The might that is available at the cost of humanity, the acts as an
annihilator of humanity, is not approved by me, O my Lord, is never given
preference by me, I have no liking for it.
I don’t like that might which doesn’t melt on seeing the distress of
the distressed, which is never affected by the afflictions of the afflicted,
doesn’t become we with tears of weeping ones, and s never touched by the
forlorn’s lamentations; O my Master, that strength is not approved by me.
The energy that is acquired by making the life inanimate is not
approved by me, O my Lord, is never given preference by me.
What purpose will be served by such strength which will decorate
only myself and will never be beneficial to others? What shall I gain by
getting mastery over such supernatural, extraordinary Yogic powers? In the
midst of misery and poverty, calamity and depression, despite possessing
power for their eradication, what shall I gain by sitting silently, O my
Master, what shall I gain by having eyes which see not?
Nay, I shall endeavor for making Your creation more and more
heavenly and like Your gardener fill the world with verdurous grass.
Protecting humanity, shall give life to them that live without any activity,
spirit or emotion. Give me strength only if you accept this; otherwise let
me remain powerless; for the strength available at the cost of humanity,
that acts as an annihilator of humanity, is not approved by me, O my
Almighty, is never given preference by me. I have no liking for it. |
