Beautiful good friend. A testament to the death of ego, and immersion in the

absolute. May I keep this and share with friends?

True Love

 

 

"Harsha (Dr. Harsh K. Luthar)" <hluthar

 

I wrote this some years ago. Have posted it before..............Harsha

 

TRUE LOVE, DIVINE LOVE

 

I fell in love

I fell in a well

I fell in a well of love

I splashed all about

trying to get out

out of the well of love;

terror seized me

came this thought

all is lost.

Tried to swim out

heard myself shout

Help! A drowning man

gasped for breath

close seemed death

I wildly thrashed around

in the well of love

and in time got out

safe and sound.

 

Cold and shaken

lost in thought

dripping from head to toe;

I was not sure

if the battle fought

had been with a friend or foe.

Still, my shivering body

sought no shelter and

with no place to go

stood quietly into the night

until the sunrise again

brought back life's glow.

It was then that

I missed love;

and many times

circled the well of love.

Looked inside but

could not tell

how deep it was.

 

I felt its call

the well of love

and could not look away

but how long can one stand

on the bridge of faith

and bear such human pain

so I could not help it

and jumped in

the well of love again.

Now, water water everywhere

all thought has ceased to be

and everywhere I stare

My love's face is what I see

Yes, water water everywhere

not a single sound is made

I did drown in the well of love

and only love remained.

Ha! Life is full.

Nityananda is my Guru, my Bhakti (devotion). Gurubhava! (union with the

Guru). I love only him. In him Marcus is lost and rests in everything and

nothing. Our posts do seem to be crossing karmic paths!

Love

Marcus

Re: True Love

 

 

Thanks Marcus for your kind words and presence here. You are perceptive.

Indeed, I wrote the simple poem (True Love, Divine Love) to describe as closely

as I could the spiritual struggle culminating in the experience of Nirvikalpa

Samadhi. And yes, do feel free to share this poem with friends. By the way Swami

Nityananda (Guru of Baba Muktananda) was given to me as an example of a Realized

Sage in the Shakti tradition by my teacher many years ago. As is common in many

yogic traditions, Swami Nityananda stopped eating a few months before

Mahasamadhi. This is how my teacher's teacher passed away as well.

 

Wishing you well
