The chord of love/Shri Rama's message to Sita when they were parted

[Guest guest]

Dear Durga:

Love this quote. It is one of the tracks on the Ram Dass/Amazing Grace "Chord of Love" CD.

A reading by Dass. I have heard it many times as this is one of my

favorite CDs, although I do tend to favor music over the

readings...Sorry, Ramji :-) . I also especially like the Chord of

Love message of Oneness. Thank you.

Love,

Joyce

The chord of love/Shri Rama's message to Sita when they were parted

"Ever since I have been separated from you, Sita, everything to me has

become its very reverse. The fresh and tender leaves on the trees

look like tongues of fire; nights appear as dreadful as the night of

final dissolution and the moon scorches like the sun. Beds of

lotuses are like so many spears planted on the ground, while rain

clouds pour boiling oil, as it were. Those that were friendly before

have now become tormenting; the cool; soft and fragrant breezes are

now like the breath of a serpent. One's agony is assuaged to some

extent even by speaking of it; but to whom shall I speak about it?

For there is no one who will understand. The reality about the chord

of love that binds you and me, dear, is known to my soul alone; and my

soul ever abides with you. Know this to be the essence of my

love."Sundarkand Tulsidas
