Mother Divine,
from time to time a breath of Thy Grace passes upon the human, struggling here upon earth, as if to wipe off all its sweat and tears. This wonderful Grace then takes man and earth in Her arms of infinite Mercy and Love. Your kiss of Love wakes us out of the nightmare and we perceive another world float before our eyes, a world of Truth, a world of ageless Beauty and endless charm, a world ringing sweet symphonies of Thy Love. This other world is so close to us, indeed it is our truest Truth and we ourselves dwell there as citizens. Yet we feel it far just as a person who is asleep wanders far even though the world where he truly lives is right there, always there, beside us. All that is needed is to open our eyes and see.
When our sleep is too dense as when we are sunk in tamas, we feel not the kiss. Then perhaps a shake-up is needed for our souls to wake to the truth of things. When we are enjoying the dream chasing illusory joys and running away from ghostlike shadows, then too we do not feel the kiss. We are too busy running here and there to take note. But when we try, in whatever limited way, to lead a truer and more beautiful life, to progress beyond our present limitations, when our ignorance becomes a seeking ignorance which wants to know the meaning and purpose of it all, then we feel the gentle touch, the kiss that wipes away all tears, and hear the whisper that enchants our hearts forever. Once we have felt this even for a moment our hearts can never rest and sleep again until we have found our Divine Beloved and his eternal embrace.
Maa, may all wake up to this blessedness. May all have the joy of feeling Thy embrace that rends the knot of suffering and pain forever.
