During a meeting with his students, Sri Chinmoy explains the loftiest goal of God-realisation, the purpose of having a spiritual Master and how different spiritual texts mention God-realisation.

Revelation

No more my heart shall sob or grieve.
My days and nights dissolve in God’s own Light.
Above the toil of life, my soul
Is a Bird of Fire winging the Infinite.

I have known the One and His secret Play,
And passed beyond the sea of Ignorance-Dream.
In tune with Him, I sport and sing;
I own the golden Eye of the Supreme.

Drunk deep of Immortality,
I am the root and boughs of a teeming vast.
My Form I have known and realised.
The Supreme and I are one; all we outlast.

-Sri Chinmoy, My Flute, Agni Press, 1972
