Like a flower that has been ignored by the virgin, to be put in the basket she holds so dearly—let me suffer my Lord, for, I have been very arrogant and haughty about my fragrance. Let all my beauty and tenderness be dashed in the curing dust of thy feet! Like a pearl that has been ignored by the virgin, to be threaded for... 

I, perhaps, can withstand or think to withstand the burning anguish of worldly sorrows; for, in my mind, I have a strong conviction that they are at thy will and that whatever may happen, but ye will not leave me. But I am afraid of the sins that I have committed or was forced to commit, and therefore, have lost even the possession... 

Half of the day I pass in your wait; half I pass in remorse of not finding you. Half of the night I pass in your dream’s wait; half I pass in remorse of not dreaming you. Half of my life has passed in your quest; and half I will pass in remorse of your separation.  Read More →

We are bound by the dual sense of failure and success; of pain and pleasure; of expectation and dejection; for, ‘The Will-er’ of this world has willed the senses to be so. On the pilgrimage towards the ultimate realization, almost everybody tries his or her feet. Some trod fast and some take breath to get the control of... 

The world is a stage; life, a drama; we, playing different characters; and our beloved Director, seats majestically upon the audience chair. He observes every actor very keenly and closely.

Some have experienced the authenticity of this statement and, therefore, have immense faith in the power of prayer. However, there is no argument or objection against the power of prayer: no,... 

You have not accepted me, my lord, due to my crookedness and unworthiness. You made me to understand my inability and let me live in the feeling of self-depreciation and self-accusation. Death rejected to crown me and I find it impossible to live with the seething feeling of self-disgust and self-incrimination. Shame and mortification... 

When I tread lonely lane for the tryst, my lover hides himself and meets me not. When I sit back in my darkened room, he fills everything with his presence. When I beg for his love, he checks for the sincerity of my prayers; and when I lie down dejected, the surrounding air caresses my hair like his fingers. He eludes my touch... 

A mother-crocodile throws its new-born into deep water to make it learn the art of swimming. Now that it knows how to swim, it may rush to its mother even if she is busy otherwise and could not come. Our Divine-mother throws us in the sea of delusions—this world! We hardly try to learn swimming. If she is busy and could not... 

When I sleep some sleepless sleeps: When some breathless breath I breathe: When I tolerate some intolerable tolerance: Everybody tries to snub me thence.
