Poems on Kindness

by: Sri Chinmoy

Simplicity, kindness
And forgiveness-
These three are  
The most powerful branches
Of the life-tree of Christianity.

Excerpt from My Religion by
Sri Chinmoy.


Kindness is not blindness. 
Kindness is oneness-awareness.
Blindness is failure:  
Failure within, failure without.

 

Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 3
by Sri Chinmoy.


 

Yesterday I discovered kindness in myself.    Today I see how beautiful and soulful I am.

Yesterday I discovered kindness in humanity.   Today I see how meaningful and fruitful humanity is.

 


The awakened mind  
May show kindness  
To those who not only do not deserve it
But also misuse it-alas!

 

 

My Lord tells me    
That my mind's cleverness-smile
Will never be a match  
For my heart's kindness-smile.

 

 

You can show your sweetest kindness    
Even to those  
Who are vehemently standing  
In your way.  
But under no circumstances
Must you surrender to their way.

 

 
Follow not  
Your blindness-mind;
Follow only
Your kindness-heart!
