Imagination
Is birthless and deathless.
Its power
Is inexhaustible.

Imagination and Reason
Imagination does not
Care for reason.
Reason does not
Care for imagination.
The poet in me cries
For imagination-wings.
The philosopher in me cries
For reason-sword.
Imagination, Inspiration, Aspiration
I need imagination,
I need inspiration,
I need aspiration.
Imagination I need
To invite God.
Inspiration I need
To love God.
Aspiration I need
To serve God.

Imagination
Imagination, O imagination! How do I use my imagination?
I use my imagination to forget my past failures.
I use my imagination to brave my present challenges.
I use my imagination to welcome my future dawn.
I use my imagination to touch and feel my Lord's Compassion-Feet.
I use my imagination to drink deep my Lord's Nectar-Heart.
I use my imagination to see my Lord's Vision-Eye.
I use my imagination to touch my Lord's Assurance-Arms.
I use my imagination to become an exact prototype of my Lord's Heaven-Beauty.
I use my imagination to become a co-sharer of my Lord's earth-responsibility.
What is my imagination? My imagination is the harbinger of my aspiration-tree.
What is my aspiration? My aspiration is the builder of my realisation-palace.
What is my realisation? My realisation is my Lord's and my oneness-song.

"Imagination is more important than knowledge."
EINSTEIN
Anatole France comes one step ahead and makes bold to say: "To know is nothing at all; to imagine is everything." Verily, Tagore, the Master-poet of modern India, was the emblem of an all-fulfilling imagination.
