Then a vast water with no means of crossing it. For a moment, I saw a bush full of opening buds. Then no roses, no thorns, nothing. For a moment I saw a busy cooking fire. Then no hearth, no smoke, no flame. I saw the great mother of kings, Kunti. Then, the next moment, sitting here, is the helpless old aunt of the potter's wife. - Lalla 14th Century North Indian mystic ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `From "Naked Song"Versions by Coleman BarksMaypop, 1992 Lead me from the unreal to the realLead me from darkness to lightLead me from death to immortality. - Invocation from the UpanishadsArchive for can be accessed at:/messagesSubscribe: -Un: Your use of is subject to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
