Advent is a season for learning how to desire in a way that leads to deeper life. The Indian writer Rabindranath Tagore gave a beautiful expression to this in Gitanjali :
"In one salutation to thee, my God, let all my senses spread out and touch his world at thy feet . . . . "
"Let all my songs gather together their diverse strains into a single current and flow to a sea of silence in one salutation of thee."
"Like a flock of homesick cranes flying night and day back to their mountain nests, let all my life takes its voyage to its eternal home in one salutation to thee."♥
