Soliloquies in Yoga — 1

Voices: But what is thy endurance to the Gods? Away as they are from the crucible of our lives, they feel no pity, have no thought for our woes, bent only on satiating the hunger of their wills. obeying some impulse which perhaps even they don’t comprehend.

But ours is not to despair, for is not love alive still? Love that throbs in the breasts of man & beast, that mover of worlds, that conductor of the opera of the stars, that fire which dances in the light of the Suns through the ages numberless, yes that love can bind them. Bind the will of them who have no mortal throb to the hearts of ours who have no immutable will.

Ah, joy boundless, what prodigous heavens shall issue from this marriage, what odes to felicity conceived, what music of delight derived, what bliss of becomings cherished!

Aspirant: Yes O Gopala, I shall love and endure.
