44. Enlightenment
SalvationIs the first enlightenment
In our inner eternal journey.
Liberation
Is the second enlightenment
In our heavenward eternal journey.
Realisation
Is the third and last
All-illumining and all-fulfilling
Enlightenment
In our eternal journey
Toward ever-transcending
Existence, Consciousness and Bliss.
Sri Chinmoy, Silence-seed and sound-fruit, Agni Press, 1975
