Body, Mind and Soul

If the mind is the intellect

A store for our memory,

A seat for our thoughts,

From cobwebs keep it clean.

 

If the soul is an ideal,

A principle for what man strives,

Keep an image of the self,

A portrait of the man.

 

If the body is the mass,

The bugs are a disease,

Remove the flaws in the system,

One by one.

 

The body, mind and soul,

Together, they define the man,

A house for the spirit,

With water wash it clean.

 

We start our existence upon this earth

In a state of divine grace;

 

The way to devotion

Is cleanliness of body, mind and soul,

These are the pillars,

Of the temple of man.
