- LII.
- Whose son am I?
- The preserved Mānā (i.e. Jōsmīr),
- the great effulgence of the first life,
- the son of the great, first life,
- who pondered and recognized and desired His.
- From him came the Kannā of the souls.
- On the final day,
- when the souls leave their bodies,
- they will rejoice in him,
- embrace him, ascend
- and see the outer ether and the light dwelling.
- Praised be the great life in its light,
- the life is victorious.
