Inheriting The Divine Spark Poem by RAJ NANDY

INHERITING HIS DIVINE SPARK

You remain boundless O Lord within the
bounded,
You remain formless within the formed!
You are limitless though present within the
limited,
Forever retaining Your infinite and eternal
form!
Within our perishable form Your divine spark
resides,
May we ignite that spark into a glowing candle
light;
To light up other lives and dispel all gloom, -
With this flame burning forever bright!
Though those religious fanatics blow up that
spark into a raging fire,
To devour other lives and their soul entire!
HIS divine spark must be handled with caution;
When used diligently we earns our salvation,
And when misused it becomes our hell fire, with
eternal damnation!
