The sword breaks through and cuts down the demons of the mind and body. This beautiful and powerful weapon adorns the battlefield of life.

It is as an extension of the arm, unbreakable, terribly fast, it’s awesome splendor overshadows even the sun.

It protects the peace and happiness of the saints and destroys any powerful negative energy. It has erased the negativity and guilt that I carry. I seek its refuge.
