Love, Dana Message: 14 Sun, 12 Jun 2005 14:20:40 -0700 Michele Doane Greenstein <ganesh1008 Re: Devi Bhava Namah Shivaya Dana, Thank you for your description of Devi Bhava. So wonderful. One marvels that a being in a human body can be so incredibly beautiful. Your longing reminds this sibling very much of a Rumi poem (below). Jai ma! Prasadini LOVE DOGS One night a man was crying, "Allah! Allah!" His lips grew sweet with the praising, until a cynic said, "So! I have heard you calling out, but have you ever gotten any response? The man had no answer to that. He quit praying and fell into a confused sleep. He dreamed he saw Khidr, the guide of souls, in a thick green foliage. "Why did you stop praising?" "Because I've never heard anything back" "This longing you express >is< the return message." The grief you cry out from draws you toward union. Your pure sadness that wants help is the secret cup. Listen to the moan of a dog for it's master. That whining is the connection. There are love dogs no one knows the name of. Give you life to be one of them. -Rumi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
