From the poem Friendship by Paramahansa Yogananda; Lesson #4

Is friendship the weaving of the red strings of two hearts?
Is it the blending of two minds into a spacious-one mind?
Is it the spouting of love founts together- -
To strengthen the rush of love on droughty  souls?
Is it the one rose grown ‘twixt twin mind-branchlets
Of one compassionate stem?
Is it the one thinking in two bodies?

Friendship is noble, fruitful, holy- -
When two separate souls march in difference
Yet in harmony, agreeing and disagreeing,
Growing, improving diversely,
With one common longing to find solace in true pleasure.
When ne’er the lover seeks
Self comfort at the cost of the one beloved,
Then in that garden of selflessness
Fragrant friendship perfectly flowers.

Ah, friendship! Flowering, heaven-born plant!
Nurtured art thou in the soil of measureless love,
In the seeking of soul progress together
By two who would smooth the way each for the other.
In thou art watered by attention of affection
And tender dews of inner and outer sweetness
Of the inmost, selfless hearts devotion.
Ah, friendship where thy soul-born flowers fall- -
There on that sacred shrine of fragrance- -
The friend of all friend’s craves to come and to remain!
