8. THE SONGS OF MY INNER FAMILY MEMBERS
Aspiration is the secret lifeOf my soul-seed.
Realisation is the sacred life
Of my heart-plant.
Revelation is the confident life
Of my mind-tree.
Manifestation is the inspiring life
Of my vital-flower.
Perfection is the fulfilling life
Of my body-fruit.
Sri Chinmoy, The Golden Boat, Part 1, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
