Ambition, my friend unparalleled

```

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are helping my body

To come out of lethargy-night.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are helping my vital

To smash asunder

The heavy and binding shackles

Of frustration-slavery.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are helping my mind

To free its luminous vision

From the prison of teeming doubts.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are helping my heart

To free its marvellous peace

From the cave of torturing insecurity.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are helping my soul

To dream in and through me

Clearly, swiftly, powerfully

And triumphantly.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

You are serving my Beloved Supreme

To make me a perfect instrument of His,

Cheerfully, sleeplessly

And unreservedly.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

When I use you divinely,

I create not only a satisfaction-world

Within me,

But also a promise-world outside me;

I create a new dawn for myself

And a challenging and fulfilling reality

For the whole world.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

When I use you undivinely,

I destroy my inner world

That wants to grow and glow,

And I also destroy my outer world

That wants to ascend and transcend.

Ambition, my friend unparalleled,

I shall always use you in a divine way

So that at every moment

You can be proud of

My sincerity,

My dedication

And

My transformation. ```
