I am the wetness in water
the light in the moon and the sun;
I am Om in the Vedas.
“Om” is God’s magic word.
I am the manliness in men
and the smell of the earth
and the brightness in fire.
I am life in living things.
I am the seed in all beings.
I am the wisdom in men’s minds.
I am the strength of the strong
and the wish in your heart.
Everyone thinks that the things in the world
are real,
but only I, God, am real and unchanging. Everything else is make believe.
Only people who understand God can
understand this.
Only the wise can understand
that God alone is real.
