Today you have given
O Master!
Today You have given me many
comforts and pleasures,
But tomorrow You may take
them away.
Today You have given me good
health and fitness,
But tomorrow my body may
become ill and frail.
Today You have given me sweet
relationships,
But tomorrow, they may bid me
farewell.
Today You have given me name,
fame, and wealth,
But tomorrow I may become poor
and insecure or a laughing stock.
Therefore, O Benevolent Lord!
May I never become arrogant and
disregard anyone. May I never take
my loved ones for granted. In the
favourable times may I not start
believing that I am invulnerable.
When all is going well may I not
imagine that it’s all because of my
intelligence and competence and
that I don’t need You anymore.
When nothing is going well may
I never see it as Your curse.
Because You have a purpose
behind all what You do and that is:
I must remember You, come to You
and become One with You.
Om Peace Peace Peace
