Through Lifetimes We Have Awaited Thee…
Sunday, November 15th, 2015
Aching hearts do cry, seeing the world not toeing the line, inviting disasters unlimited… seeing the man-made folly. If not now, when we will beseech Him, implore Him, seeking to correct each one of us, rescuing His creation. Mankind has to pray fervently with all out heart, most selflessly, seeking Him to set us free…. taking a cue from the pages of His Story of yore, we need to sing paeans galore, wooing Him intensely, as the world needs Him now more than anytime before. …a dedication at His Lotus Feet from all of us, through the lines of Sri Jullie Chaudhuri.
Help us, sweet Lord…
…to walk over the worldly waters…
…the stormy sea of material living…
Oh! Lord…
…correct us even before we falter…
We pray…
…may Thy Life…
Thy message be for us an exalted revelation…
Oh! Mother Sai…kindly do amplify…
…our adoration…
…endow us with Thy Pure Pristine Love…
…so that we may serve with verve…
…expressing harmony for all beings that do co-exist…
Empower these hands to constantly provide support and assist…
…may the shower of Thy Grace strengthen our faith…
Dousing any kind of doubts…
… enhance our devotion…
May we make Thy compassion our mission…
…eager to share another’s grief…
…wipe a stranger’s tears…
…while enhancing their belief…
…only then will we do justice to Thee…
Bestow that yearning, dearest Lord…
…that a desert traveller has for an oasis,
That Hanumanji has for Lord Rama’s bliss…
…that hitherto resounds in each of His heartbeat…
…that Mother Earth has for the touch of Thy petal soft Lotus Feet…
We beseech and seek Thy clemency…
…for all created beings…for suffering humanity…
…thus do we entreat Thee fervently…
…seeking Thy priceless benevolence,
Thy magnificent Presence…
Come, Oh! Beloved Soul, acquiesce, yield…
…transform man…to so be distinctly kind…
From a mind that does shackle, imprison and bind…
Come, set mankind free…
Thy Grace, Oh! Thee…most Blissful Entity…
…today, we pray to Thee…for Thee…
From devotees of yore we take our cue…
…with paeans galore they did Thee intensely woo…
…their names now glisten in the pages of history,
Come, assuage our aching hearts as well…
…be visible unto us too…
May our cravings also perennially abide in Thee…
…may we be drawn towards Thee assuredly….
Come, Oh! Treasure Supreme…
Come, Oh! Thee Ever Shimmering Cosmic Stream…
…come and add meaning to existence…
…lest these ceaseless tears form an ocean anew…
…Come and bestow Thy mercy…
Come, my Lord…fulfil this fervent longing…
…through lifetimes we have…all of creation has…
…awaited Thee…
