Sri Chinmoy Ghose Poems

Another day, another day,
My Lord Supreme is far away.

Another day, my heart can be
The all giving breath of patience tree.
...

Do you know
What God told me the other day?
I am telling you
In top secrecy.
...

Once God's Forgiveness-Sun
Rises,
It never sets.
...

Only our eagerness-hearts
Are allowed to participate
In God-races
In the inner world.
...

If there is devotion,
Then if we mispronounce
God's Name,
He does not mind.
...

Now that I have
arrived at God's gate
I am totally free of fate
...

At the rim of sorrow
He found his heartless mind.
On the brink of despair
He found his soulless heart.
...

A yawning gulf between
My vision-tree and my reality-plant.
A yawning gulf between
The place I love to live and the place I live.
...

Concentration
Is
A divinely penetrating force.
...

A little joy have I of ceaseless joy,
A little day of timeless day.
Yet knows no bound this empty show of mine;
I march along a goalless way.
...
