Devoted Listening Embodied - Poem by Br Minalben
As we celebrate Guru Purnima, we have the opportunity to recollect the virtues of Param Pujya Guruma, as expressed by Brahmnishth Minalben. The still, silent, striving Guruma embodied Shravan Bhakti, devoted listening, as this moving poem explains.
In Veneration, we bow at your lotus feet Gurumaa.
In Silence her Soul we find, A divine gleam of a mother so kind.
Consciousness she kept manifesting, Peacefully quiet she kept resting.
She sat on the armchair doing nothing, No one knew, how heaps of karmas she kept busting.
Wealth in abundance all around, Yet true treasures within she found.
Like a lotus in a pond, she remained untouched, In blissful privacy she remained clutched.
Drenched in Bapujis' holy showers, By deep contemplation she empowers.
From letters of vachanamrut, she gained insights, In meditation, like a sheath, the body divides.
Gnansaar and Adhyatmasaar were her favourite texts, A pinnacle of spirituality she apexed. Today we promise to strive, By living your virtues we shall keep you alive.
