705. MY YOUNGER SELF AND MY OLDER SELF
My younger self, ego,Tells me that I can be happy
By being separated from the oneness-soul.
My larger self, oneness universal,
Tells me that there is no such thing
As ego-separativity.
It is all oneness-song,
Oneness-perfection,
Oneness-reality.
I and my older self together shall stay,
Together shall sing,
Together shall dance.
Sri Chinmoy, Transcendence-Perfection, Agni Press, New York, 1975
