3. Woche (21. - 27. April)
|
Es spricht zum Weltenall,
Sich selbst vergessend
Und seines Urstands eingedenk,
Des Menschen wachsend Ich:
In dir, befreiend mich
Aus meiner Eigenheiten Fessel,
Ergruende ich mein echtes Wesen.

3rd week: (April 21 - 27)
|
To the universe there speaks
the evolving human ego---
forgetting itself---
aware of its original state:
"As I liberate myself
from the chains
of my own subjectivity,
I fathom my true being
in you."
|

|
50. Woche (16. - 22. Maerz)
|
Es spricht zum Menschen-Ich,
Sich machtvoll offenbarend
Und seines Wesens Kraefte loesend
Des Weltendaseins Werdelust:
In dich mein Leben tragend
Aus seinem Zauberbanne,
Erreiche ich mein wahres Ziel.

50th week: ( March 16 - 22)
|
The joy of cosmic genesis,
revealing itself so powerfully,
speaks to my human ego,
unleashing forces
of its own cosmic essence:
"Releasing my life
from its chains of enchantment,
and giving it to you---
I reach my true goal."
