Walk On!

Pallav asked “how do I train myself?”

“Understand two terms Pallav-Satori and Koan,” gently replied Master.

“Come to me after a week, Pallav.”

“For now, then what do I do, Master?” inquisitively asked Pallav.

” Walk on!” laughed Master and closed his eyes.

At Bramhali women and men were observing fast today. Temple was adorned with floral garlands and leaves, fruits and vegetables were offered to the goddess who, the villagers believed, took care of their well being and prosperity. They were singing Bhajan and local songs to please her, women were adorned in their local attire that was full of embroidery and mirror work.

After making their offering they all gathered outside the temple and sang songs of the glory and praise of Mother Kaza. Women were preparing night sumptuous food.  Fire was lit, around that fire they all were performing their prayers dance expressing their unshakable faith in her experiencing happiness galore.

Rudrakash was ringing the temple bells. Aum had sent a baggage full of cymbals and other musical instruments for the morning and evening musical prayers. Whosoever could play whatever, they all picked and got absorbed in playing … Dorjee tried flute, Sanghaya took conch.

The entire ambience of the temple reverberated with songs of her praise and they all felt in a state of trance. An experience that they didn’t experience before and in that moment they knew why they were sent here.

They realized and felt the zenedo and temple to be one. Eyes closed, they sang and danced in state of trance and bliss inexplicable for hours uncountable

They all spoke in unanimity “now we know Master …why we are here!”
