The Arc
Pauri 0: let attachment, mine-and-yours, and self-conceit dissolve. Rahau (Pauri 1): friends, show me the real method to quiet ego and pride. Pauri 2 (the answer begins): see the One in every being and gladly be the dust of all. Pauri 3: then I saw the One was with me all along, and the wall of doubt crumbled. Pauri 4: the medicine of the Name and the pure water of healing are found at the teaching's door. Pauri 5: when the moment is ripe, meeting the guide, the sickness of ego is cured.
