Shall dawn on your eyes
If you can empty your mind
Of all complaints.

God does not want you to suffer
From a guilt-stricken conscience.
He wants you to forgive and forget
Your past
Once and for all
And begin a new life
With a new promise-dawn.

Locked inside your mind,
What can your poor soul
And your poor heart
Do for you?

Then give up fighting
For negativity
And learn the beautiful art
Of self-encouragement.”

In your own nature?

Do not think
Of your undivine qualities
All the time.
Indeed, that is the worst
Torment of all.

“Life and hope are inseparable. Life is the body, and hope is the intuitive divinity in us, the divinity that wants to transcend the reality which we presently are. Hope is man’s seeking, hope is man’s inner urge, hope is man’s upward flight into the Beyond.”
Sri Chinmoy, Fifty Freedom-Boats to one Golden Shore, part 2, Agni Press, 1974

“Divine surrender is the surrender that we make to our own highest part. Each individual has two realities: the higher reality and the lower reality. The lower reality is still unlit, obscure, impure; whereas the higher reality is all divine, all perfection. So we consciously try to bring our lower reality into the higher one for its illumination. This surrender is not made to somebody else, to a third person. No, this surrender is made to one’s own highest self.”

“If I cannot find peace within myself,
How can I offer even an iota of peace

Eventually peace must
Pervade our outer life
And

Hope abides; therefore I abide.
Countless frustrations have not cowed me.
I am still alive, vibrant with life.
The black cloud will disappear,
The morning sun will appear once again
In all its supernal glory.

“How can I be a better human being if I do not think of the Source? Who makes me good? Who makes me better? Who makes me best? Somebody who is infinitely better than I am, and that is God.”
