Guest guest Posted December 24, 2002 Report Share Posted December 24, 2002 The Dance of Shiva... The flood of nineteen-twenty-four Was horrible in Rishikesh It carried away many Mahatmas and Sadhus This is the dance of Siva. The impetuous Chandrabhaga Turned its course in 1943 People crossed it with difficulty With the help of elephant This is the dance of Siva. In the morning of eleventh January 1945 There was fall of snow On the surrounding Himalayas The chill was terrible This is the dance of Siva. Lord Visvanath dwells now In a place where there was forest. He pleases the whole world. He bestows health and long life. This is the dance of Siva. Forests become Ashrams, Islands become an ocean, Ocean becomes an island, Cities become deserts, This is the dance of Siva. Siva gazes His Sakti Then there is the atomic dance There is the dance of Prakriti Lord Siva merely witnesses This is the dance of Siva. Then Prana vibrates, mind moves, Senses function, Buddhi operates, Heart pumps, lungs breathe, Stomach digests, intestines excrete, This is the dance of Siva. This is a world of change A changing thing is perishable Know the Imperishable Which is changeless And become Immortal. ______________________________ The centipede was happy quite until a bird said, in fun, "Which foot goes after which?"
