~One of my favorite poems~

[Guest guest]

Namaste Beloved Family!

i am having a very difficult time coming up with "My very favorite

Poem", since Poetry is part of the very essence of my being, but i

came across this one today on the web. It is by one of my very

favorite all time Divine Poets, Ram Prasad. Please enjoy it!

 

"Whom could I fear in the universe

where my Mother is matriarch?

I live with perfect ease upon her estate,

indivisible awareness and bliss.

I am her direct tenant,

free from formality and hierarchy.

 

There is no payment of rent for this sanctuary,

this garden of nonduality,

its value beyond assessment by the mind.

Nor can my sacred abode be sold at auction,

for there are no owners and nothing to own.

The manager of Mother's holdings, Lord Shiva,

transcends every limited conception and transaction.

There is no disharmony or injustice here,

for there is no division, no separation.

Mother does not impose the heavy tax

of religious obligation.

My only responsibility of stewardship

is constant inward remembrance,

eternally breathing Kali, Kali, Kali." OM.

 

Jai Maa! Jai Swamiji! Jai Thakur!
