V — Some inner qualities

Obedience, inner and outer

```

Inner obedience, inner obedience:

What is it,

If not a divine opportunity?

Outer obedience, outer obedience:

What is it,

If not a glowing beauty?

My inner obedience

Carries me to my Lord Supreme

Sooner than at once.

My outer obedience

Brings me to my Lord Supreme

Slowly, steadily and unerringly.

```
