Prayer to the Being - Let us Contemplate (6/12)

''This world is but an Indrajal *[1],
a dream, a mirage.
And so realizing
May thou live eternally close to the Tatpara *[2]
That is not overwhelmed by Chitpara *[3].
May the waters of Bliss flood your thoughts
Uninterrupted day after day'' -

Thus did he the Guru Mauni bless me -
Those hallowed feet of his, day and night,
Let us contemplate.
