YOU RAINED
When Grace happened,
you rained.
this desert heart
Renounced its pain.
You rained
and finally,
in every drop
i saw the same.
When Grace happened
i was swept
in a sea
forever changed.
{Anugraha- Grace, is a key word in the understandings of the Kashmir Shaivite Rishis. The Kashmir Shaiv Darsana : Kashmir Shaivism teaches that among innumerable powers, the principal Shakti of Shiva are Sristi( creation) Sthiti(maintenance) Samhara(dissolution) Vilaya(veiling of the Divine nature of all things) and finally Anugraha( grace, by which we get reconnected to our timeless Divinity) This painting by jammu based artist K.k. Gandhi amply evokes the beauty of Anugraha.
