He transformed me

This poem is dedicated to my spiritual master H. H. Sri Sri Ravishankar ji. I am eternally grateful to him for bringing me closer to the divine by bringing me on the spiritual path. He transformed me!

O Master! With thy grace and brilliance

This life has been illuminated.

Pulling me out of this life of convenience

And now lost in divine, I am so intoxicated.

All along I had been living in delusion

You awakened my heart to the love and light

And disentangled me from my self-illusion

Rescuing me from the web of hatred and spite.

O Master! Thy secrets of love and detachment

Irradiated me with a steady glow of happiness

Freeing me from the worldly entrapments

And the unreal phantoms of distress.

Igniting the spark of knowledge and wisdom

You led me from the material to the divine.

And now I blissfully dance in the new-found freedom

Basked in the glory of that celestial shine!
