I Love, I Love
Love, love, love, love!
This is the source
Of inspiration-light
And aspiration-delight.
– Sri Chinmoy. (Source)
I Love, I Love
Where borders have been ravaged
and you have been flung far beyond
the core of home,
touch your heart and say,
I love, I love.
When you have become a skeptic,
a non-believer in the game and
in yourself, it’s most precious cargo,
touch your heart and say,
I love, I love.
When all your actions weep with indecision
and mind becomes an enemy
which can no longer console,
touch your heart and say,
I love, I love.
And even if love is a sour notion.
(which will be the truth),
Let it take you beyond inconsolable brooding,
beyond a seemingly irrevocable loneliness,
until you once more believe
in the ease of yourself,
in the light of your being,
in the I love, I love, I love.
– Bhikshuni Weisbrot.
