My Lord, I pray for peace.
Lord, the remedy of all ills
is the quiet sound of your name.
All my afflictions are nothing
when I am in your presence.
Evil cannot lay a shadow on me
in your light.
My Lord, I pray for peace.
You've given me a sacred body,
a mind of light.
You've given me this form, Tulku.
You've given me my love,
and a heart that endlessly loves you.
Infinitely, life flows into life,
and the pure heart survives,
while evil, decaying, is revealed, and dies.
My Lord, I pray for peace.
I but once speak your name,
and my soul knows stillness as a frozen lake.
My form I shed to take another,
and my soul and every cell exults in pure gratitude.
My heart is still,
waiting for the next sign of you.
Your beauty is my assurance
I am safe with you.
Yet again I come into a new form,
and peace, joy, strength and energy
radiate my being.
I prayed for peace, and you made your presence known.
Asked for guidance and you enfolded me in your Self.
Asked for sight, and you showed me the mirage of this world fade,
and knowledge you bestowed, to show me that my center is your soul.
Beauty is existence, truth,
union of opposites -
individual, environment,
subject, object,
a part - the whole.
My peace is my reality -
I am nothing and cannot be destroyed,
I am only You.
It is said, good is like a tree,
while evil is like grass.
The good will remain for years,
but evil will fade quickly.
Many days I saw you,
and now I know what I saw -
In your existence there is no diminishing.
You are the Champion, and our Guardian,
Angel of our evolution.
This world is lost in the finite,
But we are part of your Infinite,
we are you.
Dear Lord, you are infinite, perfect divine existence,
Absolute truth, eternal Being.
Every soul is part of you,
and all return to you.
You alone are infinite reality,
yet still this world seems to exist in shadow,
here there appears to be evil.
What can I do?
Human beings are not computers, with a set of rules.
Rules exist for society,
rather for governing animals -
when we know the next stage of consciousness,
our evolution,
perceive the infinite spirit that is our source
and the sole reality,
then rules keep us bound in duality,
and keep us from seeing you.
What is? and what should be?
Infinite worlds exist, and all exist for You.
Out of this darkness, out of this finite maze,
There is only your grace, to bring us to you.
It is both your mercy that we are blind and that we see -
that we dream and that we wake,
that we are dead and that we live.
Your clues and signs and divine saints are nigh innumerable,
and yet the world seems so forgone into illusion.
Everyone has the truth of their family, and their nation,
Though they do not know they sin against you.
Their only sin is weakness.
Animal nature, divine nature,
I care not what the world chose to be.
A breath, a turn, a revolution,
I choose to rest in the spirit's calm,
beyond world, strife, and confusion.
