Sri Aurobindo Ashram 

Jan. 21, 2011

And we by an incalculable grace

Are here among the blessed of the blest,

With time to undo the karmic knots of past,

Unfinished deeds and dramas yet to come

In future births in a world that shall outlast

Man's greed and savagery and shall contest

His very existence, the future of the race.

We being called by an inexorable sound

As if the OM of all the ages heard

In the dim and listening spaces of the soul

Brought forth the aspiration to travel home

Gravitating and seeking towards a goal

So vast and true, the ineluctable Word

Implanted here in this sacred ground.
