Shot this while passing through a small town some where in Rajasthan, India. The sun was beating down real hard and yet life was going on as usual. We had hired a car with a driver to take us around the major cities of Rajasthan, so we passed through many small towns and villages.

 

Parting Words by Rabindranath Tagore

 

When I go from hence

let this be my parting word,

that what I have seen is unsurpassable.

 

I have tasted of the hidden honey of this lotus

that expands on the ocean of light,

and thus am I blessed

---let this be my parting word.

 

In this playhouse of infinite forms

I have had my play

and here have I caught sight of him that is formless.

 

My whole body and my limbs

have thrilled with his touch who is beyond touch;

and if the end comes here, let it come

--let this be my parting word.

"Tired of waiting, you burst your bonds, impatient flowers, before the winter had gone. Glimpses of the unseen comer reached your wayside watch, and you rushed out running and panting, impulsive jasmines, troops of riotous roses.

 

You were the first to march to the breach of death, your clamour of colour and perfume troubled the air. You laughed and pressed and pushed each other, bared your breast and dropped in heaps.

 

The Summer will come in its time, sailing in the flood-tide of the south wind. But you never counted slow moments to be sure of him. You recklessly spent your all in the road, in the terrible joy of faith.

 

You heard his footsteps from afar, and flung your mantle of death for him to tread upon. Your bonds break even before the rescuer is seen, you make him your own ere he can come and claim you."

 

~ Rabindranath Tagore, 1861-1941 ~

Have you not heard his silent steps?

He comes, comes, ever comes.

Every moment and every age, every day and every

night he comes, comes, ever comes.

Many a song have I sung in many a mood of mind,

but all their notes have always proclaimed,

"He comes, comes, ever comes."

In the fragrant days of sunny April through the forest

path he comes, comes, ever comes.

In the rainy gloom of July nights on the thundering

chariot of clouds he comes, comes, ever comes.

In sorrow after sorrow it is his steps that press upon my heart,

and it is the golden touch of his feet that makes my joy to shine.

— Rabindranath Tagore
