47 The Animal, ...
THE ANIMAL,
THE HUMAN
AND THE DIVINE IN ME
The animal in a destructive man
Wants to live unchanged.
The human in a frustrated man
Wants to die unchanged.
The divine in an aspiring man
Wants to change and live-
Wants to change for himself,
Wants to live for God.
Excerpt from The Golden Boat, Part 1 by Sri Chinmoy
