> For all power pushes forward into the vastness, > To live and work here and there; > But on every side, the stream of the world inhibits and constricts us, > And carries us away; > In this inner storm and outer strife, > The spirit hears a word that is difficult to understand: > From the power that binds all beings, > The person who overcomes themselves is freed.
