Offering

In the temple’s quiet sanctum, you bring,

Flowers, fruits, and gifts, other offerings..

But pause and think, what makes them rare?

And what part of these is truly your share?

.

You believe the divine relishes your prayers,

The fruits and flowers, laid with tender cares…

Yet remember, these offerings you have torn,

From nature’s cradle, where they were born…

.

Instead, turn within, where true treasures lie,

The blossoms of consciousness, let them fly…

Offer your love, the purest thing you hold,

An offering more precious than silver or gold…

.

Share this love, as Prasadam, or potion sweet,

With friends and family, let your hearts meet…

In this true worship, find grace and peace,

For in the love’s embrace, our souls release…

.
