Keep your heart’s door open. You will become the purest man. Keep your ego’s door closed. You will become the surest man.
Sri Chinmoy, Meditations: food for the soul, Aum Centre, New York, 1970
If You but knew, Father,
What I have done for You:
Planted and raised a climbing tree
For You to dance on its top, smiling free.
If You but knew, Father,
What I have done for You.
I have become the world's lowest slave
Your Breath to serve in man, the grave.
"If you but knew, child,
What I ever think of you.
You are My Life's revealing
Soul, You are My Vision's fulfilling Goal."
