Upachara (Offering)
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007The roses offer
themselves to Ma
as they die.
One by one
the petals drop
at her feet
and into her lap.
Soon, only the
stem remains.
It is She!
It is He!
The infinite, open way.
Each day
remember this.
As soon as you can
relax and let
the petals of
fate and fixation
fall.
Do puja with
these offerings
of Self to Self.
Then see how beautiful She is
clothed
in color, silk, and scent.
Shambhavi
