The Inner Light

Start your weekend with positive vibes with inspirational excerpts from the acclaimed book, ‘Homage Unto Ahura Mazda’ by Dasturji Dr. Maneckji Naserwanji Dhalla of Karachi.

Thou art eternal light, Ahura Mazda. Thy very nature is light. Be Thou my light. O lord of light. I grope in the dark: scatter the darkness. Shed Thy guiding light on my darkened path and led me onward on my way to Thy abode of eternal light. Let Thy radiance fall upon me that I may live in Thy light.

Like the owl that shuns the light, the sinner sees not Thy light and, seeing not Thy light, he sees not Thee. Man veils eyes when he looks in the face of the brilliant sun. Immeasurably bright is Thy spiritual light than the physical light of the sun. As the rose unfolds its petals to the light of the sun. So help me, Ahura Mazda, to unfold my light to Thy light by my faithful adherence to Ashn’s righteousness.

On deep dark ocean of life is the barque of my life moving. Be Thou by my side at the helm, I pray. Keep watch over it and guide me to the waves of Thy devine light to land me secure on the yonder shores of Thy heavenly regions.

The light that within the temple of my heart flickers and burns low through my carelessness. Forgive my negligence and let it not fade from my soul. Replenish it in Thy unfailing kindness and inspire me to tend it with devoted care. Let Thy physical light shine over me from above and let Thy spiritual dart into my soul and illumine it from within. May Thy light flood my mind and my heart and inspire me to live by Thy inner light. O Thou that livest in those lights highest of the high, Ahura Mazda!
