Godliness Poem by Margaret Alice Second

Lobsang claims a mantra is
certain words chosen by the
spiritual Masters for disciples
to repeat without knowing the
meaning though effect is sure

Following his example I listen
to Genesis 1 read in Hebrew,
trusting this long mantra will
be just as effective in my life,
my brain is slow to learn the

Hebrew tongue, but I believe
the Holy Words have power
to penetrate my mind - and
the Jewish ideal of a God
teaching them freedom

And integrity as highest ideal,
makes we wish to join in the
purity of ideal and life, when
the name of God is replaced
with the words Love and Life

Then Godliness is the alpha
and omega of my little life….
