The enlightened ones have known

Our lives can be just as radiant

We can leave behind

All of our footprints in the sands of time

 

All of our footprints - all that happens

Is in another boat in another deep sea of life

Hopelessly drowning in the broken boat of humanity

Behold again the courageous heart in brave communion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I found this in an introduction to Pranab Gita

It says: - Lifesong

 

Do anybody know the source?

All paths go

somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights, perceptions,

and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back

into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than

the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of

Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It

is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the

Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of

Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.

Btw, I had only run across this verse recently myself, because you

mentioned Yukteshvar. So I looked him

up thru Google. You might like to know this translation of his commentary is online.
