Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
A description of the experience
from Caturvedi no 82 translated by Professor John Stratton Hawley
I saw the dark clouds burst
dark Lord
Saw the clouds
And tumbling down in black and yellow streams
they thicken
Rain and rain two hours long
See -
my eyes see only rain and water
watering the thirsty Earth green.
Me -
my love's in a distant land;
and wet,
I stubbornly stand at the door,
For Hari is indelibly green
Mira's Lord
And he has invited a standing
stubborn love
