An Easter Message from Paramahansa Yogananada:

~RESURRECT ME IN THEE~

 

"O Spirit, command my soul to arise from the sepulchre of littleness

into Thy vastness of everywhereness.

Lift its matter-caged consciousness into omnipresent freedom in

Thee.

Teach me to resurrect myself from dogmatism to the everlasting

life

in Thy Wisdom.

Awaken my divine sympathy from beneath the shroud of selfishness.

Resurrect my divine love from beneath the mound of attachment.

Bless me, that I may bring my soul out of the gloom-grave of evil

into the light of perpetual goodness.

Teach me to resurrect my soul from the tomb of temporal pleasures

into Thine everlasting happiness.

From beneath the soil of sorrow take my buried soul up into Thy

Joyous Self.

Awaken me, that I may arise from the tomb of flesh into the

consiousness of my cosmic body, extricating my soul from the bodily

clod to become omnipresent in Thee.

Resurrect my consiousness from the sepulchre of ever thirsty, mad,

earthly desires into the omnipresent, ever-abiding, ever-satisfying

Christ-Peace within me.

Even as Jesus, in only three days, resurrected himself from all

circumscriptions of his mortal body, so bless me that I may erelong

resurrect myself forever from the tomb of all my bad habits into

freedom in the Christ-Wisdom within me.

Pluck the lotus of my devotion from the mire of earthly

forgetfulness and wear it on Thy breast of ever awake remembrance of

me. Resurrect me in Thee." Om.
