Victory’s Crown

O you who wrestled with the three-fold foe— 

Lucifer in thought, Ahriman in feeling’s cold, 

Asuras in the will that would deform the soul— 

And did not flee but stayed to make them whole 

Through Moral Imagination, Inspiration, Intuition’s art, 

Absorbing evil’s gifts with Mani’s gentle heart; 

You who united with the Christ in ether’s living flame, 

With Sophia’s wisdom and with Michael’s sword of name, 

And heard the still, small voice above the battle’s roar— 

To you the crown of life is given evermore. 

No longer bound by fear or death’s pretended sting, 

You walk as priests and kings within the thousand-year reign, 

Where New Jerusalem descends in every faithful deed 

And evil is transformed to serve the higher need. 

The white stone bears your new name written clear, 

The morning star shines bright, the hidden manna near; 

The pillar in the temple stands, your name in Life’s own book— 

All this the faithful remnant who forsook 

The sleep of materialism for the waking light of love. 

Victory is not a future distant throne; 

It is the crown already resting on the brow 

Of every soul who chose to grapple, not to bow 

Before the beast of binary cold or luciferic pride. 

Through gentleness the darkness is redeemed inside— 

And you, O remnant, bear the light into the age to come, 

Where Spirit-Self awakens and the war is won.
