________________
Kaveri and Agastya
ponse he received was a resonant rhythm in the current which seemed to say:
"Salutations to you, Agastya !" "Salutations to you, Gurudev !"
Agastya looked at the half-finished garland in his hand, offered it to the stream, and rose to go. But before he departed, he made his last request to Kaveri: "Will you tell the world that my tears are all mingled in your waters and I have no more left to shed for its misery? Will you..." He mumbled something, but it was lost in the patter of the rain.
