“My child, then give Me a soulful promise.”
My Lord Supreme, I do not know what a soulful promise is. I always break my promises. I promise in season and out of season, but never do I fulfil my promises. Such being the case, My Lord Supreme, please tell me what I can offer You instead of a soulful promise.
“My child, then tell Me that you will love Me divinely.”
My Lord Supreme, I do not know what divine Love is. How can I offer You divine Love when I do not know what divine Love feels like?
“My child, then give Me a fruitful cry. Cry for Me once, only once in your life.”
Alas, my Lord Supreme, I do not cry even for myself. How do You expect me to cry for You?
“My child, let Me tell you one thing. Each of us deserves a special name, a new name. Your new name will be a secret and clever unwillingness. And My new name will be an unreservedly open and compassionately stupid Forgiveness.From:Sri Chinmoy,AUM — Vol.II-6, No. 9, September 1980, Vishma Press, 1980
