```

The seekers of the hoary past

Prayed mostly for the inner strength

To realise God.

The seekers of today

Are praying mostly for the outer strength

To manifest God.

The seekers of tomorrow

Will pray soulfully

For the inner strength

And the outer strength

To both realise and manifest God.

When God sees they have realised Him

And manifested Him,

He will grant them a very special boon:

God will transform

The entire earth-consciousness

In and through these

Specially selected instruments

Of His.
