i turn 24 today! 💖 23 has been a dream shaped by Guru’s grace. externally, Guru’s grace took me to places i thought i’d never see, such as the transcendental Himalayas, while it internally catapulted me to priorly unimagined heights of euphoria & expansion. when i look back to my young life, i glimpse a golden thread expertly weaving each fragment and pulling me to where i am now; a glimmer nestled within me, of me and yet not of me, calling to me, caring for me, polishing me, shaping me – preparing me, guiding me to the path. a glimmer, a spark; the love of the Guru. the love of Mahādevī. the love of Hari.
and so, today i am moved to share verses from a sweet song.
☁️ time, mystical time
gave me the blues and then purple pink skies
were there clues
i didn’t see?
isn’t it just so pretty to think
all along there was some
invisible string
tying You to me?
a string that pulled me…
something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire
chains around my demons,
wool to brave the seasons
one single thread of gold tied me to You. ☁️
today & every day i pray to flow like the waters of the magnificent Gaṅgā Devī holding me in this photo. 💖
