I have loved
I have loved Humanity. Humanity says, "No longer are you a stranger to me."I have loved Infinity. Infinity says, "No longer are you caught by space."
I have loved Eternity. Eternity says, "No longer will you be caught by time."
I have loved Immortality. Immortality says, "No longer will death be able to bind you."
At long last I have loved God. God says, "My child, from now on, you have bound Me in your divine embrace. You have bound Immortality, Infinity, Eternity and Humanity."
Sri Chinmoy, Songs of the Soul, Herder and Herder, 1971
