Thou went to the cross
to appease our collective ego;
what more proof do we need
of Thy great love for us.
What appears as supreme sacrifice
was no sacrifice for Thee —
for in Thy greatest magnanimity
Thou tried to show a way.
It reflects not an
iota on Thee
that we, ignorant as we were
could not perceive but see
what it was all about.
It was again Thy immense munificence
to descend once more —
amidst the same dark bleakness,
to show us where we went astray.
Lord, it could be only Thee
who could show us the futility of empty pray!
Oh Mother of mine, let Thy flock
who now see the light
remain forever at Thy Lotus Feet
and wherefrom help to spread Thy Light
in quarters yet in dark !
