The Divine Mandate .

Secretly with care , Bear the boon of spiritual treasure , In the inner most chamber of your heart , And remain conscious and alert , So that you never remain apart , From that tranquil image of peace , In your mundane life the impossible bliss . Your long preservation of purity , Your aching widow cry , Your stern austerity in the silence of retreat , Your complete self submission to His will , Have brought you the grace . Be Love ,and spread love , As the leaves and roots of banyan tree , Go abreast dauntless and free , And with the bestowed sword of knowledge , Cut off the shackles of bondage of your neighbors , Awake and inspire , move and impel . Your Lord’s mandate is with you , And the mandate itself would do . You the beloved servant have nothing but serve .
