Abide By The Teacher and Honour His Lessons Poem by Mohammad Younus

Abide by the teacher and honor his lessons...
...for a teacher is in the image of a prophet,
Do you know of someone nobler in rank than...
...he who teaches wisdom and imparts knowledge divine,
He guides you to the treasures hidden, the True Master...
...he teaches with the pen of prophets the secrets divine...
...he brings you out of darkness to light...
...and removes your ignorance through awakening,
...he removes your illusion and delusion...
...through enlightenment...
...he leads you on the radiant path...
...in order that you are not lost in the...
... puzzling maze,
But if the teacher is not capable añd experienced...
... then those under his tutelage will lack vision...
...and will grow in ignorance and delusion.
