SHIVA
Brahma beholds with awe,
in his son, the father.
Saraswati listens in bewilderment,
the knowing of this master
learning whenceforth
his mouth, Siva Mukhi,
She sprang as mother of learning;
the primal daughter.
Rama, in full attendance of his tribes,
proclaimed him Isvara,
who softly answered.
‘It is you I adore, and Sita is my mother.’
Many, in straight forward simpleness,
pray for daily meal,
behold!
the Universal bread winner.
For more of multitudes,
His presence in a black stone
colossal.
Others, who know his transcendence,
to cause even time ,as the timeless deity!
Yet He,
beholder of the cosmic drum,
looks only to her,
His eternal throb, Forever…..
in his son, the father.

Footnote: To the shaivites,Lord Shiva along with Devi Parvati, is all. He is the founder of the tantras. It is difficult to understand his play unless seen from the metaphysical,or mystic eye…So too, He is the creator of the creator,and even as he appears as Brahma’s son, he is the father! Likewise, he may choose to address Sita as a mother,acknowledging the shakti of lakshmi in her,and Ram, being the incarnation of Vishnu,may be addressed in the rank of a brother.
