Hard times come. Lean on the One, and you can get through them. You can sing. Death cannot touch you. Your tangles come loose. That support holds here and beyond, because the One is in everything. Lean in, and joy comes. The Guru's words steady you. Life can feel like a wide, scary ocean, and you cross it, toward an ocean of peace. With that support, fear lets go. The One knows you from the inside and fills your mind with strength. Wherever you are, the One is the fair place to turn. Put your trust there, and join everyone who remembers the One with joy. At the centre, the Rahao: here and beyond, the One holds you up, and the One is in everything.
