My salvation lies -
In moving away from:
All elements,
Which are not good, true,
Or, necessary for my existence.

I pledge...
At this point of my life,
I must surely show myself,
The fervent path to freedom.
The sparks have already ignited!
Reality of a new phase has begun.

I pledge...
My mind will not succumb
To compound my ignorance.
Instead, my mind in stillness
Shall empower my reasoning
To destroy my egoistical tendencies.

I pledge...
My salvation lies -
In moving away from:
All elements,
Which are not good, true,
Or, necessary for my existence.
