THE TRANSLATION IN ORDER IS AS FOLLOWS:
From delusion lead me to truth
From darkness lead me to light
From death lead me to immortality.
He who knows both knowledge and action,
with action overcomes death and with
knowledge reaches immortality.
In him are woven the sky and the earth
and all the regions of the air, and in him
rest the mind and all the powers of life.
Know him as the ONE and leave aside all
other words. He is the bridge of
immortality.
Beyond the senses is the mind, and beyond
the mind is reason, its essence. Beyond
reason is the Spirit in man, and beyond this
is the Spirit of the Universe, the evolver of
all.
When the five senses and the mind are still,
and reason itself rests in silence, then
begins the Path supreme.
Ya ya ya ya yada yadaya
Ya ya ya ya yada yada yada yada
Yada yada yada yada yada
And when he is seen in his immanence and
transcendence, then the ties that have
bound the heart are unloosened, the doubts
of the mind vanish, and the law of Karma
works no more.
