The Goal is won
28 April was the third anniversary of Sri Chinmoy's completion of //The Goal Is Won//, a book of 360 poems written in 24 hours. In honour of that achievement, a few poems from the book are reprinted here.The bridge
I was the frustration-despair-bridgeBetween
My vital’s first dark hour
And
My body’s last deep sleep.
I am the rapture-treasure-bridge
Between
My heart’s birthless hour
And
My soul’s deathless life.
