Yesterday he gave up
The spiritual life totally.He promised himself
That he would never think of God,Or speak about God,
Or even look at GodIf God appeared before him.
Today he hears from everyone
That God has made himHis choice instrument
To shatter the doubtsOf all human beings.
Now he says to himself,“Alas, good news has come
At such a wrong time!” ```From:Sri Chinmoy,Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 13, Agni Press, 1983
