"We meditate on the transcendental glory of
the Deity Supreme,
who is inside the heart of the earth,
inside the life of the sky,
and inside the soul of the heaven.
May He stimulate and illumine our minds. "
- The Gayatri Mantra
From Delight we came into existence.
In Delight we grow.
At the end of our journey’s close,
Into Delight we retire.
Lead me from the unreal to the Real.
Lead me from darkness unto Light.
Lead me from death to Immortality. Truth alone triumphs.
Whatever takes form is false.
Only the formless endures.
When you understand
The truth of this teaching,
You will not be born again.
For God is infinite,
Within the body and without,
Like a mirror,
And the image in a mirror.
As the air is everywhere,
I become you, you become me.
I become the soul, you the heart.
How can they now claim I am apart, you are apart?
Amir Khusro
Repeating the name of the Beloved, I have become the Beloved myself.
Whom shall I call the Beloved now?
Bulleh Shah
O Allah! If I worship you for fear of Hell, burn me in Hell.
If I worship You in hope of Paradise, exclude me from Paradise.
But if I worship You for Your own sake, grudge me not Your everlasting Beauty.
Rabia al Basri
As fragrance abides in the flower
As reflection is within the mirror,
So does your Lord abide within you,
Why search for him without?
Guru Nanak Dev Ji
One cannot comprehend Him through reason, even if one reasoned for ages.
