Those who offer themselves
For the betterment of the world
Are God’s chosen champions
In the inner world.
Sri Chinmoy, Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 24, Agni Press, 2002
Revelation
No more my heart shall sob or grieve.
My days and nights dissolve in God's own Light.
Above the toil of life, my soul
Is a Bird of Fire winging the Infinite.
I have known the One and His secret Play,
And passed beyond the sea of Ignorance-Dream.
In tune with Him, I sport and sing;
I own the golden Eye of the Supreme.
Drunk deep of Immortality,
I am the root and boughs of a teeming vast.
My Form I have known and realised.
The Supreme and I are one; all we outlast.
– Sri Chinmoy 1
