Neodämmerung (translation)

From delusion lead me to truth

From darkness lead me to light

From death lead me to immortality.

He who knows both knowledge and action,

With action overcomes death and with

Knowledge reaches immortality.

In him are woven the sky and the earth

And all the regions of the air, and in him

Rest the mind and all the powers of life.

Know him as the one and leave aside all

Other words. he is the bridge of

Immortality.

Beyond the senses is the mind, and beyond

The mind is reason, its essence. beyond

Reason is the spirit in man, and beyond this

Is the spirit of the universe, the evolver of

All.

When the five senses and the mind are still,

And reason itself rests in silence, then

Begins the path supreme.

Ya ya ya ya yada yadaya

Ya ya ya ya yada yada yada yada

Yada yada yada yada yada

And when he is seen in his immanence and

Transcendence, then the ties that have

Bound the heart are unloosened, the doubts

Of the mind vanish, and the law of karma

Works no more.
