Life is Beautiful
When the skies thundered and sparked, And the heavens poured to their hearts content The water trickling and spraying on my tear-drained face Drenched in self-sympathy and remorse, Feeling the heaviness swelling in my heart , I thought, Life ! its just not fair on me! Life is not fair on me, had I thought? Thankless and Ungrateful with my mind , I fought, Hush NO! I have indeed been blessed by Amma, Thank you Amma for all that you gave me, Life is but my loyal friend, Never tires teaching in spite of my failures, Patient and waiting, for…

The Enchantress
Oh! Kali, you are hiding in the greenness of trees , in the fragrance of flowers merged in the brown earth holding your children close I see you in the pure white falling snow, in the new beginnings of the misty mornings.. you come around in the warm rays of the morning sun, floating in the soothing mid-day breeze, then rose into the expanse of blue sky reminding us to follow you to freedom I saw you in the setting sun.. Oh! Kali, filling all directions… with your magic of twilight.. I saw you hiding in me You enchantress.. You…

Mother make me Lose to you
Mother make me Lose to you, For That would be my Victory, What would be my Triumph If I have not surrendered to you? I still remember when I First met you, Though you have known me since long, How could I forget the twinkle In your eyes When u held me close and said, “Mol Padikenam” In the midst of darkness at night All that gives strength is the faith of your presence O Compassionate mother, Be with us For we do not know what is right, Fallen into deep crevices of despair We cannot get up try as…

A second chance
Life takes its due course with time People come and go, an inevitable change Yet whenever i turn back or look ahead, At times I fail to see you Through all the struggles I’ve gone through, You were always there and still are, right beside me Guiding me to the right direction When i lost faith in myself and any hope for the future I chanted your name, a reason worth living There have been several times when I escaped everything around me And felt your warmth reassuring me The world have always labelled me, pushed me Yet you have…

My Journey is going on and on
Days are falling like leaves of tree, My journey is still going on and on. Know nothing from where did I start! Know nothing where am I going! O Mother! My legs are weak to walk near Thee, Hands are tied can’t hold Thy feet, Eyes are swollen that hides Thou vision, My journey is going on and on… Renunciate is the one who renounces Thee; Says a yogi, which is so true. Struggles the mind for worldly toys, Searching happiness which it never knew. Shadowing the world and putting into sleep, Stood the ego in the path of gleam.…

little tear drop
Slowly and unwillingly it fell, the li’l tear drop. and, followed many in a stream, They all gathered at Her feet. and, each held a piece, of my ruptured heart. They knew no boundless joy, Nor the hymns in Her praise. Only ,the solitude of the heart, and the farway cry. saying silently, as they fell, How much my heart longed though never said. Unfolding the silent longing, unspoken fears and desires, they came to tell Her, the love of the heart. Shall She not listen, to the ruddy drops of my sad heart? -arya

Dreamy Existence
The inseparable twins of good and evil Carved on the canvas of existence, Are mere flashes in the mirror of mind That let you know the false existence. You dream and you don’t know you are in dream, As the dreamer can never know he is in dream, The Great Master lets you know you are in dream And that awakens you from dreamy existence. The inseparable twins of beauty and ugliness Carved on the canvas of existence, Are mere flashes in the mirror of mind That let you know the false existence. Ma, you append tenderly the waters of…

Amma, please come to me, Do not leave me, Amma, You are My Lord! — Anupama Dilip (7 Yrs.)

Super Mother
God created this magnificent world and then thought by, Why not add the beauty, and so hung the stars on the sky, He went on, with the smiling mountains, dancing trees, the land and sea The lovely animals, chirping birds, blooming flowers, then you and me. He felt that this world should remain good and peaceful forever, And so came down as a blessing in disguise, in the form of Mother. He knew a Mother would hold a special place, And bring his reflection on everyone’s face, A mother will walk an extra mile, Just to see her children wear…
