Shiva Puranam - Thiruvachagam

http://postbalki.wordpress.com/2008/03/19/thiruvachagam-in-english/ Blessed is the name Na Ma Si Va Ya ! blessed are the Lord`s feet ! Blessed are the feet that part not from my bosom even for the time, the eyes take to wink ! Blessed are the feet of the Gem of a Guru who rules over Kokazhi ! Blessed are the feet of God who turning into the Aagamas, tastes sweet ! Blessed are the feet of Him who is one as well as many ! Hai the feet of the Sovereign who put an end to my commotion, and rules me ! Hail Pigngnaka`s feet – fastened with gem-inlaid anklets -, which do away with embodiment ! Hail the flowery and ankleted feet of Him who is far away from the pursuers of alien faiths ! Hail the King who indwells them and rejoices when they fold their hands in worship !

I am too but it is true I have not realized it fully but I am convinced I just need to work more Love is Dead When there is no thing other than consciousness When the One has projected into the many where is the question of the Other when the One is the MAny Hence there is no Other Hence there is no Love Love can be exhibited onl...

Who am I 1

I am on a Quest Something done so many times A Beaten Path Written many times over Religion lives on it Feeds on it Prayers made for it Fanatics kill for it And Gods try to hide it Yet I am on this Quest To know who I am Why am I here What am I doing Who is this God Where from does He come What is this substratum I had decided to follow the path shown by the Upanishads Philosophical portions of the Vedas A culture, a religion widely known as Hinduism Today Hinduism is plagues only by the term Caste People dont seem to understand that the caste has been there for ages and shall still remain There are only four categories of people Ones who research, ones who rule, ones who do business and ones who work for the other three We still are continuing the same thing Only that the culture decided to make it by birth as it was easier for education But this system of highs and lows came up later And as usual thats due to human greed and nothing else The Vedas do not mention anywhere that the bra...

Joy inside

There is no joy outside No fulfillment either Vain is the search outside When locked inside is a treasure There is no other thing Than the consciousness inside Where else to begin this search Than the looking glass called the mind Why do we search outside When there is this presence within To recognize and be The One and only Joy
