Oh ocean of loving compassion
pour on us Your nectar rain
heal our wounds of hatred and war
...
War is a human invention
all seeds of strife and war
man himself has sown
death’s harvest to reap
...
Man draws strength from myriad power centres
to connect with the Order of the universe
to realise oneness with Infinite Power
whose prime locus lies in one’s heart
...
You can see the bottom of a lake
if water is crystalline, transparent
the truth’s face only a clear mirror reflects
...
