My Humble Obeisance
Written shortly after Sri Chinmoy's passing. His body now resides in the 'Samadhi' at Aspiration-Ground
Eyes peeping into Infinity reflect the golden lights of the Heavens, thronging in celebration
Too, the collection of tears from earth crying, pleading for the Father to stop this game of maya
Your eyes flicker like wings of a bird flying into the vastness of Samadhi
Too, the candles prayerfully inside the temple flicker, offering their humble obeisance to your eyes of splendor
Bells reverberate, colouring the blue sky with celestial chiming
Too, our hearts sing an auspicious haunting melody, reluctantly bidding adieu
Conches ring throughout the sky’s and those flickering eyes now sealed, gently soar down into the lap of Mother Earth and nest in her sacred soils ‘Samadhi’
