Knowing Yourself

The Friend says,

"Please think about this -
You do not suddenly
Become learned
After leaving the body."

"For when you leave
The body temple
You will know no more
Of yourself, your soul,
Or the Friend
Than you know now."

Dearest Seeker,

The Friend says.
"The only reason you have
Been born on the earth
Is to know yourself
And the Friend."

And -

The only way to do this
Is through meditation
On the inner light and sound -
Upon which a demonstration
Is given to you
At the time of your initiation.

It is only after you have had
These experiences
That you begin to realize
How oppressive and heavy
Is the illusion
Of this material world.

Dearest Seeker,

Why not seek initiation
Today?
