Om

You are sun, moon,
clouds, rain,

the pure breath,
the light that shines,
the shapes illum'ned:

all which is part of nature
is you, the soul divine.

You are a mantra containing
the secret principle
the mind of light
the seeds of creation
of the life divine.

The world is empty
except for your signs.
These forms are empty,
except for your light.
