Curb the Ego! And let the Heart’s Petals of Virtue Open!

Curb the Ego! And let the Heart’s Petals of Virtue Open!

Om Shri Hum, Sarva Shri hum, Om Mani Padme Hum

Pride and Ego shackle the Heart,
Pride and Ego breaks the Heart,
When the heart is thus broken,
Caged by a Prison which is without walls,
Virtues and Attainments flow not.

Pride entangles the Heart,
In Delusions of Grandeur, Illusions of Greatness, Mirages of Self Importance,
For it makes he who is entangled by Self Importance
Blind to his own poisons, how fearful!

Ego cloaks the Heart,
From truth in streams of self praising rapture,
Rapture not from meditative Bliss, but of fuel that feeds the harmful pride!
Rapture from one who is of no Kindness, no Attainments, no Virtues,
But yet believes he is Most Kind, Most Benevolent, Most High!

Therefore Children and Beloved of the Divine Light!
Heed this! Heed This!
Bend your Pride and Curb the Ego…
Serve the Law*
Devote your Mind
Towards the Divine within.

Only thus will the broken heart repair,
Not to be entangled once again in attachments, pain and delusion
But to bring forth the out pouring of divine virtues,
That is not achieved, created or attained,
but awaiting the light
To cast away the shadow, to illumine the room of the heart
And Rediscover what was already present , that which was already there.

Om Mani Padme Hum
