Divine Mother, fill me with Thy Peace. Cleanse my mind from all alien thoughts And make my heart pure. Guard me from all selfishness and harshness. Fill my heart with selfless love, humility, patience, and gentleness. Free my mind from ignorance and outwardness. Fill my mind with the light of understanding. Awaken in me such wisdom That I may seek all my strength and safety in Thee. May I never yield to weakness. Abide with me at every hour in my work and play. Without Thee no victory is possible, With Thee there can be no failure or defeat. May I always remember that Thou art the only Doer. May I ever remain as a tool in Thy hand. Give me sight that I may perceive Thee in all things. May I never fail to manifest Thee in all my thoughts, words, and deeds. Surround me with Thy protecting love and Thy abiding Peace. Grant me spiritual insight that I may know and do Thy will.
