- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- If you know your own worth,
- What need you care about
- The acceptance or rejection of others?
- Worship him as if you could see
- Him with your physical eyes;
- Though you don't see him,
- He sees you.
- Whilst in this land
- Of fruitless pursuits,
- You are always unbalanced, always
- Either all back or all front;
- But once the seeking soul has progressed
- Just a few paces beyond this state,
- Love seizes the reins.
- While this world remains,
- That one cannot be;
- Whilst you exist,
- God cannot be yours.
- The coming of death
- Is the key which unlocks
- The unknown domain;
- But for death, the door of true faith
- Would remain unopened.
- If you yourself
- Are upside down in reality,
- Then your wisdom and faith
- Are bound to be topsy-turvy.
- Stop weaving a net about yourself:
- Burst like a lion from the cage.
- Melt yourself down in this search:
- Venture your life and your soul
- In the path of sincerity;
- Strive to pass from nothingness to being,
- And make yourself drunk with the wine of God.
