A nice quote

[Guest guest]

Namaste!

 

That was indeed great! Is the quote from "Wuthering

Heights", cosidered to be her masterpiece? I read her

works in my teens. Probably because I was not still

conversant with philosophical ideas, particularly

non-dualistic, such wonderful gems escaped my

attention. I think I should now reread the Brontes -

both Emile and Charlotte. Theirs was a malancholy

existence, being eaten away by deadly cosumption.

Even then, their thoughts were exalted as your quote

now proves. Advaitic knowledge is everywhere! Thanks,

Shri Madhavan.

 

Pranams to everyone.

I came across these lines of Emily Bronte, which I would like to share with the

members of this group

 

"Though earth and man were gone,

And suns and universes cease to be,

And Thou wert left alone,

Every existence would exist in Thee."

Dear Shri Madhavan,

 

Thanks for sending the whole poem. I had not read it

before. Bronte was a passion with me in my very young

days. I think I should look for all her works now that

I am able to find new meanings in her writings. I

believe that should be possible through the net.

 

Best regards.

Namaskaram

 

I am glad that you liked the quotation. It is actually from her "Last

Lines".

I give below the entire poem.

 

No coward soul is mine,

No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere:

I see Heaven's glories shine,

And faith shines equal, arming me from fear.

 

O God within my breast,

Almighty, ever-present Deity!

Life--that in me has rest,

As I--undying Life--have power in Thee!

 

Vain are the thousand creeds

That move men's hearts: unutterably vain;

Worthless as wither'd weeds,

Or idlest froth amid the boundless main,

 

To waken doubt in one

Holding so fast by Thine infinity;

So surely anchor'd on

The steadfast rock of immortality.

 

With wide-embracing love

Thy Spirit animates eternal years,

Pervades and broods above,

Changes, sustains, dissolves, creates, and rears.

 

Though earth and man were gone,

And suns and universes cease to be,

And Thou were left alone,

Every existence would exist in Thee.

 

There is not room for Death,

Nor atom that his might could render void:

Thou--Thou art Being and Breath,

And what Thou art may never be destroyed.

 

Madhavan
