317. If
If you are not humble,You will definitely stumble.
If you are not pure,
You can never be sure.
If you are not sincere,
You can never conquer fear.
If you believe,
Then you will not only receive
But you will also achieve
What God infinitely has
And eternally is.
Sri Chinmoy, Transcendence-Perfection, Agni Press, 1975
