III

Transliteration:

> Asato ma sad gamaya

> Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya

> Mrtyor ma amrtam gamaya.

Translation:

Lead me from the unreal to the Real.

Lead me from darkness to Light.

Lead me from death to Immortality.

Comment:

The unreal in us desires the pleasure-life of the finite. The Real in us aspires for the God-Life of the Infinite.

Darkness is the discoverer of the doubting and frustrated mind. Light is the discoverer of the aspiring and dedicated heart.

Death — where is the cat? Miaowing nowhere. Immortality — where is the lion? Roaring all-where.
