Songs dedicated to the Divine Mother by Sri AnnadaThakur

[Guest guest]

Namaste all, esp Steve!

 

Here is another one for you.

 

Who knows your nature

 

Who can know your true nature, you are beyond all Nature.

You are independent, unique, hidden from all scripture and ritual.

Sometimes in your divine spirit, you hold truth at your breast.

Sometimes in your worldly aspect you seek prosperity and success.

Sometimes with your dark attributes, you delve into darkness,

not having won over the mind, lost to the wiles of delusion.

Who knows what the scriptures deduced;

they stopped after speaking a lot; they came to no conclusion.

Such is your play of love, O Mother,

such is your fairground of perceptions,

finding with no effort a raft of knowledge,

even fools are able to cross over.

 

Some say you are in this world, an imaginary mother figure,

Some say you are the universe, you hold the universe.

Being weak, without grace, how would we ever know?

The world is benumbed by your Maya; Oh consort of Shiva.

Shower us with your grace, seeing our effort,

Draw the worker to yourself.

Let selfless work open our eyes,

to the intense beauty of our Mother.
