Flame of Liberty at Alma Tunnel, Paris. Photo Credit: The Telegraph (London).Worlds there are without suns,
covered up with darkness.
To these after death go the ignorant
slayers of the Princess.
Without love there is no life . . .
One who sees all beings in the Beloved,
and the Beloved in all beings,
hates none.
In the heart of all things,
of whatever there is in the universe,
dwells the Queen of Hearts.
She alone is the reality.
Wherefore, renouncing vain appearances,
rejoice in her.
-- Isha Upanishad, v. 1-4
