A Prayer to the Divine Mother
Dark clouds never failed In enhancing the Beauty of Infinite Sky. Nor even the black spots scattered Over the Full Moon on the Pournima day. Ma, but the clouds of my ignorance Ever fail miserably me In reaching Thy lovely Lotus Feet Throwing away from Thee. Would Thou heal the wound, named Ignorance? Afflicting the mind, the Turbulent & Violent. The habituated grains ingrained, named desires; None ever dared count these unnumbered! Thou art the Ocean of Knowledge Filled with endless waves of Unconditional Love Clasping the little one in Thy Hands Heal me from the disease of Ignorance. —…

On Guru Poornima
Amma, as an infant I loved only the shining Moon, Though the sky is vast, and it’s full of effulgent stars, Appended for Thy children to cherish divine dreams, As I grew young and adult, the world looked fatal, I could see the sky only covered with misty clouds, Lo! the habits turned my life into hellish dreams. So long I longed to get back to my days of infancy, To be cradled in Thy mellifluous songs of lullaby, Yet, the torments of desires shattered me away. Amma, Thou dost day and night for all Thy children, Thy self-less love…

A Beam…
There is a sprout in my heart, still very freshly still. Many weeds crept on my trunk, entwined entangled all over. There is dew drop on it, hanging precariously. Entire world cascades on it. I realized its presence one day. Then I fell in love with it. But it fell on earth for ever. I could see a dripped dried drop. My world was vaporized! I was floating as a hairy aril. Winds carried me away, to different lands in succession, widening my world beyond known. Far away I saw a sharp beam. A reflection of my soul . Universe…

I just want to…
I just want to lean on your shoulder for a while. I just want to embrace ecstasy of your love. I just want to be a thought that thinks about you ever. I just want to be image of your graceful vision. Just fill me with fullness of your freedom. Make me thy child of pure innocence. Feed me with first food of your grace. Initiate, me to the world of sounds n’ letters. Let me read your lips before you express. Let me shed my tears for your compassion, then, let me fall on your feet as a tear…

With only five dollars in my pocket
Memories of Amma’s first USA Yatra 1987 – part 7 Often it was the case where there was only $5 in my pocket, but somehow Amma always made sure that I was getting by. Old friends from college would drive me far and wide, or someone from a video show would offer a Greyhound bus ticket for me to get to the next place. Hundreds and then thousands of miles passed by in those six weeks; it was me, my backpack, and an intense longing to bring Amma to Her children. Finally March 20th arrived and I had made it…
