>Skanda’s Reverie! (Transfiguration)

>O Lord, surrounded by angels singing holy names,

>Your laughter shakes the universe

>And agitates the peaceful ocean of infinity.

>In a moment everything is golden

>And studded with rubies and diamonds

>And the universe assumes its real form.

>An ocean of nectar reflects Your Smiling Face,

>Anointing all creation with lotus blossoms,

>And malati and kunda flowers.

>Your breath of good fortune spreads to all.

>I am delighted and intoxicated by your aroma.

>I dance with wild abandon

>Under the midnight sky,

>Beckoning everyone

>To rise from their sleep,

>And come down to these golden shores

>Where you, I, everyone and everything

>Are all One.

>I dance along the seaside in ecstasy,

>Accompanied by the sounds of

>Flutes and drums and dancing revelers!

>Come celebrate!

>Drums thunder and shouts of joy arise everywhere!

>Come celebrate!

>I am showered with a monsoon of nectar,

>My heart overflows with love,

>I am overwhelmed by transcendental bliss!

>O my heart! Dance!

>I hear the cooing of peacocks and cuckoos,

>O my heart! Dance!

>O Lord, I feel Your Waves of Love splash over me!

>O my heart! Dance!

>Seeing All! (Ascension)

>Seeing all with divine sight:

>Indivisible delight,

>Starry embers burning bright,

>Illuminating the night.

>Angel-matches in a box,

>Swords aflame, creation rocks,

>Omniverse kismet unlocks.

>Strike the match and light the fire!

>Leaping heavenward aspire!

>Joyful rapture spiral higher!

>Bliss consuming your desire!

>Ablaze with a million suns,

>Sunlight falls on everyone,

>Rays through every angle run,

>Mystery's shadows are undone.

>Inner-gods arise from sleep,

>Ida stirs Pingala's Keep,

>Awakening Face of Deep,

>Firmament is smiling sweet.
