How beautiful the season becomes when the One fills your mind — and the heart-lotus opens wide.
The Arc
Stay close to the Guru, and pain starts to lift. The One is kind, and what you need comes together. Any season turns lovely when the One fills your mind. Without the Guru, the world cries, and people go around and around in circles. The richest people carry the One as their savings. Craving and anger fade, and fear goes with them. The One lives where people gather to remember, and fills the water, the land and the sky. Every treasure you could dream of is in the Naam. It comes as a gift. Live on it, and your heart opens like a lotus in the sun. At the centre, the Rahao: any season is beautiful when the One fills your mind.
