When She Arrives
An aroma spreads around me, divine fragrance of purity. My eyes see no one around. Suddenly senses jump out. Murmur stops into silence. Flower petals make a silky hiss. A soft food fall enters into hearts. Mystic smell of jasmine hangs in the air. From infinite; echoes, sound of a shell. Then divine drum sounds louder. Soft chime of her anklets tickle each soul. Now visible are a pair of pinky feet. A milky white robe flutters. Time stands still in the minds. A light smile lights my thoughts, pure white teeth adores her. In quick strides she reaches out,…

Alerting stars…
Ma, I was lulled to sleep by Thy mellifluous songs of melody, Alas! When I woke up I saw all the dazzling stars vanished away. Reminding me to wake up before the sun rises, do archana and be ready to receive your grace. Ma, I was lulled to sleep by Thy mellifluous songs of melody, Alas! When I woke up I saw all the dazzling stars vanished away. Reminding me slumbering is the worst ever enemy, get up and to do away with it without further delay. Ma, I was lulled to sleep by Thy mellifluous songs of melody, Alas!…

Meditative smile
Eyes retreat… Ears fall… Skin recedes… Tongue twisted… Nostrils shut… Nothing remains, Just the breathe of silence. A dark horse gallops. A spec of light emits far away. A white horse emerges, riding on by purity. Flood of brilliance. Smile of the holy mother. Meditative smile! by Sateeshan R

You blessed me
It’s your grace, it’s your wish… That I am able to remember you and feel you… Nothing disturbs me when i look at you, remember you… I find no worries in remembering you… I find it, grace and joy flowing in me… I call you, I pray to you… Are you listening me?? Yes.. You turn your face to me… you brought me so close.. i was able to feel the love.. your eyes..looking into mine.. your smile and the japa mala on your wrist.. powerful vibration and the fragrance… Can be felt even now… as you touched my forehead…

Wake up my mind!
Mind O mind… please long for that supreme oneness long for that supreme unity… Wake up my mind..wake up… Why this drowsiness.. O why this sleepiness… Don’t you long for the goal… Wake up my mind,wake up… Let O my beloved mother… let me have that sweet longing for you… let me have that sad, conscious, surrendered, sleepless longing for you… Save me my lord… save me… why have I gone to sleep again… save me O lord… save me… wake up my mind, wake up… by Anagha Sharan

Inside…
Eyes retreat leaving back a colourful world. Ears discard every sound and each syllable Skin leaves heaviness and recedes in wrinkles Tongue tastes sourness of life all through Nostrils succumb to foul breathe of globe Releasing colourful images n’ dreams sweet melody of life outside echoes in. Weightlessness lifts life little by little. Taste buds sleep on beds of tastelessness. Smell of god elevates to ecstasy. Senseless senses now settle inside, converged to unique experiences. Far away feather of a peacock flutters. A sweet cosmic melody from flute flows in. Lotuses bloom on path ways, on each foot falls of…

Amma arrives…
With Her tender lotus feet softer than lotus, AMMA arrives, let‘s offer our heart’s lotus. With Her tender lotus feet softer than lotus, AMMA arrives, let’s offer the fragrant flowers. With Her beaming smiles more effulgent than a million suns, AMMA arrives, let’s chant the mantra “om amriteswaryai namah” To dispel all sorrows and meet our AMMA in our innocent hearts. With Her lovely lotus-like eyes more coolant than a billion full-moons, AMMA arrives, let’s chant the mantra “om lokah samasthah sukhino bhavanthu” To dispel all agonies and share AMMA’s Pure Love in the entire universe. — Sridhar

Away from you
Poem written by 8 year old Sarada after the last San Ramon program, as she could not bear to part from Amma: Amma, I surrender to you every day and night, When the half moon rises and when the little birds chirp… Whenever I see something that is dear to me, I see that it is all in You… Amma, every time you go away from me, I cannot stand being away from You… Amma I surrender to You… When will You come to me? Every day I think of You and dream about You… I know that You are…

Supreme Divine Mother
O! Supreme Divine Mother, offering a song to Thee O! Supreme Divine Mother, stars studded in Thy crown, On Thy forehead we find, so beautiful the crescent moon. Ma, all Gods wearing clothes of yellowish hue praising Thee, Even so in tottering praises, Thy child offers a song to Thee . The fire God offered his effulgence to keep Thee, so warm The water God offered his streams to wash Thy feet, so charm Ma, all Gods wearing clothes of yellowish hue praising Thee, Even so in tottering praises, Thy child offers a song to Thee . …
