Unity

Sonnet — An Invocation to The Master #17

A knowledge at my doorstep wore a form of Thee,
Bright as sun by firmaments draped.
It entered my heart with pomp and fanfare of Thy infinity,
Engulfing my little emotions in a blaze of Thy light.

Thy mind has become my mind’s enamoured silence,
All its divisions ceased in Thy radiant eternity.
I now see man and beast as forms of Thy one bliss,
Strum-notes of Thy vast indivisibility.

My feet are now a measure of Thy spirit’s pace,
My body is Thy temple of perfect surrender.
My limbs bear Thy mighty puissance
And tease death with Thy immortality’s humour.

Thou art I and I art Thou,
Wedded to each other in a siege of eternal love.

Inevitable Word is a pedestal for the newer forms of Poetry, Prose and literary Criticism. It is an attempt to bring into every manuscript the inevitable word and expression of the Spirit, as may be found in the Vedas, and more prominently, in the works of Sri Aurobindo.
