284. Consolation
He sat at the foot of the skyFor consolation.
He sat in the heart of the sky
For consolation.
He sat on the top of the sky
For consolation.
No consolation!
At last he made his conscious oneness
With God-life perfect.
In his service-light he received
Not only consolation-illumination
But perfection-satisfaction
of the transcendental Heights.
Sri Chinmoy, Transcendence-Perfection, Agni Press, 1975
