6482. The seeds of faith and security
It is the hostile forcesIn the inner world —
Not those in the outer world —
That try to take you away
From your spiritual life.
These hostile forces take your faith
And give you doubt,
Take your security
And give you insecurity.
But as long as you are vigilantly cultivating
The seeds of faith and security
In the inner world,
You do not have to worry.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, part 65, Agni Press, 1983
