He who has seen my Mother

can he hate his brother?

She loves everyone in the three worlds;

her heart cries for all.

With her there's no difference of caste,

no distinction between high and low;

all are the same.

If she sees a Candala

Like Rama with Guhak

she clasps him to her breast.

Ma is our Great Illusion, highest Nature, and

Father our highest Self;

that's why one feels love for all

we feel love for all.

If you worship the Mother

hating her children

she won't accept your puja;

the Ten-Armed One will not.

The day we forget the knowledge of difference

on that day only

will Ma come home to us.
