23. I And You are One

 

Baba!

I often say that you are my Master!

If it is so

Does it not mean?

I and you are separate entities.

Is it correct to think thus?

Immediately on entering my life

You occupied the inner chambers of my heart

Driving the ‘I’ almost out of me

But do you not remember

It is you alone who told me

To complete the discharge of my respolnsibilities

Before you allow my ‘I’ to leave the body

 

And clever as you are

You slowly showed me the beautiful garden

Of rendering organizational seva of your

And the flowers of various hues sporuting therein

Name, fame and position.

Exceedingly charming to look at

It I got involved in their beauty

Leaving you on the back buster

How can you blame me for it

For it was your own doing.

 

Let be gones be bye gones

Why shall I talk of the past?

You are now firmly enthroned in my heart

Make me lose my sepearat identity

So that eternity may sing songs

Of your pure Divinity

And call you

The Bestower of Grace of your bhaktas

Making them one with you

Shedding away the distinction

Of Master and servant.

 

24. When the World Sleeps

 

When the world sleeps

You O’ my Baba!

Keep wide awake.

Your watchful eyes

Keep a vigil on your bhaktas

To rid them of their miseries.

 

Day in and day out

At all times of the day and night

Unmindful of the calamities of Nature

During winter, summer and rains

You remain constantly absorbed in your task

Don’t you ever feel bored?

O’ my Baba.

 

And what you normally get from those

Whom you protect with all your abounding love?

Mouthful boasts of their own prowess

Of their capacity to achieve, their intelligence to plan and what not

Why don’t you share with them

Your patience, your coolness, your dedication

O’ my Baba!

You are great and wonderful.
