In an ocean of plenitude

A finite speck sparkles

On its own it is the life-force

That has the quantum magnitude of all possibilities

Delivering itself through service to the Lord

Where mountains have collapsed the rivers are set free

The ocean meets the ocean

In the forests of Naimisharanya

The holy fire burning

In the rhythm of a mantra

The revelations are true

They are network convergence of proximal and distal timelines

Computing data from non-local hubs

But something higher than that is the wonder of the elusive moment

It is the transcendental nature of the spectacle

That creates the response to liberation

The trees are standing in their pristine glory

Narmada is the face of the sun

Configuration of stars is data encrypted

Only by pure bhakti the key may be turned in

Turned and turned again….

Knowing without knowing

The wind blows through the pines

The sky is laughter unto itself

Witness to all

And these moments that fed the skull and the bones

Relative to the cycle of the yugas

Stand beneath the rock and the river

To tell the author of their lives

All that they shared and many more

Sitting beside the moonlight cave

The holy fire burning…

“Naimise ‘nimisakhetre

Rsayah saunakadayah

Satram svargayalokaya

Sahasra-sanam asata”.  (Canto 1, Chapter 1 Srimad Bhagavatam)
