The Song of Silence

Om Namo Bhagavate Shri Ramanaya

You and I,

When in silent communion,

Amidst all the worldly din,
The Internal and external,

Dissolves in the eternal,

You follow me with thy presence,

While I clutch my form,

To remind me of my essence,

Vibrant silence, beyond forms and norms (You and I.....)

I know not my path of journey,

Nor do I know when it ends,

With you by my side,

Unmindful I am of the journey,

How and far it extends ! (You and I....)

Om Namo Bhagavate Shri Ramanaya.

Inspired by a quaint little Shiva temple on the way to work on the road side, set amidst a rocky background and green surroundings. Strangely enough, amidst all the traffic of Bangalore, the place simply fills one with peace, as He simply exudes Grace.

Such were those which took place in the presence of Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi. Any ardent seeker's life is peppered with miracles or divine interference. There are two common outlooks towards miracles. While most intellectual seekers on the path of Self realization often have a self imposed indifferent attitude towards miracles, seekers on the path of bakti or devotion often get lost in miraculous happenings. In my humble opinion, I guess focusing on Grace, the underlying factor of miracles than focusing on miraculous happenings themselves, or being aware of miracles rather than b...
