Dear Lord,
i have tried to leave you, to run away from you. But would You leave me!
Oh Beloved Arunachala, you have caught me and brought me back. You have caught me too tightly in your grasp. I can't run, where would i run, for you are all.
Lord, i am so blinded by You, by Your love that i can see nothing else. You are realer than the objects around me. Your love is realer than the 'love' of humans around me.
Lord, today i can really and honestly say (now that my spiritual cravings are over):
Ocean of Mercy, can anyone drenched with Thy kindness ever be affected even if destiny so decree? The very sight of Thy Holy feet has made me perfectly happy.
I look at you without craving, i look at You without the delusion that i am your devotee, with the knowledge that it is You who loves us unconditionally and without limit. I stand before you as an empty receptacle, not asking, just filling myself with your love, like the earth drenching itself in the blazing Sun.
if it be true that i have lived many lives, and loved many in those lives, and if it be true that this is my last life, then is it that You are my last and final love ? In this soul's long journey, are You the last and final love ?
