Cosmic Dance Quotes

“Breathing is our participation with the cosmic dance. When our breath is in harmony, cosmos nourishes us in every sense.”

“O Lord Shiva, Eternal dancer of the endless night, Whose steps create the stars, Whose rhythm shapes the flow of time, In Your divine motion, the cosmos is born, And in Your stillness, the universe dissolves. You are the flame that never flickers, The silence behind every sound, The breath within all living beings, The boundless sky where consciousness awakens. Your matted locks cradle the sacred river, Your crescent moon glows with timeless wisdom, Your third eye holds the fire of truth, Burning away illusion and revealing the One. O Mahadeva, In Your dance we find creation, In Your grace we find liberation, In Your presence we find peace. Let Your cosmic rhythm flow through our hearts, Let Your light rise within our minds, Let Your love guide our every step, Until we become one with Your eternal consciousness. Har Har Mahadev. Om Namah Shivaya.”

“When we are alone on a starlit night; when by chance we see the migrating birds in autumn descending on a grove of junipers to rest and eat; when we see children in a moment when they are really children; when we know love in our own hearts; or when, like the Japanese poet Bashō we hear an old frog land in a quiet pond with a solitary splash—at such times the awakening, the turning inside out of all values, the “newness,” the emptiness and the purity of vision that make themselves evident, provide a glimpse of the cosmic dance.For the world and time are the dance of the Lord in emptiness. The silence of the spheres is the music of a wedding feast. The more we persist in misunderstanding the phenomena of life, the more we analyze them out into strange finalities and complex purposes of our own, the more we involve ourselves in sadness, absurdity and despair. But it does not matter much, because no despair of ours can alter the reality of things, or stain the joy of the cosmic dance which is always there. Indeed, we are in the midst of it, and it is in the midst of us, for it beats in our very blood, whether we want it to or not.”
