Sathya Sai Who? Poem by doug bentley

Sathya Sai Who?

Rating: 5.0


Far far away
in another galaxy

called called

o, i don't know
it's such a small place*


lived a miraculous man
who spewed ash

from the palm
of his hand

and had done so
for a very very

long time and shiva
never danced so fast


as he could make
your head spin

and spin and spin and spin



* Puttaparthi, Andhra Pradesh, India

ref: Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926 - 2011) ?

Yes, in Andhra Pradesh, there lived such a Baba, who was indeed a crowd puller and had an aura of divinity about him! He is believed to be an incarnation of God. However, he performed many miracles which ordinary mortals are incapable of doing, There is a divine spark within every one. Some blaze this smouldering spark into a flame through meditation and prayer. You seem to be familiar with Indian Gods and spirituality! Interesting! !
