a verse from annamalai venba

[Guest guest]

Hare krishna,

namaskarams

 

Recently I had been to Thiruvannamali and purchased couple books at

Sri Ramana Maharishi ashram. I wish to share the following verse from

Annamalai Venba from the book " The collected works of Sri Ramana

Maharishi " .

 

" The waters rise up from the sea as clouds, then falls as rains and

run back to the sea in streams, nothing can keep them from returning

to there source Likewise the soul rising up from Thee cannot be kept

from returning to the source.

A bird which rises from the earth and soars in to the sky can find no

place of rest in midair but must return again to earth. So indeed must

all retrace their path, and when soul finds the way back to its

source, it will sink and be merged in Thee, Oh Arunachala, Thou ocean

of bliss.'

 

I felt blessed particularly because my earliar post " the rain drops "

had some thing close to this.
