Live Description about the 25th brahmothsavam of Sri Sri Madhurisakhi and Sri Premika varadhan in madhurapuri ashram on radha kalyanam day!
The day began early before dawn
Everywhere on floor kolams drawn
People jostling here and there
Happily chit-chatting about this grand affair
The place well cleaned and well lit
Large & spacious for everyone to stand & sit
With fragrant flowers hanging from the ceiling
The hall instilled a heavenly feeling
Red green yellow gold and blue
Women dressed in all ways they could do
Men in pure spotless white
Their dhothies shimmering bold and bright
Children running around everywhere
Picking up sweets and fighting for their share
All beautiful songs well-tuned and well sung
Reverberated divinity within the old and young
Harmonica dhol tumburu and taal
Rised the spirit of not one but all
No one can help, but clap their heart out
Their spirits rised like a water from a spout
Everyone eagerly awaiting the moment
When they could see the couple and comment
Alas! the screen opened to reveal
The cosmic couple, with a Godly appeal
Adorned with extravagance and grace
Ready to shower upon us their grace
Of their gorgeousness every-time i say,
Not worldly word comes my way!
Its not just an usual human wedding drama
But the reunion of jeevan with paramathma
Its the wedding of the courage & the compassion
When worldliness is washed away by selfless passion
Everyone gathered there were the couple’s kin
Deep inside their soul and not just the skin
With all their sorrow and sins supressed
They come here not to bless but get blessed
Work promotion, childbirth, wealth
Prosperity, peace and good health
Divinity, spiritualism and meditation
Contentment bhakthi and liberation
Anything worldly and heavenly, we wish
Gets fulfilled at once within a swish!
For more than a quarter century now,
Every year this wedding is a huge hit anyhow!
Sitting enthralled amidst the crowd what do i ask for?
Just to attend this holy extravaganza every year,what else more!!
