01B UNIVERSAL PRAYERS
राग, द्वेष, अज्ञान ए, मुख्य कर्मनी ग्रंथ; थाय निवृत्ति जेहथी, ते ज मोक्षनो पंथ.
raga, dvesha, ajnäna e, mukhya karma-ni grantha, thāya nivrutti jeha-thi, te ja mokshano pantha.
Attachment, Hatred, and Ignorance of Self are the three principal reasons for the bondage of karma to the soul. The path that diverts away from karma is the true path of liberation.

The darkness of ignorance was blinding my vision. A healing paste (the medicine of true Knowledge) has been applied. Now my inner eyes are open. To the Master who helped me, who removed the layers of ignorance and enabled me to see rightly Thumbly offer my appreciation and gratitude.
