Blessing for Separation
O Thou,
The Cause and Effect of the whole universe,
The Source from whence we have come
And the Goal toward which all are bound
Receive this soul who is coming to Thee
Into Thy parental arms.
May Thy forgiving glance heal his [her, their] heart.
Lift him [her, they] from the denseness of the earth.
Surround him [her, them] with the Light
Of Thine own Spirit.
Raise him [her, them] up to heaven
Which is his true dwelling place.
We pray Thee, grant him [her, them] the blessing
Of Thy most exalted Presence.
May his [her,their] life upon earth
Become as a dream to his [her, their] waking soul
And let his [her, their] thirsting eyes behold
The glorious vision of Thy Sunshine.
Amen
--Hazrat Inayat Khan
