Leonard Cohen
“I can麓t leave my house
or answer the phone.
I麓m going down again
but feeling no pain.

And that麓s the great change
and mercy to boot ---
the enemy麓s dead
and I don麓t have to shoot.

But as for the fall:
it was writ long ago
and I can麓t stop it now ---
I麓m rain and I麓m snow.

And I settle at last
on the ground of my soul
in shapes of the past
and shapes that unfold.

I sit in my chair
and I look at the street --
the enemy麓s gone
and his absence is sweet!

I move with the leaves
I shine with the chrome
I麓m almost alive
I麓m almost at home.

But please do not follow
I麓ve nothing to teach:
except that the goal
falls short of the reach.”
Leonard Cohen

Sri Aurobindo
“The outward and the immediate are our field,
The dead past is our background and support;
Mind keeps the soul prisoner, we are slaves to our acts;
We cannot free our gaze to reach wisdom鈥檚 sun.
