EVEN IN THE MOONLESS NIGHT

 

EVEN IN THE MOONLESS NIGHT

Shiva is always immersed in Dhyana

for the sake of the world

for all creatures

for all beings

for you for me.

He is always shining, resplendent in His knowing

of what next to do

for me, for you.

Sometimes it takes a while

before we see this is actually true

just like the full moon

takes a while longer than the rest

before it comes into full view.

Knowing this in their innermost faith

the bhaktas bhakti never wavers, never fades,

knowing even in the most moonless nights of all

the Lord pervades.

Aum Namah Shivaye.
