Detached from NAME am i,
Disinterested in FAME am i,
Non-feverish of GAINS am i.

I remind myself again and again
of the immensity of this creation,
of my superb fortune and grace, and
of the goodness i have been blessed with.

I remember my true nature,
i know i am a bundle of truth-awareness-bliss,
of a form that glows, radiates and expresses the divine.

I am That only,
O Yes! i am this alone, unqualified.
