Salat
Most Gracious Lord,
Master, Messiah
and Saviour of humanity, we greet Thee with all humility.
Thou art the First Cause and
the
Last Effect, the Divine Light and the Spirit of Guidance, Alpha and
Omega.
Thy Light is in all forms,
Thy Love
in all beings:in a loving mother, in a kind father, in an innocent
child,
in a helpful friend, and in an inspiring teacher.
Allow is to recognize Thee
in all
Thy Holy Names and Forms: as Rama, as Krishna, as Shiva, as Buddha; let
us know Thee as Abraham, as Solomon, as Zarathustra, as Moses, as
Jesus,
as Muhammed, and in many more Names and Forms, known and unknown to the
world.
We adore Thy Past, Thy
Presence
deeply enlightens our being, and we look for Thy Blessing in the
future,
O Messenger, Christ, Nabi, the Rasul of God! Thou whose heart
constantly
reaches upwards, Thou comest on earth with a Message, as a dove from
above
when dharma decayeth, and speakest the word that is put in thy mouth,
as
the light filleth the crescent moon.
Let the star of the Divine
Light
shining in thy heart be reflected in the hearts of thy devotees.
May the Message of God reach
far
and wide, illuminating and making the whole of humanity as one single
family
in the Parenthood of God. Amen

A torch in the darkness,

A rock in the weariness of

Thou, my Master, makest earth a paradise.
Thy thought giveth me
unearthly

Thy light illuminateth my
life's
path,
Thy words inspire me with
divine
wisdom,
I follow in thy footsteps,
which
lead me to the eternal goal.
Comforter of the broken
hearted,

Friend of the lovers of
truth, Blessed
