Spirituality means love in action. It means enjoying our spritiual riches and sharing them with all we meet. We can learn to balance our spiritual practices with our worldly responsibilities, enjoying the fruits within ourselves and sharing our gifts with humanity.
- Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj
Houses warming up their backs suddenly cackled
How the city grew crude !
Then the darkness swallowed a ruby.
Factories in their gowns of stone
Sank deep in thought, lighting their cigars
Then
They all returned with their sodden shirts
Flung across their shoulders,
To their hovels.
"What happened, Sundari?" asks a harlot
"Don't burn the incense today, Nehru's gone !"
Answers the other.
"Really? O.K. then we'll take a night off !!"
The world that bears a burden
Relaxes awful, silent.
Man pushing a handcart with a paper lantern
I stop him and ask,
"Why carry the light now, mate?"
"Why mister !
It's pitch dark ahead" he said.
This is the story of the day Nehru died
This is the story of the day Nehru died.
