arm, her hand, her fingers, caressed the
    shakyamuni, caressed the shakyamuni buddha. manjusri could not do
    anything, she would not wake up, he could not arouse her, her arms
    were in the buddha.

    shakyamuni buddha said to manjusri, you can not do anything, she will
    not wake up, you cannot arouse her. shakyamuni said, there is the
    bodhisattva momyo. i will bring bodhisattva momyo. shakyamuni buddha
    brought forth bodhisattva momyo. bodhisattva momyo emerged from the
    earth. bodhisattva momyo snapped his fingers. nikuko emerged from
    samadhi, her fires decreased, her arms and hands and fingers emerged.

      of nikuko it is said she was the consort of shakyamuni buddha, and
      her fire did not cease. of nikuko it is said, from compassion she
      created illusion, from dispassion, maya, from samadhi, nothing. of
      nikuko it is said, she created nothing, she was this girl, she
      created theater and the drama, she created buddha and the stage, she
      created parable and aphorism. of this aphorism it is said, it was
      written by shakyamuni buddha, it was written by manjusri, it was
      written by momyo.

      she was this girl, she created shakyamuni buddha, she created
      manjusri. of this gloss it is said, it was written by momyo.
