Rişhi: Ātreya (RV 5.4.10)
yas-tvā hŗdā kīriņā manyamāno- amartyam martyo johavīmi,
I meditate
on thee with a heart that does the work and Mortal, I call to the
Immortal.
It is not enough to think of the Divine, to
dwell upon the Idea of the Divine and develop the theme in the
Mind. The heart too must participate in the Quest. It must pour
out its feelings and emotions, must consecrate its movements to
the Divine. In the heart is the core of the being and there must
form and grow the central self-giving to the Divine. The
meditation in the mind must be backed up by the aspiration and its
incessant affirmation in the heart. Only so can the call of the
man, the mortal, reach the Immortal One.
