A is the starting-point of the world of sound: even so is the Great Original the starting-point of all that exists.
Of what avail is all thy learning if thou worship not the holy feet of Him of the perfect intelligence?
Whoso taketh refuge in the sacred feet of Him whose walk is among flowers, his days will be many upon the earth.
