Sarou Mandala - Sun Meditation



Oh, dear companion - come to my village - that lies beyond the sovereign suvam'areka' river - when walking along the seaside - come to that river - the path leads across the dunes of the sea - when the sun rises there - the sky and the sea bloom with color - that color awakens my mind - and gives me infinite pleasure - In the cashew nut orchard - the colored birds always dance - the hawks fly over to unknowns places - the sailor starts his journey - hearing the far song of the rivers current - he moves towards the sea - without any other thought in mind.

(Song Number: 911 from Bengali Song Poetry by P.R. Sarkar)

Music: Soja
Chant: Baba Nam Kevalam - means - only the name of the Beloved...

From my heart to yours - Peace
