> Look upon your web of thoughts: > World of semblance you experience, > Self-awareness hides from you; > Plunge beneath appearance: > Ether being whirls in you; > Self-awareness, it should honor > Your own spirit’s guiding beings. > Embrace your stream of feelings: > Where semblance and substance mingle, > Aware-self leans toward semblance; > So plunge beneath appearance: > And world soul forces are in you; > Aware-self should consider well > Inherent in soul the powers of life. > Let reign in you the thrust of will: > It climbs from all apparent being, > With autonomous existence well-equipped; > Turn to this throughout your life: > Filled it is with world-spirit-might; > Your autonomous existence, it should grasp > World-maker-might into spirit-I.
