"Go not to the temple to put flowers upon the feet of God
First fill your own house with the fragrance of love…
Go not to the temple to light lamps before
the altar of God,
First remove the darkness of sin from your heart.
Go not to the temple to bow down your
head in prayer,
First learn to bow humbly before your fellowmen.
Go not to the temple to pray on bended knees,
First bend down to lift someone who is down.
Go not to the temple to ask for forgiveness
for your sins
First forgive from your heart those who
have sinned against you!"
- R. Tagore
A blessed Lenten season to all.
