“would you, sweet child, like this gift from me…?”
Friday, September 27th, 2019
If the next breath has no craving for the Supreme Being… …i’d rather not breathe… scribbled thus this mother, writing an inspiring letter to someone whom she loved to guide, longing for a single favour, nope… a single boon, no…, entreating nothing but ‘Intense Love For Beloved Mother Sai’. A ‘heart-blossoming’ poetic beauty from that mother, whose first and foremost… and ‘Only Love’ ever is ‘Beloved Mother Sai’! Penned by Sri Jullie Chaudhuri.
Dear sweet child,
To speak of The Supreme Absolute,
…how, where and whence do i commence…?
That Ultimate Unifying Force, That Primal Being…
…did descend as Sri Sathya Sai…
…that we may all ascend…
…beyond barriers and realms…
In this complex material milieu…
…only He makes any sense for me and you…
He Is the Sun and It’s dazzling brilliance…
He Is the Moon and…
…of each moonbeam…
…the soothing radiance…
He Is Space and Air…
He Is Fire, Water and Earth…
Only He can help you transcend birth, death and rebirth,
He Is in you, He Is in me,
And in all creatures of the land, air and sea,
He gave the birds wings and…
…He Is the wind beneath their wings…
…that makes them fly,
There is none to know His Might nor measure the extent of His Will,
No one can understand His Glory…
…His Profound Mystery, how much ever they may try…
Yet,
He remains so personal, loving and intimate to each individual heart as -
Beloved Mother Sai!
So, there is nothing i can give you,
For i own nothing…and so nothing is mine to give,
Yet,
There is something that has seeped deep…that makes me live…
…and shapes my destiny…
Would you, sweet child, like this gift from me…?
Not even the slightest edge of knowledge do i possess…
However,
Fate did me bless…when it did bestow upon me wholeheartedly,
Yearning and Love Supreme and Marvellous Joy…
…that makes my heart endearingly sing…
…paeans in adoration and worship of Him…
…at the mere mention of His Name, His Glory and Cosmic Fame…
His Beauty and Splendour,
His Petal Soft Lotus Feet and Beauteous Eyes…
…that make my heart stir in bliss…
That overwhelming intensity at His Presence and Essence…
…i can share with you…sans pretence…
If the next breath has no craving for the Supreme Being…
…i’d rather not breathe,
Longing for Him should never ebb nor recede,
This is the gift, sweet child, that you receive from me…
…all that i am and ever will be…
…i remain replete at His Most Cherished Lotus Feet.
