Glimpses of Sentiments
pure knowledge, joy, glowing purity of crystal, immense power and treasure of virtues and profound peace. And that is freedom from the known. But I have one worry. I shall not like 'Moksha', freedom as I may not get a chance of devotion to you in it. I shall lose an opportunity of making prayers to you. Joy of obeying your order also will go away. How shall I be able to keep sentiments of sacrifice in 'Moksha'? I shall not be able to perform your 'abhishek' (constant flow of water ceremoneously, with tears of my sentiments. How this void could be filled in 'Moksha'? In freedom gained by devoting to you, I shall not feel at ease without devotional feelings. in devoting to you, this dangerous situation constantly harass me. In gaining freedom from pain, unhappiness, death, disease, physical body, actions, evils, the freedom from devotion coming naturally, I just cannot afford. There is no more severe punishment is there for me than this one, O Prabhu!
