A selection of poems by Sri Chinmoy from the book.
Mother,
To be in your blessingful presence
Is to breathe in
A breath of living compassion.
Mother,
A single whisper from you
Has transformed thousands of non-believers
And disbelievers.
If any dying sufferer on earth
Needs someone to cry for him,
With him and in him,
Then he can unmistakably see
Mother Teresa's all-embracing arms
Faster than the fastest
Approaching him.
Mother Teresa tells us
That the right choice,
And the only choice,
Is the Christ's Compassion-Heart.
With a single glance,
Mother Teresa enlightens
Our crying eyes, searching minds
And aspiring hearts.
Mother Teresa is
The dreamer of happiness
In the heart of
Suffering, imprisoned humanity.
Mother Teresa tells the whole world
That a heart of love
Is infinitely stronger
Than we can ever imagine.
Mother Teresa always reminds us
That each difficulty
Is nothing short of God's Confidence
In us.
The moment I think of Mother Teresa,
I immediately step forward in faith,
God-faith.
Mother Teresa tells us
That if we want to succeed
In the battlefield of life,
Then we must never separate
Life from compassion.
Mother Teresa tells her patients
That God's Dream-Fulfilment
Is definitely attainable
In and through them.
Is there anybody on earth
Who will not see eye to eye with us
When we say that Mother Teresa
Is indeed God's special Way
To comfort the suffering and bleeding humanity?
In her we see the revelation
Of her Eternity's soul,
And the full manifestation
Of her Divinity's heart.
Mother Teresa tells us
That in order to be truly happy
We must unreservedly feel our oneness-heart
With the breath of the poor.
~Sri Chinmoy
