3.
The rising sun says:"O stupid seeker, wake up!
You have a long way to go,
Although the Goal is yours."
The setting sun says:
"O stupid seeker, can you not see
That you have badly
And sadly failed?
Perhaps my rising brother-sun
Will give you another chance
Tomorrow
To reach your destination.
If you fail this time,
Who knows?
He may not give you
Another chance
In this God-realisation-promise-incarnation
Of yours."
Sri Chinmoy, My soul is free, Agni Press, 1994
