27 C C I CHAMBERS CHURCHGATE BOMBAY-20 PHONE 293782

प्यारी कुसुम,
प्रेम। बांसुरी हो किसी की -- गीत उस एक के ही हैं।

दियें हो किसी के -- ज्योति उस की एक ही है।

इसलिए बांस की पोंगरियों को भूल -- और स्मरण रख पार के संगीत को ही।

मिट्टी के दियों को विस्मरण कर -- और ध्यान दे सदा उस ज्योतिर्मय पर ही।

फिर तुझे पक्षियों के गीतों में भी श्री भगवद् गीता सुनाई पड़ेगी।

और भोर के स्वरों में भी उपनिषद् के महावाक्य ध्वनित होते दिखाई पड़ेंगे।

फिर तू आकाश में पायेगी उसका ही विस्तार।

और पृथ्वी पर ही उसके ही पद चिह्न।

कण-कण में उसकी ही छवि।

और क्षण-क्षण में उसके ही हस्ताक्षर।

बस माध्यमों को भूल।

उपकरणों को ध्यान से हटा।

और फिर निराकार से आकारों की झीनी सी ओट अनायास ही गिर जाती है।

रजनीश के प्रणाम

२५/२/१९७१
