The creature asked the Creator
By what way shall I find you?
The Lord replied,
Find your mind, and youll find me.
Your mind is known as the mirror.
Deeds, good and bad,
it watches and shows all!
(Your mind is known as the mirror!)
Mind is celestial, mind is God,
None there is higher than the mind.
Whenever, wherever
The minds light spreads
(Then, there) the world is lit!
On this mind-mirror, O Creature,
Flowers of pleasure,
Thorns of sorrow,
Mind is the basis of all!
Nothing at all
Can hide from the mind,
The mind has a thousand eyes!
Maybe someone
Can run away from the world,
But none
Can run away from the mind!
(Your mind is known as the mirror!)
The wealth of the body
Is but a fleeting shadow,
Whereas , Priceless
Is the wealth of the mind!
Because of the body
Do not rub and ruin
The wealth of your mind
In grime!
Those who are in forgetfulness
Of the value of the mind,
Live a life of waste!
(Your mind is known as the mirror!)
