That which created the universe is the Mother of the world By knowing the Mother one knows her children By knowing her children one comes to know her Such is their unity that one does not exist without the other
Fully embrace your life and you will share in the glory of creation The Mother herself will be your guardian And all her creation will be your guide
Stay with the Mother, shut the mouth, close the gates and you are never in trouble Abandon the Mother, open the mouth, be busy with others and you are beyond all hope of rescue
Seeing your own smallness is called insight Honouring your own tenderness is called strength
The sun in all its glory reveals a passing world Only the inner light illumines eternity Only that light can guide us back home
Have faith Follow your own shining Be aware of your own awareness On the darkest nights you will not stumble On the brightest days you will not blink This is called “The Practice of Eternal Light”
