Tribute to Mirabai, 14 Feb 2026

"I have no other but Giridhara Gopala..." — Mirabai

Today, as the world celebrates human love, my heart turned toward the ecstatic devotion of Mirabai who had found perfect love, perfect joy, in the complete and only perfect mate -- God. As said by our Guruji (in Man's Eternal Quest):

Why do you waste your time for a little human love, and money, and this and that, when in God you can find everything—all the love that is in the whole world, all the power in creation? But don't seek Him for power; seek Him for love. Then you will discover the chink in His armour. When you give Him your unconditional love, He can no longer refuse you Himself.

I spent some time with my harmonium today, meditating on a melody many of you will recognize: Guruji’s "O Thou King of the Infinite." While the tune is his, the words shifted in my heart into a personal prayer of surrender.

The Lyrics:

O Thou Divine Beloved
I give myself to you
Just you O perfect love
Perfect joy, sole perfect mate
