Jasmine Petals

Folder: 
Hindu

*

As from His hand
materialized jasmine petals
arranged themselves into
script
spelling Sai Baba

so does forgiveness rearrange
the stars.. they move in
new patterns of mercy
and miracles

Those aligned to God
can the elements command..
move the prana to our
demands

***
Prana: Sanskrit for the energy omnipresent
in the air

Devotees experience that Baba creates as it were
a special canopy of protection above them through which
the star power manifests

Once a lesson is learned, the soul becomes like
a lake which can be harmed by no smashing fist

 

Sai Baba: The ocean
is always engaged
in omkar (the chanting
of Om)

Sanskrit is the only
language (and sometimes
90% Sanskrit Tamil
and Telugu) whose
characters match the
pattern the sound
vibration makes.

Each syllable of Sanskrit
is linked to the vibration
of a different star.

Sir Wm Jones, occupying judge when

the British empire controlled India, wrote: Sanskrit
is more perfect than
Latin, more copious
than Greek, and more
exquisitely refined than
either.
