It still with devoted faith, and let not the world entangle your thoughts. Settle firmly the king of Pandhari in your heart; then further steps will present themselves to you. Offer no worship to any God; no counting of beads, no penance, no meditation. If you consider anything your own, observe, you will not fail to be reborn. How many times have you entered a body already? Why do you not recognize your opportunity now? Wake up and seize it, and learn what this joy is like. What you can gain there is a secret easily learned; weigh it in the scales in the light of your own experience. Wake up, says Tuka, and in this one life break off from you the fetters of the world.
