Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gye Nyame.
Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gayathri.
1
We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate on
You as the Supreme Spirit, within and beyond the ancestors,
mediums, gods, ghosts, phantoms, and spooks.
2
By association with You, the Most Disciplined, beyond he,
she, and it, we continue to reawaken to our eternal position of
infinite bliss and comprehension. Thank You for showing us
how to remember You, seeing You alone in all sentient beings.
3
By surrendering all to You, the Source of all centeredness,
balance, order, harmony, righteous, love, patience, and peace,
we associate with You. We think of You, we concentrate on
You, we meditate on You as all pervasive Supreme Spirit,
Energy, or Force.
4
Associating with You our consciousness is cleansed
of anger, lust, and greed, the nonsense ego which identifies with
that which is diametrically opposed to the virtues mentioned
above.
5
Surrendering all to You brings us back to that which is
eternal, that which truly exists, that which we really are, our
own Savior, You. Thank You for showing us how to
remember You in all we do.
6
Surrender to You means we forgo temporary sense
gratification, no matter how dear, for the sake of keeping
You, who are always closer than the air our body breathes,
increasingly near. This helps us become ever stronger and
more disciplined in our patience and determination to
reawaken to You, our Supreme Being.
7
May we forever keep our minds fixed on You by surrendering
all to You. By this means, the lower "self" is disciplined by
association with the highest "Self."
8
As the lower self is disciplined, it disciplines the intellect, this
disciplines the mind. The disciplined mind better disciplines
the body.
9
We think of You as the Supreme Intelligence, the One beyond
all genders, at the foundation of the intelligence of all. By
persevering in surrendering to You, we develop our natural
discernment, greater equanimity, and sincere humility.
Thank You for showing us a way to the Supreme Knowledge,
the Knowledge of Self, as our own Supreme Spirit.
10
When all we think, feel, will and do is surrendered to You, our
consciousness is purified and freed from slavery to
attachments. Thus, our consciousness is cleansed of hatreds
and desires, and reinvigorated with with its natural love,
unselfishness, and desirelessness.
11
Always thinking of You has proven to be the surrender
that purifies our Pineal Gland and our consciousness. Slowly,
we are experiencing a decrease, a fading away of the
brigands, anger, envy, and covetousness, from our
consciousness.
12
Those brigands are being gradually replaced with our
natural state of compassion, goodwill, and charity for all.
Thank You for helping us unfold and experience our own
quintessential nature as Eternal Spirit, the Everlasting
Witness of here, now, this moment.
13
The greater our understanding, appreciation and acceptance
of You the greater our understanding, appreciation, and
acceptance of others. It all depends on purification of
consciousness.
14
You are in and beyond every particle, and every vibration,
and every particle, every vibration is within in You. However,
we do not worship the particle, nor do we worship the vibration;
we worship You alone; we do this through constant remembrance
of You.
15
Praise to You, Thanksgiving to You, and Glorification of
You. Application of this as a Mantra purifies the Pineal
Gland and consciousness. Thank You for teaching us how to
think carefully, analytically, critically, and independently.
16
We think of You as the One Supreme Intelligence who
pervades and transcends the light and darkness, and all
other dualities. The more the Pineal Gland is purified by
always thinking of You, we experience the fact that You are
the Supreme Witness, within and beyond the universe. Truly,
the universe is within You, and You contain it, but it cannot
contain all of You, although You contain all of it.
17
Surrendering to You, all our praise and thanksgiving, prayer,
study, sacrifice, service, right association, and meditation, is
our ancient method of cleaning the Pineal gland.
18
As we clean or decalcify the Pineal Gland, primarily by
always thinking of You, the consciousness is cleansed and we
experience You. We think of You as the foundation of all
consciousness, the Supreme Self of all Selves.
