216. WHEN I WAS A SEA OF DESIRE
When I was a sea of desireAnd nothing else
I was so happy
That my desire-power
Drowned God and His best daughter, Light.
When I shall be a sea of aspiration
And nothing else
I shall be so happy
That my aspiration-power
Shall drown Satan and his best daughter, Power.
Sri Chinmoy, Europe-Blossoms, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
