I get to meet my hero
I am so in awe and admiration of Judy. I am in so much awe and admiration. This is at the Naval Observatory (VP's residence) to celebrate ADA30.
Conversations with God
Conversations with God
A feeling of lightness
Of bonds breaking free
I look down at my body below
And people that stand around it
Tears on their faces
Anguish in their hearts
They mourn the carrion of flesh and bone
While unshackled, flies my soul
Mourn me not my loved ones.
My words unheard by those below
My mortal body is Maya, mere illusion
Brahman, transcendent reality, is my soul
I will always be with you, dear ones
Grief at start will fade to distant memory
Your dreams and your memories
Are conversations with God really
I travel with angels all around me
Apsaras dance to heaven’s melody
Gloria in excelsis deo
Glory to God in the Highest
O Resplendent Light, Phos Hilaron
I see the face of God before me
Down there at His divine feet
I settle myself down in ecstasy
The Cosmic Director smiles down on me
Are you ready for the next act, asks He.
You may tarry a while in My company
Before I assign you, your next role
Kaala tithaya am I, beyond space and time
Siddha Sankalpaya, My will is instantaneous
I protect and nourish earthkind at all times
For I am verily the Embodiment of Love
Human existence involves, He explains
Births, deaths and rebirths
A karmic cycle of cause and effect
Free will of man plays a mighty role
Free Will I give to man, for I love you most
Use it well in the roles you lead
With spiritual evolution you will reach
Your ultimate destiny, mergence with Me
God recounts the roles of past played by me
Movie clip images, scenes flash before me
Countless colors, countries and lifestyles do I see
In the multitudes of lifetimes I have led.
Ignorant was I, now understanding dawns
Human life is transient at best
Death, a mere comma in the cosmic scheme
So why waste trifles over mortal emotions
To experience Happiness
One must know sorrow
Tests of the morrow
Are but a path to the end
