Before I pray

Dag Hammarskjold Auditorium, United Nations, 4 March 1980

1.

```

My Supreme Lord,

Before I pray to You

For the possession-night,

May I pray to You for the renunciation-flame.

May I?

My Supreme Lord,

Before I pray to You

For the renunciation-flame,

May I pray to You for the acceptance-lamp,

May I?

My Supreme Lord,

Before I pray to You

For the acceptance-lamp,

May I pray to You for the oneness-column of light,

May I?

My Supreme Lord,

Before I pray to You

For the oneness-column of light,

May I pray to You for the surrender-sun,

May I?
