... powerful than any other ...


O Divine Mother!

Your atmosphere is powerful 
Than any mental form
Your presence is powerful 
Than any cronic host...

Your surrounding is powerful
Than any neighbour close 
Your grooming is powerful 
Than any nurtured soil...

Your seeding is powerful
Than any nature ansient
Your blooming is powerful
Than any fruitful material...

O Mother! 
You and Lord's Power
Powerful than any other
Your child with YOU in centre
Unaffected by any existence...

Greateful for ever...

Thank you...

In God's supreme withdrawn and timeless hush
A seeing Self and potent Energy met; 
The Silence knew itself and thought took form: 
Self-made from the dual power creation rose. 
In the still self he lived and it in him; 
Its mute immemorable listening depths, 
Its vastness and its stillness were his own; 
One being with it he grew wide, powerful, free. 
Apart, unbound, he looked on all things done. 
As one who builds his own imagined scenes 
And loses not himself in what he sees, 
Spectator of a drama self-conceived, 
He looked on the world and watched its motive thoughts 
With the burden of luminous prophecy in their eyes, 
Its forces with their feet of wind and fire 
Arisen from the dumbness in his soul. 
All now he seemed to understand and know; 
Desire came not nor any gust of will, 
The great perturbed inquirer lost his task; 
Nothing was asked nor wanted any more. 
There he could stay, the Self, the Silence won: 
His soul had peace, it knew the cosmic Whole.

It is intended by the word Presence to indicate the sense and perception of the Divine as a Being, felt as present in one's existence and consciousness or in relation with it, without the necessity of any further qualification or description. Thus, of the "ineffable Presence" it can only be said that it is there and nothing more can or need be said about it, although at the same time one knows that all is there, personality and impersonality, Power and Light and Ananda and everything else, and that all these flow from that indescribable Presence.
That is always the fundamental significance, — the essential perception of the essential Presence supporting everything else. SA



It is the Divine Presence that gives value to life. This Presence is the source of all peace, all joy, all security. TM
