Be humble!

Be humble.

Only fools take pride in their station here,

trapped in a cage of dust, moisture, heat and air.

No need to complain of calamities,

this illusion of a life lasts but a moment.

Beloved!

If you are seeking closeness to the Beloved,

love everyone.

Whether in their presence or absence,

see only their good.

If you want to be as clear and refreshing as

the breath of the morning breeze,

like the sun, have nothing but warmth and light

for everyone.

In Each Breath!

O you who have departed from your own self,

and who have not yet reached the Friend:

do not be sad, for

He is accompanying you in each of your breaths
