IN A MINUTE

In a minute

I shall meditate on God.

Lo, God is crying with joy.

In a minute

I can realise God.

Lo, God is running with joy.

In a minute

I can and I shall manifest God.

Lo, God is flying with joy.

Sri Chinmoy

Durch die regelmässige Radioarbeit im Radio RASA kam mir ein paar Sufi-Poems in die Hand.

Das Buch der Inschrift trägt die Züge aller Geschöpfe. In der Niederschrift von Gut und Böse wurde die Feder stumm. Das Unwiderufliche war festgesetzt und festgestellt schon vor der Zeit.

Today I visited a mountain chapel on 1045 m altitude in Switzerland. It is a cute, small chapel and the colours inside full of a very intensive green light. I was so inspired when I found a saying from Tagore, that I would like to share it with you.

It is in German:

Ich schlief und träumte, das Leben wäre Freude.
Ich erwachte und sah, das Leben war Pflicht.
Ich handelte und siehe, die Pflicht war Freude

Here my translation in English:

I slept and dreamt that life would be joy.

Vous faites parties de ma vie, ces quelques mots vous sons dédiées pour ne pas s'oublier, car ou l'oubli se trouve aucun souvenir n'existe.

I must thank Savyasachi for reminding me how much Guru likes to listen to our New Year resolutions. Sri Chinmoy enjoyed it so much when his students spoke about their new resolutions (both personal and manifestation wise) at those precious Christmas Trip functions.

So, here are some of my resolutions for the New Year (I know they may seem puny to you, but I rather be realistic and achieve those, than heroic and achieve little or none).

I was fortunate enough to record Sri Chinmoy's life for 22 years in video and photo format. At the moment I am browsing through my archive and early masters for VHS tapes and every day I am discovering new memories, new treasures and new secrets of our great Guru. By mid 2008 I should finish my collection of 100 DVD's and then I certainly will continue with special features and themes. Certainly Sri Chinmoy's body of work gives enough content for all of us to assimilate and enjoy for the rest of our lives.

I am quite impressed to be able to leave comments, formatted using reStructuredText.

Very nice addition to Priyadarshan.org

Thank-you so much to Rintu Chakravarthy for having edited and corrected the lyrics for Sakali Tomare Ichha.

It is because of our learned and wisdom-flooded Bengali doyen, Rintu the Illustrious (as Prachar so well put it), that many of us came to know of this all-time Shyama sangit favourite.

Thank you!

Only now I became aware of this beautiful article by Prachar, The Guru-Songs of the Song-Guru.

A seeker with a golden pen, not just a golden voice.
