The Person the size of a thumb is like a flame without smoke, lord of what has been and what will be. He alone is today, and he alone tomorrow. This, truly, is that.
अंगूठे के बराबर पुरुष धुएँ से रहित ज्योति के समान है, भूत और भविष्य का स्वामी। वही आज है और वही कल भी। यही वह है।

Moods, circumstances and fortunes change from day to day, but the inner light is the same today and tomorrow. When the future feels uncertain, there is something in you that will still be there.
मनोदशा, परिस्थिति और भाग्य रोज़ बदलते हैं, पर भीतर की ज्योति आज और कल एक-सी है। जब भविष्य अनिश्चित लगे, तो तुममें कुछ है जो तब भी वहीं रहेगा।
