That you are compelled so to walk amongst us: this gives us the faith to find meaning in our lives, we who know not if we are to be as beasts or spirits blessed. We who hesitate not to **** for loot and lucre as much for our disbelievings.
Not to be trifled, a babe eating mud, creations can be glimpsed in its mouth. Impish pranks of childhood days forebodings of pastimes sublime. Nobody will dare spar a cherub, for the light shines through caves and prisons. Nor slight a woman noble. When it rains and the river swells, always a thirst to see miracle partings. On fields reddened with blood, the call of righteous battle. And awe, at the enveloping Supreme.
And to love, is to be divine, that when love dawns, no need for theories and proofs otherwise. Truly on dust-laden dusks, the westerly wind tugs at the heart, that you may yet return with the cattle.
Tribute to Lord Krishna, India's favourite god, and a friend and guide to her civilization, whose birth is being commemorated now!
