Poem Love and Hate
I do not hate the world,
Not because I do not know
How to hate,
But because God does not want me
To hate.
I love the world,
Not because I know how to love,
But because God,
Out of His boundless Bounty,
Loves the world
In me, through me and for me.
Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 66 by Sri Chinmoy.
