I Have Found a Sea of Love


I have found a sea of love, an inexhaustible flood; I have opened a treasure of spiritual knowledge, it diffuses the lustre of a million suns, arisen in thy worshipper’s souls. 
Unexpectedly, without any effort, I have heard the eternal secret, I have learned to know God. The seed of the high reunion has been enfolded in my own destiny. 
I have now beheld him in whose sight is all goodness, a sea of happy augury, the supreme power of mystic words. I have attained him, whose name is nectar, whose nature is pure, intellect free from passion. 
The very joy of peace and compassion is found in the joy, that accompanies the knowledge of the being and knowing God.
