I saw the Sacred Be,
Children descending
One by One
Like beads in a rosary
To pay homage to Life
Only guided by their instinct and love
Leonard Cohen is a legendary person worth watching live. Please check his web site for upcoming shows near you.
I see the passage of time and a moment of moments lived and appreciated in hindsight!
I am not a child anymore. The boy became a man and a shadow of himself. I now understand my beloved grandmother (Maa): This is a world of endings! Everything in it perishes except the Face of God!
The song by Jagjit Singh, Who Kagaz Ki Kashti, captures the nostalgia Audio: 01 Woh Kagaz Ki Kashti. English translation follows:
Do take my gold, and my fame, if you must
My little paper boat, the fresh rain’s thrill
She, who, lived here as old as the road
She, whose wrinkles of years so many
My little paper boat, the fresh rain’s thrill
We’d marry our dolls and fight over it
And those little trinkets of copper and bark
My little paper boat, the fresh rain’s thrill
To drag our feet over smooth high dunes
A castle here, a hillock there
In a world of joy, relations none did prune
Wasn’t it beautiful, that life of ours?
“I hope you dance” by Lee Ann Womack
Let water touch your naked skin;
Remove the cloth of decency & hypocrisy:
Let Water Purify You.

Expose yourself a little-
Bare your skin:
Experience the touch-
Do not swim while emptying the pool.
Live Life-
Experience the Orgy:
Don’t Just believe in It.
