SUNLIGHT

From darkness God spoke; “let there be light”! and there was light!
To Earth he gave his white hot mighty fire named Sun,
A mass of vast atomic power that’s second to none,
Warming his planets by day and cooling them by night,
All moving round His mammoth majestic sight.
A Gir-pradakshina around their Guru done,
They then finish their annual Sadhak’s run,
As that gigantic Shivaic force blazes on and on!

That Sun is the macrocosm of our Real Self unborn,
Which shines as microcosm in every human heart,
Alas it is obscured by darkest vasanas forlorn,
It’s blazing light fails to reach the blinkered soul,
But by Enquiry and Surrender, ‘That’ will make one whole!
Dark ego causes our Solar Eclipse,
Insightful wisdom pours from our Guru’s lips.
