[Poetry Chaikhana] Paramahansa Yogananda - What bliss at the sight of Thy light!

Here's your Daily Poem from the Poetry Chaikhana --

 

What bliss at the sight of Thy light!

By Paramahansa Yogananda
(1893 - 1952)

 

As I muse on Thee a thrilling fountain spray lightninglike spreads from my heart to all cells of my body, saturating them with divine devotion. I seek to enter the inmost heaven of Thy presence.

The soul's secret door suddenly opens; and, oh, what bliss I feel at the sight of Thy light!

 

-- from Whispers from Eternity, by Paramahansa Yogananda

Thought for the Day:

Spiritual practice is a sling shot.
You tug and strain,
but when you have enough tension
-- just let go and soar!

Hi Omss -

A prayer poem today by the great early 20th century spiritual leader, Paramahansa Yogananda.

The soul's secret door suddenly opens; and, oh, what bliss I feel at the sight of Thy light!

Have a beautiful weekend!

Ivan


I've been dealing with strong bouts of chronic fatigue this past week. It's been making work difficult, but I've had some wonderfully deep meditations. Maybe I should just go pro with the whole meditation thing... ;-)

Donations to the Poetry Chaikhana

Thank you to everyone who has made a donation in recent months! Your support has helped me to continue with the Poetry Chaikhana, despite ups-and-downs with my day job and health. Deeply appreciated!

New donations this past week:

- Neelam (ON)

A few reasons to consider making a donation of your own...

  • People's focus naturally shifts and evolves over time. Individuals who donated regularly a few years ago sometimes move on. For that reason, the Poetry Chaikhana needs new supporters.
  • Save the sacred poets! Ivan spends a certain amount of time each month searching for translations of poets and saints throughout history. Your donation helps him to continue this work.
  • The Poetry Chaikhana is entirely free. You don't have to make a donation to receive the poem emails or explore the web site. Your contribution is always welcome, but you can enjoy the poetry anyway.
  • The daily poem can bring depth to your prayer or meditation practice.
  • Donating feels good! :-)
