Countless Worlds; One Source
There are worlds and worlds
Below us.
There are worlds and worlds
Above us.
In the end,
In the end
You’ll grow tired Searching them all.
The sacred scriptures
Say this
With one voice
There are 18,000 worlds,
The scriptures say,
Countless worlds.
But the Source Beyond the Source
Is only One.
Writing this down,
It becomes a written record.
But in time
When what is written
Will be destroyed.
Nanak,
What is truly great
Is to know Yourself.
Guru Nanak
