521. Since everything is in the hands of God

I have insulted the world;
I deserve a severe punishment.
But I must not
Be frightened to death,
Since
Everything is in the Hands of God.

I have criticised God;
I deserve a severe punishment.
But I must not
Be frightened to death,
Since
Everything is in the Hands of God.

I have doubted myself;
I deserve ceaseless punishment.
And the law of Karma
Shall dog me and dog me and dog me.
Sri Chinmoy, The Dance of Life, part 11, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1973
