My Lord,
The more I satisfy You,The more You demand.
Before You wanted from meOnly love, devotion and surrender.
Now You have added obedience.If I start obeying You,
Then You will inventSomething more!
"My child,
You failed miserablyIn your love-devotion-surrender-examination.
I want you to studyThe obedience-course,
Which is abundantly easier."And, my Lord,
If I fail in Your obedience-course,Will You have something
Even easier?"My child,
Yes, I will have somethingFor you
Easier than the easiest —My last resort —
A sesquipedalian caneAnd
An iron rod!"My Lord,
Before You go that far,I am immediately starting
My obedience-love-devotion-surrender-life.I shall obey You
Most sincerely.I shall start loving You
Most sincerely.I shall devote myself
To Your serviceMost sincerely.
I shall give YouMy unconditional surrender
Most sincerely."Then, My child,
Come, come, comeAnd sit beside Me
On My Golden Throne." ```From:Sri Chinmoy,My Lord's Lotus-Feet versus my devotion-heart, part 3, Agni Press, 1998
