Seven Line Prayer (Wyl. tshig bdun gsol 'debs) also known as The Seven Verses of the Vajra. The invocation by which Guru Rinpoche came into this world.
Hung!
In the north-west of the land of Oddiyana,
In the heart of a lotus flower,
Endowed with the most marvellous attainments,
You are renowned as the “Lotus Born”,
Surrounded by hosts of dakinis.
Following in your footsteps,
I pray to you: Come, inspire me with your blessing!

Jan.s: Jeni, we’ve only met recently at the children’s illustrators/writers meet chaired by the wonderful Susanne Gervay at The Hughenden. What struck me about you was your quiet forthrightness and also that you have a whacky sense of humour! At our last meet you talked about a breakthrough and to herald in your new awakening…you gave each of us a pink flying pig candle!!! Can I ask you to share with me that breakthrough?

 Introduction:  I interviewed Judy; in perhaps late 1979.  There is a Part One of this interview but I've yet to locate it.  I was studying Jazz theory with visiting USA Jazz musicians; via the courtesy of Jeanette & Greg Quigley who had organized Jamie Aebersold to teach in Australia. I've the feeling that it was around this time that I managed to sit down and have a chat with Judy with my trusted tape recorder.  As this interview will show; Judy displays a brilliant; quirky, humorous and insightful take on her idiom along with the generalities of life in the Antipodes.  I've decided to try to stick to the original transcription with as few edits as possible. Along with that as it's a very long interview which I'm having to retype I'm going to break it up into segments. I know for those who are familiar with Judy's work you'll enjoy hearing her responses to my questions and for those new to her that you'll check out her gorgeous music.   Chee...
