41. Nobody needs me
True, you are Heaven’s representativeOn earth.
But alas, I am not sure
Of your compassion-light.
True, he is earth’s representative
In Heaven.
But alas, I am not sure
Of his sacrifice-height.
Poor me,
Heaven does not want me, my ignorance.
Earth does not need me, my indolence.
Sri Chinmoy, The Golden Boat, part 20, Agni Press, 1974
