I am not my face that I see in the mirror I am not my name that I always sign under I am not my mood that keeps changing its colour I am not my emotion that changes like weather I am not my pain or sorrow or pleasure I am not even the things that I often desire I am not my hopes, dreams and ambitions either I am.......I am.....hmmm...hey....now I remember!

bhakti_lata Posted November 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 Here's another perpective that i originally wrote in Hindi. I present the same with translation. "main kaun hooN?" maiN = I kaun = who hooN = am [who am I?] <font color="blue"> boond aik saagar kii jo maya ke greeshm se hawaa ho gayii hai a drop of an ocean that by the heat of Maya has been vaporized kiran aik sooraj kii jo agyaantaa ke baadaloN meiN chhip gayii hai a ray of a blazing sun which has been covered over by the cloud of ignorance ansh aik sampoorN kaa jis se sambandh apnaa bhool gayii hai. part of a whole the connection with whom is forgotten (by the part) aik aisee dhoban jo Hari naam ke jal se apnaa mailaa aaNchal mal mal kar dho rahii hai a washerwoman who using the pure water of Hari Naam is vigorously washing her soiled saarii bhakti~lata </font color> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhakti_lata Posted November 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2003 Thank you anadi prabhu. You say i have talent...but I wrote the poem to express my devotion...I hope my poem is able to convey my devotion rather than my talent. Thanks for your comments. Prabhu, am i correct in assuming that your ID name is anaadi as in "anaadir-aadir govinda sarva kaaraNa kaaraNa ". Anaadi meaning One who is unborn has no beginning ie "The Supreme Lord". The reason I am clarifying this is that someone in reply to one of your posts, i think, thought your id name was 'anadi' a word in hindi which means 'inexperienced'. Thank you also to guest prabhu for appreciating my poem. Govinda! bhakti~lata Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
