Determination
Determination. My soul is determined to manifest God's supreme victory here on Earth now.
Determination. My heart is determined to love God, the Creator unconditionally from this moment on until I breathe my last.
Determination. My mind is determined to send my doubts, disbelieve and suspicion into eternal exile.
Determination. My vital is determined to transform my undivine restless vital into supreme peaceful and fruitful poise.
Determination. My body is determined to liberate itself from its bondage-slavery.
Determination. My life is determined to serve God the Creation at every moment in His own way and I am determined to smash the pride of ignorance-night once and for all.
Determination. Enthusiasm feeds my determination. This enthusiasm-flood comes from the inner worlds.
Compassion feeds my determination. This compassion-rain descends from the higher worlds.
When my entire being being surcharged with adamantine determination Mother Earth blessingfully says to me: "My son, you have my divine joy and you have my supreme pride."
Again, when my entire being is surcharged with adamantine determination, Father Heaven blessingfully says to me: "My son, claim me as your own, very own. I am all yours."
Determination. Determination.
- Sri Chinmoy
