Thought
In simple house thatched
By ponds where lilies rest
Where paddy fields lie
Witness pilgrims passing by
Divine mind’s nativity
Seeing need for harmony
Luminous engulfing wave
For our foolishness to save
Sight of cranes in sky contrast
Divine mood came on him fast
Amidst night of Shiva’s dance
He went into ecstatic trance
In sanctum Mother finding him
And there he finding Her
Embracing child to live in him
And in her presence ever swim
In holy place with modest band
He crafted youthful minds
Arise be pure and free he spoke
In decades, their shackles broke
Universal truth founding built
Embodiment of every way
Light of love of modern sage
As timely hope for modern age
Prayer
O saving light and infinite love let my mind dwell on thy smiling face. Seeing eyes yet deep indrawn draws me to thy light and flame. Entrancing one pushing from within and drawing me ever close to thee. May I be ever open to thy constant happy invitation.
