Messages on Tagore-songs began from number 201 dated 6 Feb. 2011 as tributes to the Sage-Poet on his 150th Birth Anniversary (he was born in 1861). It was to continue only up to Message 210. But demands started pouring in and thus the messages on Tagore continued unabated. Now, time has come to discontinue this process so that a new phenomenon may commence from the next message 251. We therefore conclude Tagore song-phenomenon with these two profound 'Brahma Sangeet' --- invocation of a dimension of Awareness Holistic, transcending beyond the contents, which constitute our limited and divisive consciousness.

May the bondage of and the dependency on attachment & its consequent fear as also the shallowness arising there-from be ended for freedom from agitation and anxiety. May there be an ushering of silence in the dimension of doubtlessness. May life awake beyond the flickering myth called mind. Let the dazzling light of the Omnipotent dispel the obscurity of the corridor of opposites wherein the little 'I' remain confused endlessly.

May all the dullness of the inert 'I-ness' die instantly in the smile of Life to transform all sorrow into joyful existence. May Intelligence awake with the dissolution of the feeble mind and its endless fragmentation.

May the shackles of selfishness be broken and love & life be rejuvenated --- may the wounded and frightened mind be enriched by the Grace immeasurable.

 

    II - Bhoy Hote Taubo Abhoymaajhey Nutauno Jaunomo Daao Hey.

Deenota Hote Aukkhoy Dhauney, Saungshoy Hote Satyo Saudoney,

Jaurotaa Hotey Nobino Jiboney Nutauno Jaunomo Daao Hey.

Aamaar Ichchha Hoitey, Probhu, Tomaar Ichchaa Maajhey ---

Aamaar Swartho Hoitey, Probhu, Taubo Mongolo Kaajey ---

Aunek Hoitey Ayaker Dorey, Sukh Dukh Hotey Shanti Krorey ---

Aamaa Hotey, Naath, Tomaatey Morey Nutauno Jaunomo Daao Hey.

 

Let there be a rebirth by ushering in the domain of fearlessness from fearfulness, in the domain of richness of 'me-less-ness' from the poverty of 'me-ness', in the domain of 'what is'  from 'what should be', in the domain of liveliness from laziness.

Let the desires dissolve in the dance of divinity, let the self-centered compulsions vanish in the selfless constructions all around, let the fragmentations of division merge in the fullness of Oneness, let the dualities of pleasure and pain disappear in the uniqueness of peace, let the burden of 'I-ness' evaporate in the bliss of 'no-I'. Let such re-births happen again and again.

 

Epilogue:

1) Let us meditate on the following piece of Swadhyay from a disciple-ship process: ---- 

When there is no waiting for anything

When time is not unidirectional

When emptiness is not the absence of objects

When Life is not the interval between the first breath and the last

When seeking ends

When desires drop

When actions are not done, but happen

When the mind is not in the constant turmoil of thought

When there are no reactions to results

Merely responses to events –

When there are no expectations of any kind

When things that happen are not seen as ‘good’ or ‘bad’

Perhaps there is harmony,

Perhaps there is Living

2) Sab Te Laghutai Bhali, Loghuta Te Sab Hoye.

   Jas Dutia ko Chandramaa, Sees Nawai Sab Koye.

To be in humility is to be available to adoration. Everyone salutes

the crescent moon on Shiva's head as also the crescent moon of Eid festivity.

 

Jai Brahma-Sangeet
