LIKE A CHILD

 

LIKE A CHILD

Worry not,

about this tumultuous stream called life

with all its sadness, all the strife

He will take you ashore like a child

He, who stands there always

waiting

to extend a helping hand

to you, who love God and life and all creatures alike.

Jai Ho!

When and how , will i know, you ask?

"Sam karoti, iti samkara"

says the Darsana of Kashmir,

He, who introduces you

to the sameness

of your own Self Divine

He , it is that is Siva

The Guru, Maheswaraye.

Namah Shivaye, Aum Namah Shivaye!

~ From the book' Shiva poetry Vol2 ' by Shail Gulhati

PARVATI ASKS NANDIJI ABOUT MAHADEV

PARVATI ASKS NANDIJI ABOUT MAHADEV

One day, before She was married to Shiva, Parvati asked Nandi to tell her about His habits.

“Why do you ask?”

“Oh, because I have so many notions of Him; so much I have heard, so much I have been told, and so much I feel intuitively. I want to know what is what with Him. So that I may serve Him well, for the rest of my life.”

~ SHIVA, The Ultimate Time Traveller.

WHEN I WAS SATI AND YOU WERE RUDRA…

 

WHEN I WAS SATI AND YOU WERE RUDRA…

He had virtually all the self-containment that anybody could ask for. And yet, He never got to the mystery of the woman. She appeared daily, without fail, at the end of each meditation.

One day She came in His meditation and even as He stared at Her, She returned the stare with an enchanting smile. He had been meditating ceaselessly for three nights and the result was that even in His thoughts, He was staggering.

“Who are you?” He finally asked.

“I am you, Rudra,” She said. “But to make things simpler, I am Sati.”

THE NECTAR SWEET

 

THE NECTAR SWEET

All the struggle

the tussle

the hussle

the bussle

all the fights

from all the lands

and all the people

Kings and warriors

and even sages,

was just to get to Him.

You should have pulled on the ropes of love,

instead of the ' Tug O war' you did!

All the craze to get to immortality

seemed a dream of nectar sweet,

but for the lover, a life without the loved

is without a doubt, a poison curse within.

Get to Him, for love, not gain

and the nectar sweet shall flow free,

All the love you need!

earth to sky, Namah Shivaye,

Aum Namah Shivaye.

~From ' Shiva poetry'

SHIVA DARSHAN

 

SHIVA DARSHAN

Shiva the auspicious, Shiva the Warlord, Shiva the mountain God, Shiva the dweller of the cremation grounds, Shiva the creator of the universe, Shiva the destroyer, Shiva the ascetic, Shiva the loyal husband, Shiva the meditator, Shiva the recluse, Shiva the Supreme spiritual master! Which One was He?”

“Yes, which one was He indeed, Gurudeva?” asked Shaunaka.

“The transformed seers spoke of Shiva in endearing terms, adding yet another epithet to His mentions. ‘Verily, He is all. He is Shiva Nataraja, Lord of the cosmic dance! ’ ” replied Suta.

~ SHIVA, The Ultimate Time Traveller.

“Creation,” Shiva said softly, “can be expression rather than solution.”

 

What if creation did not arise from need at all? What if existence is not the answer to a problem, but the expression of a freedom so complete that it overflows?”

The seeker stared. “What do you mean?”

Shiva gestured toward the sky. “Think of a great artist. A painting is not created because the artist lacks paint.”

Parvati smiled. “A song is not written because the musician lacks music.”

“Creation,” Shiva said softly, “can be expression rather than solution.”

THE KEEPER

 

THE KEEPER

Through the memory of a thousand yugas

He dances in a vision,

In His present, the Divine mission,

He is the meeting point,of past and future,

He is Shiva, Mahadev,

One who loves with a heart of gold,

remembers every story ever told

The keeper of moments that make a whole.

~ From the book' Shiva poetry Vol2 '
