Mother! What is soul?

What is spiritual strength? How can one attain it?

Know that the Soul is divine

It takes bodily forms of many a beauty.

It is the body, which perishes

But the soul merges into infinity.

A large mango tree hides in a small seed,

Infinite knowledge in the soul is concealed,

When it rains, the seedling sprouts,

When one yearns, knowledge is revealed.

Why is Introspection necessary ?

When the larva encapsulates,

Emerges a pretty butterfly,

When one introspects,

Knowledge flowers profusely.

The water drops are countless

So are the types of species

When one does good deeds

One realises this expanse.

God has given you spiritual strength,

Use it to serve Him every day,

By helping all beings,

In the most modest way.

I will tell you an incident

Different tribes came one of the days

They were homely, simple and innocent

They lived their life in various ways ||1||

Mother! We are illiterate

We don’t have any knowledge

Children and our family

Is the life we trudge||2||

Then how should we do “Yoga”

And concentrate on Lord

Oh Mother! Please tell us

To develop soul and ward? ||3||

Every mango tree has fruits

In every mango there is seed

Every human a fruit of nature

Bears too the spiritual seed ||4||

Do work like it's God's bidding

Love Him with innocent bliss

Your soul harbours strength

In peace like space soundless ||5||

Oh Mother! Please tell us more

We are already feeling blessed

Advise us some path by which

Wife and husband can progress||6||

Husband and wife are wheels of chariot

Progress in mystique

Married couples love each other

Union of souls to seek.

The bangles in hands of bride

Are symbols of 'Truth' and “Dharma”

The sound of these night and morn

Is music of “Lord Brahma” ||8||

Apply red vermilion to the fore-head

Energise centre of knowledge within

The infant in mother's lap sees the "bindi"

Its unsteady eyes to focus begin||9||

When it sees the tears of happiness

In is mother's eyes kind

The infant emerges from depression

Of separation from 'Brahma' in mind||10||

Oh Mother! Yes Mother!

Oh Mother! Yes Mother!

Oh Mother! Yes Mother!

Oh Mother! Yes Mother! ||11||

You find holy trees in the forest

Like 'Bel' , 'Audumbar', 'Tulsi'

Dry their leaves and light them

And worship 'Yagnya' holy ||12||

Together you should then pray

For the well-being of children all

Talk sweetly with each other

“Shlokas” shall life enthral ||13||

Truth, Dharma, Love and Peace

Let this in your heart be blissfully

Know you're Shiva and wife is 'Shakti'

Then you'll develop spiritually ||14||

In the travelers lodge

Depending on the guest

Those people assemble

Who have the same quest ||1||

Body is house of virtues

Shelter those of good power

The divine'll manifest in you

'Satsangis" will visit every hour. ||2||

The pure Ganga flows murmuring

From the Himalayas and through forest

Rejuvenating life of all the people

Who live on the shores of it ||1||

People take the water in small vessels

As an object devotional

So too the stream of 'Infinite Truth'

Flows in everybody eternal ||2||

The exquisite diamond shines in the crown of Lord

The rays of sun into it surge

A game of reflections and images takes place

The colours of spectrum then emerge ||1||

You gather many 'capabilities' in several lives

These are encapsulated in the diamond of the soul

When expansive devotion occupies the heart

Colours of “Atma Shakti” *emerge||2||

The medicinal herbs are mixed together

They are wrapped with decorative cover

This cover is given a good name

But the herb is health achiever||1||

When the medicine is finished

Does anyone eat the cover?

Then why does the mind wander?

And always praise the cover? ||2||

We should recognize the truth

That life is only because of “Jeev Atma”

By spreading love every moment

One can become a "Mahatma" ||3||
