If the traveller discovers a guide on that Path,
Why should he decline to accept this sovereignty.(379)
If the seed of truth is sowed into the garden of the heart,
Then the veil of ignorance is lifted away from the core.(380)
If the godly meditation lodges in their hearts,
They possess the diamond-studded eternal throne.(381)
Through their every hair, the aroma of the truthfulness is emitted,
And every one is invigorated by the fragrance of their company.(382)
Their bodies would not renounce the divine name,
Had the reverend preceptor shown them the way.(383)
The life’s nectar is retained in the inner most of the heart,
But, without the preceptor, the world cannot know it.(384)
