This resonated quite deeply with me...as a matter of fact, I was with my spiritual master recently in India. Within seconds of our eyes union, there was a deep sense of love and gratitude followed with a personification of humility. I sent out a silent prayer from the core of my heart and wondered what enabled it? Is it His presence? Was it my joy? Was it all about the heart and its condition? No sooner had my thought left my scope of consideration, He sang two lines, a couplet of a song and everything seemed to get the answer. In that silence san a description, something magical was enabled that left a lasting resonance in our hearts. I am sharing those two lines and its meaning herewith.
Dil men kisi ke pyaar ka jalata hua diya
Duniya ki andhiyon se bhala ye bujhega kya?
A lamp of someone’s love burns within the heart —
Can the storms of the world ever extinguish it?
Saanson ki anch pa ke bhadkata rahega ye
Sine men dil ke saath dhadkata rahega ye
Fed by the warmth of breath, it will keep glowing brighter;
It will keep beating within the chest along with the heart.
Hope it resonates like it did with me - just two lines and a profound connection. May such a flame of love always burn in all.
