The Sacred Duty
01:33
|
|||
I am time grown old
Creating world destruction
Set in motion
To annihilate worlds
Even without you
All these warriors
Arrayed in hostile ranks
Will cease to exist
Therefore, arise!

The Infinite Spirit
03:33
|

Conquer your foes
And fulfill your glory
Be my instrument
The archer at my side!
O King
The great lord of discipline
The true majesty
Of form and wondrous vision
With countless eyes and mouths
Everywhere is boundless divinity
If a thousand suns
Were to rise in the sky at once
It would be like the light
Of the Infinite Spirit
You are to be known
As supreme eternity
The deepest treasure
Of all that is
The immutable guardian
Of the enduring sacred duty
I think that you are
Man’s timeless spirit
I see no beginning
Middle or end in you
Only boundless strength
In your endless arms
Your mouths of consuming flames
Scorching this universe
Your own brilliance…
The primordial spirit of Man
The deepest treasure of all that is
If a thousand suns
Were to rise in the sky at once
It would be like the light
Of the Infinite Spirit

The Eternal Enemy
01:15
|
|||
It is desire and anger
Arising from nature’s quality of passion
It is anger and desire...
Voracious and evil
Know it here
as the enemy
Voracious and evil!
As fire is
obscured by smoke
And a mirror by dirt
And as a seed is veiled by its caul...
So too is knowledge obscured
By the wise man’s eternal enemy
Knowledge is obscured
By the wise man’s eternal enemy
Voracious and evil!

The Insatiable Fire
01:48
|
|||
Therefore, first restrain your senses
Then kill this evil
That ruins knowledge and judgment
Kill this evil!
Great warrior, kill thy enemy!
Menacing you in form of desire
Great warrior, kill thy enemy!
The insatiable fire!
Though myself unborn, undying
I fashion nature
Which is mine, and I come into being
Through thine own magic
Purified by the fire
Many come into my presence
As they seek refuge in me
I reveal myself to them
By the wise man’s eternal enemy...
The insatiable fire!

The Totality of Action
02:59
|
|||
I shall teach you still
And evermore
Of the utmost knowledge one can know
Knowing it…
All have reached perfection
Following the ways of the sacred duty
In creation they are not reborn
In dissolution they suffer no sorrow
Untainted, luminous and without decay
The infinite spirit
My womb, the great infinite
Within it I place a seed
And from this
Comes the origin of all
The infinite spirit is the great womb
Of all forms that come to be
In all wombs
I am the seed-giver!
Untainted, luminous and without decay
The infinite spirit
Untainted, luminous and without decay
The totality of action
When the light of knowledge
Shines in all the body’s senses
Lucidity prevails
Untainted and luminous
Without decay!
Men of vision see the agent of action
Within nature’s qualities,
When transcending…
He enters my being
Untainted and luminous!

The Calm of Infinity
05:24
|
|||
As the mountainous depths of the ocean
Are unmoved when waters rush into it
So too the man, is unmoved when desires enter him,
Attaining a peace that eludes the man of sin
I see you blazing through fiery eyes
Hard to behold in the burning light
Of fire and sun
When it is night for all creatures
A master of restraint is awake
When he renounces all desires
He finds peace
This is the place of the Infinite Spirit
Where one is freed from delusion
Abide in it, even in death
And find the calm of infinity
I see you blazing through fiery eyes
Hard to behold in the burning light
Of fire and sun
Focus your mind on me
Then you will dwell within me
Without doubt
At the immutable summit of existence
For I penetrate the earth
And sustain all with my strength
For I am the universal fire
I work with the flow of the vital breath
To digest that which man consumes
I see you blazing through fiery eyes
Hard to behold in the burning light
Of fire and sun

The Vital Breath
03:14
|
|||
One should remember
Man’s spirit as the guide
The primordial poet
Smaller than a grain of sand
Granter of all things
In form inconceivable
The colour of the sun
Beyond darkness
Armed with devotion
And the strength of discipline
Focusing the vital breath
Between the brows
One attains the supreme
Divine spirit of Man
The colour of the sun
Beyond darkness
Invoking the infinite spirit
As the one eternal syllable...
ॐ OM ॐ
The Primordial Poet!
Reaching me, men of Great Spirit
Do not undergo rebirth
The ephemeral realm of suffering
They attain absolute perfection
The colour of the sun
Beyond darkness
Armed with devotion
And the strength of discipline
Focusing the vital breath
Between the brows
One attains the supreme
Divine spirit of Man

The Light of Knowledge
04:53
|
|||
Freed from the sorrows of birth and death
Achieving everlasting life
I am the foundation
Immortal and absolute
The basis of sacred duty and of perfect joy
Mired in this view and lost to themselves
They say that this world has no truth
With their meagre knowledge
They contrive abysmal deeds
To destroy the world!
Bound by a hundred fetters of hope
Obsessed by anger
They hoard their wealth
To satisfy their desire
Drunk with hypocrisy
They act with impure vows
To destroy the world!
These hateful, cruel and vile
Men of misfortune
I cast them into demonic wombs
Through cycles of rebirth
I shall sacrifice and rejoice!
These men deluded by ignorance
Confused by endless thoughts
Caught in a net of delusion
They fall into hell’s foul abyss
I shall sacrifice and rejoice!
I have killed that enemy!
And I shall kill many more
Since I transcend what is transient
I am the supreme spirit of man
Against my will, I must do
What desire makes me refuse
I want to know
The real essence
Free from desire and
Born with the divine
Light of knowledge!
