Together stay, together play
The murmuring of the life-river dies    When it reaches the peace-ocean.
The functioning of the unlit mind ceases
    When the soul embraces the mind.
The dancing of the heart begins
    When meditation and dedication
    Together stay,
    Together play.
Sri Chinmoy, Meditation: humanity's race and Divinity's Grace, part 1, Agni Press, New York, 1974
