Selections from Service Trees vol.1
My Lord,
You have commanded me
To offer You
Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees.
I shall obey Your absolute Command.
~
Earth's cry ascends,
But before it touches Heaven's Eye,
It returns.
~
Heaven's Smile descends,
But before it feels earth's heart,
It returns.
~
Today my heart and I
Are exceedingly happy,
For we are seeing my mind's
Ego-balloon
Losing its altitude very rapidly.
~
It is not at all a difficult task
For the mind to become
Deliberately anti-divine.
~
An Avatar is he
Who receives from God Himself
God's own Dreams
For God's full manifestation
Here on earth.
~
You profess yourself
To be a wise seeker.
Then how is it that you still live
In your mind-desire-jungle?
