Lyrics:
Eight Magic Balls - Part I
Jah Says OM
Leave your thought-streams naturaly to the mind.
In his own nature There the Jah dwells
Otherwise he is the same form as the thought-streams.
Five-fold thought-streams, painful and not painful.
Jah is the teacher of even the ancients.
Not being conditioned by time
Right knowledge, wrong knowledge, fancy, sleep and memory.
Right knowledge is inference, tradition and genuine cognition.
Wrong knowledge is false, illusory, erroneous beliefs or notions.
Fancy is following after word-knowledge empty of substance.
Jah is the teacher of even the ancients.
Not being conditioned by time
Jah says Om.
Jah says Om.
Pray thr Jah continuesly with devotion and without interruption over a long period of time.
Desirelessness towards the seen and the unseen gives the consciousness of mastery.
This is signified by an indifference to the three attributes, due to knowledge of the Indweller.
Cognitive meditation is accompanied by reasoning, discrimination, bliss and the sense of 'I am.'
Jah is the teacher of even the ancients.
Not being conditioned by time
Jah says Om.
Jah says Om.

Pray, Pray, Pray
Deep sleep is the mode of the mind
which has for its foundation is nothingness.
Dont allow the memory to let the mental impressions to escape.
Control these thought-streams by practice and
do not attach to the things around you
So Pray, Pray, Pray, pray , pray, pray
Because Prayer is the effort to secure steadiness.
So if you prayed - then you just gained.
Disappearance of all your obstacles
Because if you prayed - then you just gained.

Grow through passion meditation pass the Equalminded contemplation
So just try to stop your mind until only slight impressions remains.
Passions, Sins and Concious mind moods
engaging us with Jah
Jah is dwelling within you, full and universal.
He is Untouched by actions, afflictions, impressions or results.
In God, the seed of omniscience is unsurpassed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disease, inertia and doubt,
lack of enthusiasm, laziness,
sensuality, mind-wandering,
missing the point, instability
these are the obstacles in our minds
- these are distractions of the mind
these are the obstacles in our minds
- these are distractions of the mind
Pain, despair and nervousness,
disordered inspiration and expiration
are together with our mind obstacles.
so prevent these obstacles,
reach for the one truth constantly.
reach for the one truth constantly
By cultivating friendliness towards happiness
and compassion towards misery,
gladness towards virtue and
indifference towards vice,
the mind becomes pure.
the mind becomes pure!
So reach for the one truth constantly.
reach for the higher truth constantly
reach for the higher truth constantly
and reach for the higher truth constantly
By retention of the energy
and mental equanimity

and conciousnes activity
and conciousnes activity
IT'l cause you mental steadiness
Or the state of sorrowless Light
Or the mind taking focus on become a frefree of compulsion
freed of compulsion

==========
Depending on the knowledge of dreams and sleep.
Or by meditation as desired.
The mastery of one in Union extends from the finest atomic particle to the greatest infinity.
When the agitations of the mind are under control, the mind becomes like a transparent crystal and has the power of becoming whatever form is presented.
knower, act of knowing, or what is known.
The argumentative condition is the confused mixture
of words with its right meaning, and knowledge.
When memory is purified and mind shines alone,
Then you are in non-argumentative condition
In this way the meditative and the ultra-meditative having the subtle for their objects are also described.
The province of the subtle terminates with pure matter that has no pattern or distinguishing mark.
These constitute seeded contemplations.
On attaining the purity of the ultra-meditative state there is the pure flow of spiritual consciousness.
Therein is the faculty of supreme wisdom.
The wisdom obtained in the higher states of consciousness is different from that obtained by inference and testimony as it refers to particulars.
The habitual pattern of thought stands in the way of other impressions.
With the suppression of even that through the suspension of all modifications of the mind, contemplation without seed is attained.

Part Two
on Spiritual Disciplines
By living in Austerity, the study of sacred texts, and the dedication of actions to God creates your Mystic Union.
---
Reduce the troubles of your life and fix your mind on Jah
Be free from all impurities and agitations, or on One's Own Reality
----
Avoid five troubles of your life: ignorance, egoism, attachment, aversion, and the desire to cling to life.
Whether they are dormant or attenuated, partially overcome or fully operative - ignorance is the breeding place for all the others
Ignorance is taking the non-eternal for the eternal, the impure for the pure, evil for good and non-self as self.
----
These patterns when subtle may be removed by developing their contraries. Their active afflictions are to be destroyed by meditation.
----
Egoism is the identification of the power that knows with the instruments of knowing.
Attachment is that magnetic pattern which clusters in pleasure and pulls one towards such experience.
Aversion is the magnetic pattern which clusters in misery and pushes one from such experience.
Flowing by its own energy, established even in the wise and in the foolish, is the unending desire for life.
----------------------------------
When the roots exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
The impressions of works have their roots in afflictions
and arise as experience in the present and future births.
They have pleasure or pain as their fruit,
according as their cause be virtue or vice.
When the roots exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
When the root exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
All is misery to the wise because
of the pains of change, and anxiety,
Through purificaytory acts
The grief which has not yet come
may be avoided.
When the roots exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
When the root exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
The superimposition is
The cause of the avoidable
of the external world onto the unseen world.
The experienced world
consists of the elements
and the senses in play.
When the root exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
When the root exists, its fruition is birth, life and experience.
---------------------------------
It is of the nature of cognition, activity and rest,
and is for the purpose of experience and realization.
The stages of the attributes effecting the experienced world are the specialized and the unspecialized, the differentiated and the undifferentiated.
----
The indweller is pure consciousness only, which though pure, sees through the mind and is identified by ego as being only the mind.
The cause of the association is ignorance.
The very existence of the seen is for the sake of the seer.
Although Creation is discerned as not real for the one who has achieved the goal, it is yet real in that Creation remains the common experience to others.
The association of the seer with Creation is for the distinct recognition of the objective world, as well as for the recognition of the distinct nature of the seer.
Liberation of the seer is the result of the dissassociation of the seer and the seen, with the disappearance of ignorance.
-------------------------
The continuous practice of discrimination
is the means of attaining liberation.
Steady wisdom manifests in seven stages.
On the destruction of impurity by the constant practice
of the limbs of Union, the light of knowledge
reveals the faculty of discrimination.
The eight limbs of Union are self-restraint in actions,
fixed observance, posture,
regulation of energy, mind-control in sense engagements, concentration, meditation, and realization.
Self-restraint in actions includes abstention from violence, from falsehoods, from stealing, from sexual engagements, and from acceptance of gifts.
These five willing abstentions are not limited by rank, place, time or circumstance and constitute the Great Vow.
Be - content, be pure and study the Jah.
When improper thoughts disturb the mind, there should be constant pondering over the opposites.
Improper thoughts and emotions such as those of violence-
whether done, caused to be done, or even approved of-
indeed, any thought originating in desire, anger or delusion,
whether mild medium or intense-
do all result in endless pain and misery.
--------------
When one is confirmed in non-violence,
hostility ceases in his presence.
When one is firmly established in speaking truth,
the fruits of action become subservient to him.
All jewels approach him who is confirmed in honesty.
When one is confirmed in celibacy, spiritual power is gained.
When one is confirmed in non-possessiveness,
the knowledge of the why and how of existence is attained.
--
Get Supreme happiness is through contentment.
Overcome distractions focusing on Jah
---
From purity follows a withdrawal from enchantment
over one's own body as well
as a stoping of desire for physical contact with others.
As a result of contentment there is purity of mind,
one-pointedness, control of the senses,
and fitness for the vision of the self.
Through sanctification and the removal of impurities,
there arise special powers in the body and senses.
By study comes communion with the Lord in the Form most admired.
Realization is experienced by making the Lord the motive of all actions.
The posture should be steady and comfortable.
In effortless relaxation, dwell mentally on the Endless with utter attention.
From that there is no disturbance from the dualities.
When that exists, control of incoming and outgoing energies is next.
It may be external, internal, or midway, regulated by time,
place, or number, and of brief or long duration.
Energy-control which goes beyond the sphere of
external and internal is the fourth level- the vital.
In this way, that which covers the light is destroyed.
Thus the mind becomes fit for concentration.
When the mind maintains awareness, yet does not mingle with the senses,
nor the senses with sense impressions, then self-awareness blossoms.
In this way comes mastery over the senses.

Part Three
meditation and not of the mind is realization.
One-pointedness is steadfastness of the mind.
Unbroken continuation of that mental ability is meditation.
That same meditation when there is only consciousness
of the object of meditation and not of the mind is realization.
The three appearing together are self-control.
By mastery comes wisdom.
The application of mastery is by stages.
The three are more powerfull than the restraints.
Even that is external to the seedless realization.
The important aspect is the union of the mind
with the moment of absorption, when the outgoing thought disappears
and the absorptive experience appears.
From sublimation of this union
comes the peaceful flow of unbroken unitive cognition.
The contemplative transformation of this is equalmindedness,
witnessing the rise and destruction of distraction
as well as one-pointedness itself.
22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222
The mind becomes one-pointed when the subsiding and rising thought-waves are exactly similar.
In this state, it passes beyond the changes of inherent characteristics, properties and the conditional modifications of object or sensory recognition.
The object is that which preserves the latent characteristic, the rising characteristic or the yet-to-be-named characteristic that establishes one entity as specific.
The succession of these changes in that entity is the cause of its modification.
By self-control over these three-fold changes (of property, character and condition), knowledge of the past and the future arises.
The sound of a word, the idea behind the word, and the object the idea signfies are often taken as being one thing and may be mistaken for one another. By self-control over their distinctions, understanding of all languages of all creatures arises.
By self-control on the perception of mental impressions, knowledge of previous lives arises.
By self-control on any mark of a body, the wisdom of the mind activating that body arises.
By self-control on the form of a body, by suspending perceptibility and separating effulgence therefrom, there arises invisibility and inaudibilty.
Action is of two kinds, dormant and fruitful. By self-control on such action, one foresees the time of death.
