30. NO EYES HAVE WE

Thou art the All and beyond the All,
This truth we fail to believe.
Our ego never sees thy Will;
To ignorance vast we cleave.

Revolts of ours defy thy Smile
That leads all souls without
Within to thy Sea of rapture-fire
Where drowns our clay’s blind shout.
Sri Chinmoy, Flame-Waves, Sri Aurobindo Ashram, 1955
