LORD OF SOULS

FROM ALAN JACOBS ADVAITA VEDANTA
SONNETS OF EXPERIENCE

LORD OF SOULS
Be wedded to the Great Lord of Souls,
It is He that heals and makes us whole,
His names are many, Brahman or God,
All signify the Self of this fallen clod,
Whom as Sat Guru He'll soon redeem,
To wake sad sleeper from his bad world dream,
Leading him back to his natural state,
If he makes right effort before too late.
When He's ready and vasanas are cleared,
He'll remove ego which makes him affeared.
So be grateful to the Great Lord of Souls,
For coming to save us and making us whole.
He pities the poor undeserving 'me'
Transforming him into Self who is also He.
