6695. BITTER IS THE SOUND-LIFE
Sweet was the sound-lifeBefore we accepted the life
Of self-giving spirituality.
But now extremely bitter is the sound-life,
For the silence-life has dawned
And is illumining our heart within
And our life without.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 67, Agni Press, New York, 1983
