Peace-Blossom-Fragrance

Excerpts from the 700 poems in Peace-Blossom-Fragrance, all poems by Sri Chinmoy.
God the transcendental man
Is the fragrance of peace.
My silence-blossom-meditation
Is nothing short of
My peace-freedom-multiplication.
Peace
Is the illumining and fulfilling
Expansion
Of my soul-horizon.
When I meditate on peace,
My soul proudly smiles.
Peace
Is my inner life's only choice.
Peace
Is world-transformation-belief.
Peace takes birth
Only in oneness-love's abundance.
God wants me to make
A little garden inside my heart
For Him to come and sing
Every day
His morning Peace-Songs.
Do not stop your heart from crying
If you want peace
To blossom perfectly
In your entire being.
Peace
Is indeed the miracle-cure
For the doubt-infested humanity.
God never made
A peace-famine-world.
It is unmistakably
A man-made-disaster.
When the faith of the mind
Runs low,
The peace of the heart
Is compelled to run slowly.
When you do not have peace of mind,
You walk and walk along
The road of nothingness
That leads nowhere.
My life's peace-achievement
Is not only within the bounds
Of possibility
But also in the freedom
Of inevitability.
Peace
Has the rarest capacity
To illumine the world
With God's own Smile.
Cling not
To your life's past facts.
Cling only to your heart's
Fast-blossoming dreams.
Peace will be all yours.
Where forgiveness
Is in very short supply,
Peace will not offer
Its visible appearance.
O my mind,
I beg of you,
Do not deplete
Your store of enthusiasm,
For I still need
Peace from within,
Peace from without.
O my mind,
How can you have an iota of peace
When you allow yourself
To be flooded,
With worldly questions,
Interrogations and suspicions?
As long as we allow our minds
To be the world's
Separativity-specialists
We will never have
Even an iota of peace.
While on earth,
A man of peace
Experiences, reveals
And manifests
The joy of paradise.
Compromise
Is nothing other than
A counterfeit peace.
If we disregard
The essential value of peace,
Then we are courting
Our own destruction.
A heart-citizen cannot live,
Even for a fleeting second,
Without peace.
Spirituality's strongest
Foundation-heart
Is peace.
Spirituality
Not only knows what peace is
But it also eager to reveal peace
Everywhere.
A man of peace
Has the rare capacity
To destroy the iron walls
Of all the world-negativities.
