The word Samyama dates back to Patanjali and it means different things to different people, but the recent turn of events in my life has changed what this word means for me forever. It is the process where I was virtually taken out of my worldly life settings by an unparalleled power and soaked in the grace and love of a deeply compassionate being. Only to be thrown back again in the worldly mess once the lure of the latter began to dissolve. It was an experience infinitely greater than my own being's capacity to fathom, comprehend and leave alone express. Yet, here is an attempt -
Out of the blue you
called this terrible fool,
As he tore out of
his claustrophobic body,
Is when you threw
him back to the Karmic whirlpool…
You invoked the
Mahadev to destroy this creature,
His karmic body did
experience a tiny fissure,
Through this very
hole he tasted his real nature…
Twelve years long
solar cycle wasted in outward search,
One moment you took
to show that he was only dirt…
Perhaps his karmas
had not earned him a longer stay,
But the tears of
clarity made him understand his ways,
It is the breath
that he has to spend his time with,
Clean his windshield
that is splattered with karmic bullshit…
No use to paint
stories on this shit smeared window,
Patiently tending to
the roots and shoots of the seed is the only way it will grow…
