open up that eye

O Lord of the Universe,
Do open up that eye of mine
Which sees everything —
The present, past and future.
I have not heard the things that I must hear,
I always take deception-night.
I do not invoke the knowledge-sun.
And when the knowledge-sun approaches me,
I swiftly close my eyes.

* Sri Chinmoy on April 27, 1976
