His Holiness Teaches Us:
Disciple:
To let Grace spring forth,
To let darkness vanish,
To let love of Guru grow,
To let qualities be purified,
O Graceful Guru, give me a remedy.
Disciple:
Swami, show us a way to dispel the darkness in the world.
Guru:
O Son, I shall sing a song and then answer your question.
For the Silent One to appear as Grace,
To find the world as a tiny thing,
To destroy sorrow which is a maiden,
With help from the Master Guru's graceful way,
Seek and learn standing on the path,
And ask with a melting heart.
Let the body become the true mystery,
Dominant with grace,
Let the seed be destroyed,
Blinding both eyes.
Enshrine in thy heart,
The lamp of Guru's graceful words,
With a heart of love,
See Aathi as a thing.
Spread the Guru's words with delightful heart,
Unfurl the flag of Guru's words everywhere,
Then the fate that accompanies thee
Shall turn into dust.
My true and perfect pupils, gems of my eyes,
Ask for the remedy in order to shine everywhere.
