Prayer-Demand for removing the Cork of Ignorance from Whispers from Eternity, by Paramhansa Yogananda

23
Prayer-Demand for removing the Cork of Ignorance.

No more shall my consciousness remain bottled in this phial of flesh, corked with ignorance. No more will I remain moving through the sea of cosmic consciousness, night and day, years, incarnations—so close, yet without contacting the sea. Through the bursting vibration of cosmic sound, and the surging of Thy holy name, I have removed the cork of ignorance, which so long separated Thee from me, though living so near. Now my consciousness within the body will meet the all-pervading consciousness without. No longer will I thoughtlessly walk in Thee, knowing and feeling Thee not. Thine image within shall meet Thine image which is everywhere. By releasing the "I-ness" in me, I know that I am Thou, and that it is Thou who art the little egos of all.
