I seem to live in a catastrophic world Yet living also in the calm and peace of mind. Soon I shall return to Auroville And face the struggle of opposing sides, Continue as best I can the work She gave, The building of the Gardens which She said Are as important as the Matrimandir. Yet on every side my efforts are repulsed Who profess they have the vision of the vast. It is so lovely in the presence here One could easily agree to stay But through the criticisms of the elite I must persist and give my love to all, Accept the hostility and offer to Her All the yearning soul alive in me. For Her I live, for me She is the goal.
