Prayer To Dakshinamurthi For Enlightenment Poem by Ramesh Joshi

Under banyan tree, sits radiant
master, knowledge embodied, silent
Serene, , full grace, watch profound,
ready, shower words of grace.

Pupils gaze, sublime visage admire
ready, seek doubts, dispelled,
subtleties, knowledge of divine
means, cross deep ignorance.

Doubts raised, of creation, the
cause, the matter transformed,
From primordial force life sprung
shaping form from void ?

Mystery, death hides from
mortals, leading to unknown,
transform, transmute
booty back not earth, snatched?

Spirit dwell, in or out?
created wings, outspread, dove sits
hover round, hatch fresh creation.
knows no certain what about?

know, unknown means
realise self, unlock locked
mystery, stagged, stringed, in
One master! Pray, reveal.

Dakshinamurti, Lord Shiva,
Yogi, bless devout devotees,
Pray, true at heart, His name.
Salutations Dakshinamurti.
