Prayer, A Love Letter to God

OM NAMO SRI SARVA VEDA MANTRA NILAYAYA NAMAHA DIVYA DARSHAN

I opened gates of my palace to give a grand welcome to God I decorated His Mandir with very costly flowers I prepared golden throne and expensive gifts But I could not have your darshan O! God.

I did a lengthy pooja and prayer systematically I arranged for bhajans and songs by professionals I chanted all the mantras, scriptures and stories

But I could not have your darshan O! Swamiji I decorated all the paths with lights and flowers I appointed hundreds of pandits to perform special pooja I requested hundreds of men to offer formal welcome But I could not have your darshan O! Master

I was disappointed and discouraged

I cried in anger; prayed in agony

I enquired with elders, pandits and scholars

I meditated, finally as You taught me once.

I realised in my meditation that

My eyes were closed in pride

My ears became deaf with knowledge

My hands were chained with wealth

My heart was filled with desires and doubts.

Now; my eyes are opened; I can see your smile

My ears are cleared; I can listen to you

My hands are released; I can touch your feet

My heart became vacant; I can have your Divya Darshan.
