Thought
Glistening snow-capped crests,
Floating on a clear blue sky
Standing there from ancient day
What sacred teachings you convey?
Sharp crystal air refreshing face
Messages from Vedic race
Noble heights stay far beyond
The things of which we are fond
To meditate on peaks pure white
Yogis’ minds gain deep insight
Fixed like mountain seated still
Gaining strength, resolve and will
These, not just cold and solid blocks
Or pushed up heaving icy rocks
Great Lord of Yoga seated there
With indrawn eyes and flowing hair
The earth itself he made His seat
Meadows, foothills for His feet
His tresses long are valleys steep
So snow can thaw to rivers deep
Prayer
O Lord uplift my mind and hold me there in Thy highest realms. Make our thoughts noble and lofty. May my inner tranquillity beam thy glory to every being just like You as the grand and beautiful Himalayan mountains.
