The Lover's Passion ~ Desire (Jalaluddin Rumi)




The Lover's Passion - Desire
by Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi


(original title from Deepak Chopra's CD: 'The Lover's Passion')


A lover knows only humility, he has no choice.
He steals into your alley at night, he has no choice.
He longs to kiss every lock of your hair

Don't fret,
he has no choice.
In his frenzied love for you, 

he longs to break the chains of his imprisonment,
he has no choice.

Music video of The Oath of the Vayuputra

Fans of The Shiva Trilogy who are not yet aware that the third and final book is to be released in two days, you better be aware now!

Yes, on 27 Feb, bookstores in India are releasing The Oath of the Vayuputra. My darling friend and I have ordered it from a friend of a friend in India. Cannot wait to read it!

Meanwhile, please enjoy the music video The Oath of the Vayuputra by Sonu Nigam and Taufiq Qureshi in high definition. It's supercrazily superb!!!



Who's that dude playing Lord Shiva? He might be a good candidate for the action movie, if Hrithik Roshan isn't available. But I hope Roshan is going to play Lord Shiva, with Aishwarya Rai as Lady Sati. I cannot think of another screen couple fair enough to play the Ultimate Couple!

Looking for Your Face (Rumi)



The Dawn by Mahmoud Farshchian

Looking for Your Face

by Mevlana Jallaludin Rumi


From the beginning of my life
I have been looking for your face
but today I have seen it


Today I have seen
the charm, the beauty,
the unfathomable grace
of the face
that I was looking for


Today I have found you
and those who laughed
and scorned me yesterday
are sorry that they were not looking
as I did


I am bewildered by the magnificence
of your beauty
and wish to see you
with a hundred eyes
