31.
What holds you back, my dear?
What scares you, my child?
Don’t you know that you have never been
alone and that I shall never leave you alone?
You are my eternal companion,
in life and in death,
and will ever remain so.

32.
Come, my love. The stars have come out
of their hiding and are peeping out at us to
celebrate the joy of our meeting. On this
amavasya night, there is no one to disturb or
distract us. The new moon has provided a
dark blanket to shroud us from evil eyes.
Come, come, my love and free me from the
pangs of unbearable separation.

33.
I was lost in the maze of this world and
had forgotten that You even existed. Now,
suddenly, You have shown up and awaken my
dormant longing. The sweet melody of Your
flute draws me closer and closer unto you and
I long for the moment when I can completely
lose myself in Your Infinite Being.

34.
Coming from far-off kingdoms, you have
descended from your throne and entered my
inner temple. I am filled with joy at your
coming and the fragrance of your body
captures my senses. Your presence has taken
away the pain of my age-old separation and I
now feel ready to serve you for eternity in all
your manifestations.

35.
In the mystical garden of Sa’nor, the
enlightened world,
I have seen You surrounded by innumerable
luminous emanations. They protect Your
garden and carry out Your orders. They travel
far and wide and carry Your love for all
beings. They guide Your loved ones and show
them the path of virtue. You are ever present
with one and all…yet, why do You keep
yourself hidden from all mortal creatures?

36.
You have packed your bags and are
preparing to leave.
My heart says, O, Lord, assure me that you
will regularly visit me.
How will I pass my days without you?
My heart aches at the very thought of your
departure. Go not, my dearest one.
The moment of parting is painful beyond
measure.
At least leave me with a token of Your love so
that I may ceaselessly sing Thy name while
waiting for Your return.

37.
With your benevolent grace and holy
kisses, I have been transported to the
heavenly realms. You have taken away all my
anguish and freed me from the pain of
isolation. Your sweetness pervades my entire
being and I eagerly stand at the door wanting
to pour out the tears of love and quench the
thirst of all seekers.

38.
You have led me to the realm of the infinite
peace where contradictions, paradoxes and
boundaries dissolve and become boundless.
Now I feel Your presence, both within and
without, and find myself on the threshold of
expressed and expressionless.
Why do you hide behind the beauty of your
creations, O Lord?
Allow me, my dearest One, to have a secret
glimpse of You at all times!

39.
I was the most beautiful flower of Your
garden and You adored me, too.
The passerby looked at my exotic colors and
became intoxicated by my fragrance and
some even looked with envious eyes at me.
I felt that I was the most especial creation of
Your world of dreams and would live forever
in shining exquisite beauty. In the final moment
of my trial, you shook me with a mere gentle
stroke of wind and my fragile petals are torn,
destroying my false prestige and now
I understand: Only You exist.
You alone are the lasting beauty and nothing
else compares with Your charms.

40.
In the sea of formlessness and
thoughtlessness, you have given birth to
countless waves and bubbles of varying sizes.
They are all born out of Your unfathomable
quest for expressing Your infinite love.
O, my Divine Mother, I see no beginning or
end to Your infinite journey. Let me
ceaselessly flow with Thy Divine Will and
seek the pleasure of satiating Your infinite
quest.
