Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Om Kali, "O mind, my ancient friend, this projected Universe is only a faint reflection of reality. By attempting to grasp reflected images, we cheat ourselves of true experience. Turn instead to the original, and discover the limitless treasure of delight. This realm of reflection we encounter consists of earth, wind, fire, water, arranging and rearranging with increasing complexity. The principle of subtle energy evolves naturaly into tangibility, blossuming as living worlds beyond number. A single son reflects in countless water bowls. As these earthenware worlds are broken, one by one, the sunlight of primal awareness remains the same. Floating in the Cosmic Mother's Lucent womb, we are all contemplatives, but taking birth in the obscure realm of separation, we consume earth instead of nectar, convention instead of rapture, time instead of timelessness. The cord that bound me to my human mother was severed quickly and cleanly by the midwife. Can I cut as easily this illusion of bondage to the world? The passionate words of a selfish lover at first taste sweeter than honey, but they contain the poison of delusion. The singer of this song once drained the cup of selfish love and felt the anguish of its touch. But now Mother's poet tastes only Her authentic bliss and weeps spiritual tears: 'Ma Kali! Ma Kali! Ma Kali! Great Goddess! Union of relative and absolute! Laughing daughter of the eternal snow mountain! Do what you will with me!'" Jai Kali !!!
