Thanks everyone for being here and welcome to the new members. Mazie and

Robert, you are doing a number on us. Thanks for sharing all the magic! In

Hindi, there is word called "Rasa". I don't know what the right translation

is. I think it means taste or sweet taste, or essence of sweet taste. When

we say that a song or a poem has Rasa, it means that the poetry has captured

the essence of some sweetness. That is what your poetry does. There is also

a sweetmeat India called "Rasagulla". It is a very sweet delicacy made up

puffed up cheese and sugar rose water. Has anyone had that? Was one of my

favorite dishes while growing up.

Welcome back Wim! I had been feeling a little guilty after all you went

through. But it's all water under the Bridge now (that's an American saying

for those interested).

Thanks Gabriele for sharing some beautiful stories of Bhagavan. They always

choke me up.

Thanks Gloria for the poetry sharings.

Thanks Zenbob for your charisma, for the natural farming tips, sharing about

your sheeps, and for promoting enthusiasm about human rights and

intellectual vigor. Hope your novel is a best seller.

Thanks TexasBob for your gentle presence.

Thanks Dan, Stan, Jan, Jody, Cody, Dody, Heidi, David, James, Thames, Hames,

John, Juan, Huan, Guan, Janpa, Anglique, Al, and All, and everyone.

Love to all

Harsha

....May these words that sing through us be heard in the light of what

inspires us back to the Silence where true creativity, wisdom and

Knowledge beyond anything that could ever be written here is born for

and from that moment.

May we be a living, breathing prayer that is open to growing more

expansive and inclusive as the Awareness of our True Nature awakens

within us. May this invoke our True Nature in our every expression.

May we know this prayer to be That which is in Communion with itSelf,

singing Its life here, rather than something unrealized and aspired

towards.

Rasa is a Sanskrit word meaning sap or essence of a thing and its

taste.

Rasa is That which is the always already Suchness, prior to all

conceptions and conditions, tasting Itself as the Formless playing

into every Form as Only Love. Rasa is That tasting Itself!

The delight experienced in the taste of essential beauty, Rasa, is

that essential beauty's Recognition of Itself. Union is where that

delight is experienced. May All know that Union, in Loving

Remembrance of What Is. Indeed, we have never been other than That!
