23. Two most deplorable mistakes
You achieved your God-realisationFar too soon;
Therefore, it was not as mature
As it could have been.
You started your God-manifestation
Far too soon;
Therefore, you are encountering
Too many uncompromising,
Undivine and hostile forces.
So you see, you have not made one,
But two most deplorable mistakes
In this life.
Sri Chinmoy, My Life-Tree, Agni Press, New York, 1975
