Satyaraj:

Why not the “Symphony of Spheres” played by Him and His en[t]ourage?

Talasiga:

Now you have caused a domestic squabble in my life. I asked my wife whether it was Holzt who composed this "Symphony of Spheres"

and she has called me a big fool......

Satyaraj:

Why a single flute solo by Hari?

Talasiga:

The Lonely Lord always invites accompaniment

but prospective musicians are always stunned

into silence by His riffs .....

Satyaraj:

It is said that Ravana was the inventor of the violin.

Talasiga:

Whoever said that doesn't know a peacock from an eagle ! Ravana invented the stringed bowed instrument called Sarangi.

(Today, the esteemed Pundit Ram Narayan

is the greatest maestro of that instrument.)

Satyaraj:

Do you think that Hari would discriminate violin players?

Talasiga:

Can you imagine Ramayana without Ravana ?

Satyaraj:

Or even a gopis’ choir?

Talasiga:

A Symphony of Priyas ?

Can we hear the Ferryman play His Flute ?

Is this is how He draws the Greatest Destination

What is the relevance here ?

When Krishna reveals Himself to them

will they say,

"No, no. WE will not look at Him.

We have no direct relationship with Him !"

?

And when Radha is under your autumn maple,

will you say,

"No, No. I will not look at You.

I have no Guru...." ?

Dear Friends

No true disciple can stand between you and your Guru

No true Guru can stand between you and Radha and

No Radha between you and Madhava.

Do you think that Krishna, Radha and Guru

are STOPPABLE ?

Do you think there are such village arrangements for them

as there are for caste based wells ?

My dear Leyh

Friend of the one

on the sliding sleigh,

Why didn't you post this prayer

on the "prayer" thread started by Valaya ?

At least there it may not have attracted all this fracas.

Any ideas??

........... I am not interested in experiencing Brahman; I am not interested in experiencing reality; I am not interested in experiencing truth.........

Here is an excerpt from a very long quote

that Shvu has provided. Here we have someone

who purportedly is not at all interested in

experience

but spends a lot of time talking about it.

Is this analogous to an atheist who denies the Divine

with every God given breath ?

Originally posted by suryaz:

"Lust"???

 

Why call it lust? Why be so negative?

(There are seven four letter words

in English ending with "ust")

For some lust

is a mixture of love and must

For others it is love and bust

Still others for whom it is just

a gust of corrosive air

which renders their iron will

into rust and blows it

about as dust

Her Lover is before her.

She prostrates at His Feet

Knowing Him only as Krishna.

When she looks up He has moved on

but still she can feel His Presence.

Is it such an Unseen Presence

that some call Allah ?

Satyaraj: That’s to say, all definitions won’t attain the Truth attained by a mukta, who has became as good as the Truth.
