Shiva
Perchance in the solitude
of the lofty Western Ghats,
A Traveller am i,
Travelling through the
Rolling hills and the green glades and the sylvan streams.
From this mountain to the
next, i find this land permeated by Shiva – The Eternal Being, The Ancient One.
Amidst the Majestic peaks,
Adorned with Shiva temples, Like the Human Soul adorned with the presence of
the Cosmic Lord!
The morning sun, shedding
its Golden light upon the mountains,
Like the Divine Mother
Gouri- She, whose complexion is like Molten Gold, Embracing the Blissful
Shankara in an eternal embrace – The Cosmic Entwining of Purusha and Prakriti,
In the vastness of this land.
The Green Sahyadris
greeting my eyes wherever i look, i am reminded of the Virat Purusha – The
cosmic form of Shiva.
He, who is Everywhere and
in Everything,His three eyes- The Sun, the Moon and the Fire.
The one without a second, The
Summum- Bonum of this and million other parallel universes.
And in the serenity of
this setting, amidst pitch-deep silence, where silence covers silence, bubbles
forth a voice from the depths of my soul-“I AM”.
“I AM” –The sound of the
Primordial EGO.
Verily This “I” have i identified with “SHIVA”. And This “I AM” has
finally melted into “Shivoham”.
“I AM SHIVA”, Lord You in
Me, I in You, I have become You!!
