Whatever the Universe does, small or large,

through any being or communion of beings,

which helps further its purpose,

this act celebrates the Source of our unfolding story.

The essence of all praiseworthy qualities

constantly returns to the One Being

Give praise and celebrate!

This Being of beings mysteriously nurtures and sustains,

grows and brings to maturity

all worlds, universes and pluriverses,

all aspects of consciousness and knowledge,

all storylines and lesson plans.

This Source is the Original Womb of Love in all its aspects.

It says 'I can' on the day when all elements part company and return home,

when the threads of interweaving destiny unravel

and the invoices come due.

This Universe Being accepts the mission to resolve the unresolvable

at the time when time ends

just as it said 'yes' to the birth movements which began it.

Cutting through all distractions, addictions and diversions,

all conflicting taboos, theologies, offenses and misunderstandings,

we will act only from this Universe Purpose,

we will develop abilities only in service to the Real,

we will bow to and venerate only the deepest Source of all Life

and we will only expect help from this direction,

the ration of what we need, freely given by the One.

We ask you to reveal our next harmonious step.

Show us the path which says, "stand up, get going, do it!"

which resurrects us from the the slumber of the drugged

and leads to the consummation of Heart's desire,

like all the stars and galaxies in tune, in time, straight on.

The orbit of every being in the universe is filled with delight.

When each travels consciously,

a sigh of wonder arises at the expanse, the abundance.

This is not the path of frustration, anger or annoyance,

which only happens when we temporarily

lose the way and become drained,

roaming too far

from the Wellspring of Love.
