Belief, faith, obedience

In their belief, they follow

What they have heard from without;

They comply with what they are told, and

In their humility,

They submit to the law and

Grow in righteousness,

Hopeful of final union.



b.

What they have heard from within;

They conform to spirit’s whisperings and

In absence of Self,

They harmonize their lives to spirit and

Grow in sanctity,

Certain of eventual union.
