Happy Bhakti Day

Unbreakable,
O Lord,
Is the love
That binds me
to You:
Like a diamond,
It breaks the hammer
that strikes it.

- Mirabai

To love another person is to see the face of God.

- Les Miserables

'May I always have unswerving attachment to You!'
- (Visnu Purana)

'Oh Arunachala! as soon as Thou didst claim me,
my body and soul were thine.
What else can I desire?
Thou art both merit and demerit,
Oh my Life! I cannot think of these apart from Thee.
Do as Thou wilt then, my Beloved,
but grant me only ever increasing love for Thy Feet!'


(from Bhagavan's 'Necklet of Nine Gems' - Collected Works of Ramana Maharshi; Rider; 1975)
