We repent most especially for every lustful thought and every lustful action; for every lie; for all hypocrisy; for every promise given but not fulfilled; and for all slander and backbiting.

Australian Aarti By Francis Brabazon O glorious , eternal Ancient one Your face is a bright transcendental Sun Lighten this dark world and the tears I weep My heart Meher I give to You to keep.
Creator yet creationless you are Truth and Truth's Body Divine Avatar Who through, compassion the three worlds maintains Destroy this ignorance that life sustains.
These five lights are the whirling spokes of breath Of the world's wheel that bears me unto Death Unless you who are infinitely kind Break the wheels hub which is conditioned mind.
This incense is my love these fruits my art Which to please you I have shaped from my heart. Accept them as you would a simple flower That has no use beyond it's shining hour.
You are my Self I sing to you in praise And beg your love to bear me through the days Till you the Ever living Perfect One Illume my darkness with your shining Sun.
American Aarti By Hank Mindlin
How can we fathom your fathomless being? How can we know you we see with gross eyes A glimpse of your shadow has blinded our seeing How can your Glory e'r be realized Refrain Thoughts cannot reach you and words cannot speak you Infinite Ocean of unending bliss Though we beseech you, how can we seek you? How can the finite know limitlessness? Refrain At your command suns and stars give their light What in the worlds can I offer as mine? Even my gift of love would be naught in your sight But veiled reflections of your love Divine Refrain You are the Ancient One Lord of creation, How can we measure your true majesty , You are the Christ the Divine Incarnation Dear Lord please Don't be indifferent to me . Refrain You are the beginning and end of all things ; 'Tis you alone who assumes every role Sinners and saints, beggars and kings You are the source and you are the goal Refrain How can we fathom your fathomless being? How can we know you we see with gross eyes A glimpse of your shadow has blinded our seeing How can your Glory e'r be realized
Refrain Consumed is my mind in your fire and flame ; Accept it O Meher in Oneness Consumed is my heart , in the sound of your name Accept , O Meher my Aarti Accept, O Meher my Song. |
