Reveal Your Own Real Form

Reveal your own real form to me, Master.
You have assumed this physical form
 to lead souls to their salvation.
Show me now your other form
 that is inaccessible and boundless.
Let me see that form and be absorbed in it,
 and grant me the gift of fearlessness.
This physical form is also very dear to me,
 but let me experience that one through this one –
 the hidden through the manifest.
Without the help of this form nothing can be accomplished, for
 without the help of this form,
 how can you possibly reveal the other one?
This one is therefore to be greatly valued,
 but show me now the other one too –
 the one that is your eternal form,
 while you take on the physical to awaken souls.
I have learned this secret from your many explanations
 of the path of Surat Shabd.
Let my soul now merge in your Shabd form,
 which is truly your own, real form.
I live in constant fear of death and adversity –
 deliver me from this and make me fearless.
Merciful Radha Soami, benefactor of souls,
 help me realize the purpose of life.
