5829. Many have come, many have left

Many have come
Into the Supreme’s Golden Boat;
Many have left.
Many have appeared
And many have disappeared.
Many are outwardly following the spiritual life,
But inwardly they are elsewhere,
Millions of miles away.
Again, some seekers are inwardly with God,
But outwardly they want to lead another life —
A life of lethargy, indulgence, disobedience,
Unconscious if not conscious self-deception,
Plus self-mockery.
