When some unheard melodies were heard
In the recess of my heart's blue space
An unseen cave of my soul was opened
Like a tunnel of twilight from my heart
Upwards in a stream of crystalline waters
As I drifted like a dancing wave of thought
Towards the end of that tunnel of twilight
Beyond I saw a wide flaming mouth of a volcano
Later it turned into a huge Orb of splendor
The Sun with his glorious white flames blazing!
Then at once I was cascaded into an ocean
Of nectar where I felt a surge of life within
While swimming in the ocean of moon like nectar
I saw an island of the Sun with dazzling rays,
In the vast realm of the Sun field I reached
The top of a shining ruby mountain, and
Amazed I watched the beauty of amethyst trees,
Emerald plants and sapphire ponds with
Glittering golden lotuses,there after I reached
A cliff of lustrous moon and saw an amazing heart
Shaped rosy bed, blazing with myriads of flames
Minuter than the minutest, finest and subtlest
A seat of heavenly splendor, in the middle of it
I saw the most beautiful maiden, a fascinating nude
Reclining on the bed like the queen of my heaven.
Her graceful movements enchanting and enthralling
Her graceful glances passionate and compassionate
And her limbs radiating rays of a million raising suns
As if the Lord of Heaven Himself assumed the form
Of a maiden to enchant the entire universe, and she
With a sweet laugh, stretched her hands to enfold me
In her embrace and when I was melting with love
In her blissful embrace she whispered in my ear
'I am the Lord of universe, among the hearts who
Love me I have the pleasure and passion to soak them
In my nectar fall of unconditional love and bliss'
And that very moment I looked at that maiden's face
And found it was the Lord Himself who is the Self of all
And whom I embraced with passion and love is identical
To my self then the eternal wisdom dawned in my heart
I realized that I am identical to the self of the Universe
I am the absolute existence, imperishable and I am shining
In the hearts of all beings as I am the light of the universe.
