42. Silence
God's Silence-Light    Created me.
My silence-light
    Annoys the world,
    Confuses the world,
    Puzzles the world.
God's Silence-Height
    Immortalises me.
My silence-height
    Is the conscious imperfection,
    Constant imperfection,
    Of my non-acceptance of God's
    All-encompassing,
    All-embracing
    Reality on earth,
    Reality in Heaven.
Sri Chinmoy, Beauty-Drops, Agni Press, 1975
