Twenty five years back,
I was gifted with a rounded crystal pendant.
It was during a trip to England,
For my dance performances.
I was gifted with this precious crystal
By an art lover who had seen my dance performances.
I was thrilled to receive a gift so beautiful!
Back in India,
I attached the crystal pendant to a gold chain
And began wearing it around my neck.
Believe it or not,
Whenever I wore the crystal
Wonderful things began to happen.
What seemed impossible became possible.
What was not reachable became accessible.
One day, I went up a hillock wearing this crystal.
As the sun's rays pierced through my crystal pendant,
I could feel the warmth and radiance of the crystal.
It was not a lifeless stone,
It was a pulsating gem stone.
As I held the pendant in my hand,
I felt its heat and vibration.
The crystal was creating an energy field,
I could feel the energy entering into my hands,
It was soothing, comforting, and healing me.
It may sound sceptical or incredulous,
But crystals began to teach me to serve.
To serve humanity with my little gestures.
To express my love with little deeds of kindness.
A word of courage to an ailing and desperate heart,
A sweet smile with a loving glance to the needy or ignored,
A benevolent heart to bestow generously to the ones around you,
Not just to perceive Big Gods in resplendent temples, churches alone,
But to see little gods in the heart of every human being,
To serve with humility, honesty and true love.
(2) Subsequently, the energy got directed 'To express my love with little deeds of kindness' towards ailing, needy or ignored persons around. Since it emanates from your own experience, no one doubts its veracity. Thanks, Geeta Ma'am..
Not just.... Big Gods in resplendent temples, churches.... ....But to see little gods in the heart of every human being.... //....

I think dancing made you especially receptive to pulsations flowing through and around you. Also, you could resonate with the elegant order in natural objects. This must be especially true for a practitioner of Indian dance, because it has a strong inner dimension: contemplation and physical movement are fused as one.
While answering this beautiful amazing poem of you, the day has become after midnight and I must finish this responding your marvelous poem about that beautiful crystal gift.
