Poems about the Heart
Poems about Heart
by Sri Chinmoy
O My Heart
O my heart,
I am exceedingly happy today.
Do you know why?
Today I have completely passed through
The longest dry desert of my doubting mind,
And now I am being blessed
By the beauty of your
God-fragrance-garden
~
O My Heart
O my heart,
You are your mounting aspiration-flames
To reach the highest illumination-heights.
Therefore, I am divinely and supremely
proud of you.
Look at my utterly stupid mind:
It is dying for death-desire-drugs.
~
HUMAN HEART AND DIVINE HEART
A sacred heart
Is God's inspiration.
A secret heart
Is man's imagination.
A crying heart
Is man s illumination.
A self-giving heart
Is God s realisation.
A surrendered human heart
Reaches God's transcendental Heights
A perfect and manifested heart
Is the pride of God's Reality-dream.
A surrendered divine heart
Is the smile of the Absolute Supreme.
~
My Heart
My heart is an eternal cry.
God's Heart is an eternal Smile.
They live together and grow together
Inside a concern-cave
And inside a Concern-Palace.

An Extract from a Talk on the Spiritual Heart
We have a loving heart, an aspiring heart, an inspiring heart, an illumining heart and a fulfilling heart. With our loving heart we welcome the world at large. With our aspiring heart we climb up to the highest pinnacle of divinity. With our inspiring heart we inspire not only the world within us, but also the world without-the world of God's entire creation. With our illumining heart we illumine our ignorance, darkness, imperfection and bondage. With our fulfilling heart we fulfil God the Dreamer in us, God the Player in us, God the Lover in us and God the Beloved Supreme in us.
