5082. The real man in a genuine seeker
Not once but twice will you knowThe real man in a genuine seeker:
Once when you mercilessly criticise
His doubtful poison-mind —
Needless to say,
He will love you far beyond
Your imagination’s flight;
Once when you unreservedly love
His fruitful nectar-heart —
Needless to say,
He will immediately admire you unreservedly
For helping him find
His long-lost vision eye.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, part 51, Agni Press, 1982
