Guest guest Posted June 6, 2001 Report Share Posted June 6, 2001 FORSAKING GOD <br><br>At midnight the would-be ascetic announced: <br>"This is the time to give up my home and seek for God. Ah, who has held me so long in delusion here?" <br><br>God whispered, "I", but the ears of the man were stopped. With a baby asleep at her breast lay his wife, peacefully sleeping on one side of the bed. <br><br>The man said, "Who are ye that have fooled me so long?" <br>The voice said again, "They are God", but he heard it not. <br>The baby cried out in its dream, nestling close to its mother. <br>God commanded, "Stop, fool, leave not thy home", but still he heard not. <br><br>God sighed and complained, "Why does my servant wander to seek me, forsaking me?" <br><br> RABINDRANATH TAGORE<br>---------------------------<br>Tat twam asi<br>UMA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
