In Sanskrit

In Tibet, the night was cold and she said in Sanskrit:
Over years, in loneliness my heart bled in Sanskrit

All mantras of love have failed in winning her for me
Tell any Tantras to take me ahead in Sanskrit

Behind curtains of temple there was a paradise
Night was pleasant ride, though she spoke in bed in Sanskrit

The awesome civilization left us drowned in thoughts
In Hindu and Buddhist books, how we fled in Sanskrit!

In snowfall, my near death feelings craved for surpassing
How to ask fairies, "Is anyone red?", in Sanskrit?

Morning welcoming the Sun and evening fire blowings
I want to read my faith and others' dread in Sanskrit

Poetic Goddess

Poetic Goddess
Forget me not, forgive me  must naivete, 
Poetry flows from the white rivers of my heart,
You are my moondust, write soul songs,
Thousand suns glitter, bloom, la, la  
You make me bloom, lift from the gloom
You are a nightingale. 
Yay, ye  Born with the poetic tongue.  
You are an eternal poetic fountain
Yay, you may write poetry on 
thousand more blue moon nights.
Land of the light beckons,
Fall among the stars,
Covered in moondust,
Reborn childhood,
Thousand  reincarnations,
This Devi- Bhakth, virtuous, innocent,
Material desires ye, dust,
Soul eternal, Childhood immortal.

 Dr. Jose Manimala PhD, Pala, India.

The Matter of Matter, Nama-Rupa of Sanskrit

I
The Greek origins of our word for "matter," is the same for "measure" and MEASURING, as well as a few other terms that carry surprises.

First, however, there is no separate word for matter in Sanskrit, or broadly Hindu VEDANTA Philosophy. Indians and Hindus use a joint term, NAMA-RUPA or simply NAMARUPA: "name and form." As a young Hindu child in South Africa  - of all places - I knew this. It was the term that stood for all REALITY - a combination of names and forms.

II
The surprises are for MATTER, its Greek  origins also connect with MAYA or "illusory reality." Maya also includes the individual "ego-identity," as Indian philosophy generally sees "ego" as a temporary identity that is fluid and transient. Like an iceberg floating in an ocean, will not be a separate form of water for long.

Matter is also connected with the words METER or "metre" and MATER for mother.

Two Minutes of Fame

To earn two minutes of maiden fame,
What not a man would that to mind came!
Tear all dress, smash his pot,
And do things he should not,
E'en riding jackass seems fairest game.

Sanskrit On the Sea

The sun wrote me a letter
in sanskrit on the sea
and shall I tell you what that secret sunlight said to me?
iit said forget about the past   the love is real
the pain wont last
the tide is turning
changing fast
and whats to be will be.
