THE DAYS OF THE WEEK
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win. 458
Sunday start your devotion:
in the temple of your body let your mind like a pillar be still; day and night
without break hold your attention within; then the state of equipoise will the
sound of Veena unfold. 458
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
Monday the moon showers
nectar; taste it and at once be rid of the world’s blazing fever. Let your
mind, held by Word, be inside at the door; then it will taste the nectar and be
drunk with ecstasy. 459
Each day of week the lord’s praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
Tuesday tune yourself to
the Truth within: boldly give up ways of the five evil ones; do not leave your
home’s treasure and go out, or you will earn the displeasure of the King. 459
Each day of week the lord’s praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
Wednesday let the wisdom
dawn that the Lord ever resides in the lotus of your heart; meet the Master and
realize that he and lord are one, and turn the inverted lotus upwards once
again. 459
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
Thursday throw away your
evil passions; discard the three and attach yourself only in the one. In Trikuti
within, where three rivers meet, bathe and wash away your sins. 460
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
Friday feast on ambrosia,
let this be your firm resolve. Within yourself; boldly enslave the five. A look
at other than the One let not your eyes ever crave. 460
Each day of week the lord’s praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win
Saturday stay still, be within your body. Light the inner lamp that your within and without may sparkle with radiance divine; in its brilliance let the shadow of your karmas fade. 460
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win.
If even a trace of love for
others lurks in your heart you will not gain entry into the mansion of your
Lord. He who dyed through devotion in the hue of divine love, his entire being,
O Kabir, becomes pure and true. 461
Each day of week the lord’s
praises sing; through the Master’s grace god’s kingdom win
