A beautiful devotional song which used to be sung by Sri Ramakrishna in his moments of divine ecstasy. The Master reminds us of the facts God resides deep within us, and there is no other place to find God but within our own heart.
Dwell, O mind, within yourself;
Enter no other’s home.
If you but seek there, you will find
All you are searching for.
God, the true Philosopher’s Stone,
Who answers every prayer,
Lies hidden deep within your heart,
The richest gem of all.
How many pearls and precious stones
Are scattered all about
The outer court that lies before
The chamber of your heart!
-Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
