My desires are many and my cry is pitiful, but ever didst thou save me by hard refusals; and this strong mercy has been wrought into my life through and through.
Day by day thou art making me worthy of the simple, great gifts that thou gavest to me unasked---this sky and the light, this body and the life and the mind---saving me from perils of overmuch desire.
There are times when I languidly linger and times when I awaken and hurry in search of my goal; but cruelly thou hidest thyself from before me.
Day by day thou art making me worthy of thy full acceptance by refusing me ever and anon, saving me from perils of weak, uncertain desire.
Very nice and strong desire... beautifully explained.
ReplyDeleteOh God !Awake my desires to get only Your Love...Very nice.
ReplyDeleteDesire for our own happiness always leads to greed or anger depending on the outcome. Hence desire all for the sake of beloved/God and always you will be happy with whatever outcome. Nicely explained..Swamiji.. thanks
