9. Father-Consciousness, Mother-Light

```

Father-Consciousness,

I need You

To claim You —

Your Vision’s Reality.

Without it I am lost

In ignorance-night.

Mother-Light,

I need You

To claim You —

Your Reality’s Perfection.

Without it I am captured

By pleasure-snares.

Therefore,

Father and Mother,

I need You two

More than You

Can possibly think.
