Glimpses of Sentiments
WHAT KIND OF RELATIONSHIP IT IS ?
Oh Supporter of the world! When I am alone I talk to you. When I am in a mob, by avoiding you, I get bored. Kindly give me a boon that even in a crowd of devotees, I remain conscious. Kindly give me alertness that towards my duties I remain CONSCIOUS. You kindly shower such blessings that towards even myselfi remain conscious. Oh Lord of Mercy! There is joy in talking with you that you are not existing and yet you are there. Otherwise with whom should I talk ? If you also remain absent before whom should I express my sentiments ? Before whom should I sing devotion from my heart ? Before whom should I draw 'SWASTIKA', an auspicious sign of surrender ? Therefore, I consider, you are always present. But Oh Ocean of Grace ! In talking to you, there is one difficulty. You remain silent and I go on talking. What kind of relationship is it? I have been singing continuously your songs. Even then you do not hear me !
