God’s Veilless Face

Here came the thought that passes beyond Thought,
Here the still Voice which our listening cannot hear,
The Knowledge by which the knower is the known,
The Love in which beloved and lover are one.

All stood in an original plenitude,
Hushed and fulfilled before they could create
The glorious dream of their universal acts;
Here was engendered the spiritual birth,
Here closed the finite’s crawl to the Infinite.

A thousand roads leaped into Eternity
Or singing ran to meet God’s veilless face.

[Savitri Book Two Canto 15]
