Vasant Vibes

Basant Panchami heralds the arrival of spring, painting the earth in vibrant hues of yellow and awakening hearts to new beginnings. Dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the embodiment of wisdom, music, and the arts, this festival inspires creativity and spiritual growth. In this tanka, I’ve woven the essence of spring’s melodies with the divine grace that breathes life into every word penned. The mustard blooms, the playful breeze, and the quill’s gentle strokes echo the celebration of nature’s renewal and the soul’s poetic journey. May these lines dance with the same joy and devotion that Basant Panchami evokes.

Melodies of spring. 

Oh! By Thy Grace, my quill drafts, 

songs of lush bloomings.

Beneath the mustard awnings, 

winds sing, life flirts, in Thy love.

Happy Basant Panchami! May your quill always dance to the melodies of inspiration.

 Magnificent, Thy form. 

Formless, Thy eternal divinity.

Rising chants of Thy glory, 

reverberating, 

dispelling all darkness, all agony.

O Lord of pious beginnings! 

Bless us all, with Thy grace.

 The cosmos dances,

to the flute-tune of cowherd, 

the rhythm, hypnotic.

Like the pied-crested cuckoo, 

thirsty, parched and dry, 

Thy Meera, 

seeks Thee, 

yearns for Thy name-water, 

the priceless elixir, 

the valuable gemstone. 

The blessed downpour of Thy grace, 

Meera sings Thy name, 

and Thee satiates her longing. 

A treasure to cherish, 

she loses all 

to find Thy richness. 

And thus blest, 

radiant with joy, 

she follows the melody of Thy flute 

and Thee leads her to salvation. 

Mesmerizing, the play of love and devotion. 

The pied-cuckoo is always quenched.

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare.

sacred legacy.

Jai ma

The tinkling anklets ring,
marking the arrival of Mahagauri.
The  Navdurga is venerated
for nine auspicious nights.
Nine manifestations of mother,
teach us to
still our mind like a stone,
strive to reach the pinnacles,
challenge the horizons,
revel in the infinity that we are,
tame the wanderlust of our thoughts,
streamlining, balancing, synchronizing them.
She who resides within us
and yet is so beyond,
who is the creation and the creator,
who cares for
the infinitesimally small atoms and
the immeasurable galaxies equally,
who advocates fairmindedness,
who imparts skill, spirit and sensibility,
who bestows abundance and prosperity,
may she Bless us.
All the time zones, all light,
all our emotions, all life, all creations,
the energies that sustains the cosmos,
the strength, transformation, anger,
beauty, compassion, fear, and power,
everything blends into her.
Like saplings,
planted in fertile soil,
may we grow and prosper,
nestled safely in the bosom of Adishakti,
so tender yet so strong.
Jai ma. Jai Jai ma.
