The word "Khatum" can be translated as "Closing Recital" and
"Placing a Seal," and is pronounced with the "kh" as in the German "ach" and
with the emphasis on the first syllable.
O Thou, Who art the Perfection of Love, Harmony, and Beauty,
The Lord of heaven and earth,
Open our hearts, that we may hear Thy Voice, which constantly cometh from
within.
Disclose to us Thy Divine Light, which is hidden in our souls,
that we may know and understand life better.
Most Merciful and Compassionate God,
Give us Thy great Goodness;
Teach us Thy loving Forgiveness;
Raise us above the distinctions and differences which divide men;
Send us the Peace of Thy Divine Spirit,
And unite us all in Thy Perfect Being.
Amen.
Repeat 11 times “Disclose to us Thy Divine Light”
Warner of coming dangers,
Wakener of the world from sleep,
Deliverer of the Message of God,
Thou art our Saviour.
The sun at the dawn of creation,
The light of the whole universe,
The fulfilment of God's purpose,
Thou the life eternal, we seek refuge in thy loving enfoldment.
Spirit of Guidance,
Source of all beauty, and Creator of harmony,
Love, Lover, and Beloved Lord.
Thou art our divine ideal.
O Thou, Who art the Maker, Moulder, and Builder of the universe, build with
Thine own hands the Universel, our Temple for Thy divine Message of Love,
Harmony, and Beauty.
Amen
