Shakti

you are a living force
in my leakng boat
the indivisible energy
in my decaying cell
the changeless truth
of my wandering mind
the deathless being
amidst decaying matter
the silent sea
amidst its roaring waves
the stillness wick
amidst the dancing flames
the empty space
in the filling world
the silent observer
amidst the enacting mind
the constructive force
amidst destructive Shiva
the yang of Tao
the Cosmic energy of Shiva
she is Shivoham Shivoham
of Sankara's Nirvana shatakam
