27 (be not ashamed)

BE NOT ashamed, my brothers, to stand before the proud and the

powerful with your white robe of simpleness.

Let your crown be of humility, your freedom the freedom of the soul.

Build God's throne daily upon the ample bareness of your poverty, and know that what is huge is not great and pride is not everlasting.

শীতের দুয়ারে বসন্ত যবে
         আসে যায় দ্বিধাভরে
আমের মুকুল ছুটে চলে আসে--
         ঝরে তার পথ-'পরে।

ফাগুন এল দ্বারে,
      কেহ যে ঘরে নাই--
পরান ডাকে কারে
      ভাবিয়া নাহি পাই।

FAR AS I GAZE at the depth of Thy immensity
I find no trace there of sorrow or death or separation.
Death assumes its aspect of terror
and sorrow its pain
only when, away from Thee,
I turn my face towards my own dark self.
Thou All Perfect,
everything abides at Thy feet
for all time.
The fear of loss only clings to me
with its ceaseless grief,
but the shame of my penury
and my life's burden
vanish in a moment
when I feel Thy presence
in the centre of my being.
