“Not because I am a poet,
Not because I am a philosopher,
But because I am a God-lover,
I see my Beloved Supreme
In each and every human being.
All human beings
Are my heart’s brothers and sisters,
And the whole world
Is my oneness-home.”

Sri Chinmoy, Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 190, Agni Press, 1993

“God’s Beauty in my body
Fades at God’s choice Hour.
God’s Beauty in my heart
Remains permanent.
God’s Beauty in my soul
At every moment increases
At a very high speed.”

Sri Chinmoy, Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 190, Agni Press, 1993
