Who…Who Are You?
Saturday, January 5th, 2013
Who…Who Are You? asks a golden heart posing to the Divine Resplendence called Sri Sathya Sai, Who is the Divine Enchantress of many a soul, the Script Writer of the Cosmic Dream…Posing a barrage of questions from her golden heart, the author wonders at His supremely exalted status, beseeching Him for a Divine Audience, for That Precious Priceless Presence… A poem Straight From The Heart of Sri Jullie Chaudhuri…
Sathya Sai Baba, Sathya Sai Baba, Sathya Sai Baba…
My sweetly cherished Lord You are,
Oh! Beloved Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba…
A gust of wind blew my way,
As I chanted this sacrosanct name aloud that day…
It seemed as though,
The gentle breeze brought fragrant memories,
Akin to cherished gifts from the Magi,
Precious memories that glowingly reminded me,
Though I missed His Presence,
In essence,
My Beloved One was forever close by,
Nevertheless, it so enhanced my longing for a glimpse of -
Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai…
Oh! Mother Sai,
My heart did thus cry,
Oh! Divine Enchantress of my soul,
What can I say about You Whom the scriptures extol,
Yet, often I wonder and my mind wanders hitherto,
Just Who…Who are You…?
Oh! Father Supreme,
Scriptwriter of this Cosmic Dream,
It is Your Brilliance that sets the Universe agleam,
Yet, often I wonder and my mind wanders hitherto,
My feelings for You nothing can subdue,
Just Who…Who are You…?
Oh! Most Loving Friend,
My darling Guide and Guru,
Bidding all else adieu,
All I want is to be immersed in thoughts of You…
Yet, often I wonder and my mind wanders hitherto,
Every atom of Creation You do imbue,
Just Who…Who are You…?
Oh! Precious Lord,
I surrender to You…do I,
You,
Who chose this radiantly endearing Form of Sathya Sai,
Heralding a synchronized rhythm in this Cosmic Milieu,
However, there is so much more to You,
You simply cannot be defined,
Nor in any manner confined,
Though in every heart You are enshrined,
You are not just Sathya Sai,
Your reality is beyond the ken of the finite mind,
Isn’t this true…?
My mind swirls and twirls when I think of You,
Overcome is my soul,
With the ecstatic sentiments that ceaselessly ensue…
I wonder,
At my immense fortune,
That granted me darshans of You,
You, Who are ‘that’ Fundamental Substance,
Who chose to advent upon Earth as Sathya Sai,
That ‘I’ which emerges from the feeling – ‘I am I’,
Inscrutably deep, an enigma unfathomable, indescribably imperceptible,
Love personified beyond the frontiers of comprehension…
Everlasting Grace…Timeless Compassion…
That Primordial Spirit,
That Source of all Bliss,
The Unchangeable Absolute,
That Everlasting Truth,
That Eternal Harmony,
That kindles a Celestial Symphony,
That Pearly Shimmer forever absorbed in Self Delight,
That singularly Exceptional Light,
That existed even when nothing did,
That forms the Basis of the Cosmic Grid,
That caused Creation to come into being,
A Mystifying Mystery ever so dazzling,
Everlastingly inexplicable,
And utterly baffling…
Part of me evinces chagrin,
Oh! Do I even know how truly blessed I have been?
Yet, I wonder to express my gratitude,
Where do I begin…
Oh! Beloved Lord,
Oh! Enlivening One,
Thy luminosity outshines a zillion Suns,
I salute and wholeheartedly surrender to Thee,
To Whom,
The entire existence owes its existence,
Salutations along with an earnest pledge and penitent plea,
To Thee…
While awaiting from Thee,
An acquiescence for that Divine Audience,
For Thy Precious Presence,
Glimpses of that Supreme Effulgence,
Oh! Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai,
You Are -
That Eternal Principle…That Indivisible Essence…
