Day 13 A to Z Challenge 2015 - Minds
Dashrath's mind in despair and turmoil
Kaushalya's in shock
Lakshman's rage shook the soil
But Rama was stoic like a rock
Vishnu Lakshmi with a knowing nod
Prepared to leave together
King's action to people felt roughshod
But the divine plan was now or never
Dashrath was torn between queen and son. Unable to displease one he seals the fate of his son and signals the end for himself. A powerful king was brought to his knees by the selfish motives of another.
Kaushalya is in a state of shock. Having lost the king already many years ago to Kaikeyi, she is unprepared to lose her son as well. She begs Rama not to go or to take her with him. For the first time Rama sees Kaushalya lose her composure.
Lakshman, Rama's younger half brother and Queen Sumitra's son is well known for his fiery temper. Lakshman is devoted to Rama and any injustice towards him Lakshman cannot bear. Without Rama Lakshman cannot survive. He was born to be at Rama's side
What might seem like tragic events to mere mortals are part of God and Goddess' great plan. Karma and many destinies are woven into these seemingly sad and unnecessary events.
Re-iterating my statement from my J post, the cosmos is like a musical orchestra and each note finely tuned to create the perfect melody. Each event has its moment in time and space. There are no coincidences and things do not occur by chance.
How are events connected, how are karma and destinies entwined? Will be brought by the letter N tomorrow.
Love is in the air. When events take place in our life that are difficult or that we feel are unwanted, may we remember that we are all part of a divine plan and that each of us have a part to play in karmic destinies.

The Ramayana is a historical chronicle of events during the life of Lord Rama in an ancient time in a land called Bharatvarsh a part of which is now modern day India.
This year's theme was given to me through meditation. But more than just a theme I was also asked to write this from the perspective of Divine love and not just a recounting of the events as they took place. Hence the essence of my posts is "Love is in the air".
The individual theme and tone of my verses are also given to me. And I try to convey what Spirit wants to say through my poetry and prose. In essence, I only transcribe what is given to me, the author of these posts is my soul, the Universe, God and Goddess.
Warm Regards

I like Lakshmana's character a lot. How unselfish he is and how much he loves Rama! His anger explains it all :)

Timing is everything .. like those musical notes, blended in perfect harmony. Thank you Suzy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. There are no coincidences, and every action has some effect somewhere.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree, everything is connected with Karma. Whatever goes out in the cosmic world comes back.
ReplyDeleteenjoyed your post - and enjoying the A-Z Challenge. Mine today is M is for.... Moorland Mousie, Exmoor Ponies (and I sneaked Ross Poldark in LOL) http://leaningonthegate.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/m-is-for.html
ReplyDeletethe ripples of this action caused so many events. But I believe that was all devised and written beforehand. Another beautiful post Suzy. I loved the poem.
ReplyDeleteLord Rama had wonderful brothers, Laxman accompanied him and Sita to the jungle and Bharat kept Rama's wooden slippers As a symbol, until he returned. So much love and devotion.
ReplyDeleteI sternly believe on destiny. There is nothing as coincidence. We the silly minds think that it is a mere coincidence. Superb as usual.
ReplyDeleteKeen to know about Karma and destinies! Looking forward to the N post, tomorrow :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always. Dashrath was not able to see the divine plan but I am Rama must have known. :)
ReplyDeleteThe sequence of events on the great timeline is a matter of actions and consequences. It's often quite amazing how things interconnect and eventually turn out.
