We all know a blood mother’s most favoured oblation,
It is nothing other than happiness of her children.
Mother Earth’s most favoured oblation also we all know,
It is maintenance of good environment, greenery all around.
How many of you know or pretend as not knowing,
That we have one more mother, THE OTHER MOTHER,
Her name is ‘BHAVANA’, you know her by names
Sensitivity, Imagination, Feeling ,Dream and expectation!
Giving you company, guiding,
ever since you are born, unseen and silent.
Other Mother Bhavana’s dearest oblation is writings,
Ever since your tender finger wrote a first letter she showers blessings
SHE is always helping you in fulfilment of your dreams,
Now it is your turn to repay with sweet oblation,, poems and proses!
* Adi Shankaracharya…
Great philosopher and Sant from India
