Who are You standing on my path?
Tell me.

You told me You would not allow me
to leave the proper path
and to move on the wrong path.

In front a deep pit lurks.
It is covered by a dark veil.

With my eyes,
I am unable to see it.
For, there is no end to obstacles.

The prison of ego,
the burden of knowledge,
intellect,
name and fame
all bind me.

Removing these heaps,
and taking on You all my load,
You taught me how to perform Your sadhana.

----------------------------------------

Who are You, who You stood in my way?
Let me know.
I requested You to leave my path,
but You did not let me go on that wrong path.

In front lies a huge ditch,
covered with cimmerian darkness.
My eyes never paid attention to see it.
Only because You hindered me, I escaped the fall.

Prisons of ego used to surround me.
They were bondages of knowledge,
intellect, name and fame.
Shattering those bondages,
You took my burdens,
and taught me the art of sadhana (meditation).
