O SON OF DUST!
Blind thine eyes, that thou mayest behold My
beauty; stop thine ears, that thou mayest hearken
unto the sweet melody of My voice; empty thyself
of all learning, that thou mayest partake of
My knowledge; and sanctify thyself from riches,
that thou mayest obtain a lasting share from the
ocean of My eternal wealth. Blind thine eyes,
that is, to all save My beauty; stop thine ears
to all save My word; empty thyself of all learning
save the knowledge of Me; that with a clear vision, a
pure heart and an attentive ear thou mayest enter
the court of My holiness.
