Mirabai - April 17, Restorative + Pranayama
This mystic had a passionate, earthy even, relationship with the ineffable.
All I Was Doing Was Breathing
Something has reached out and taken in the beams of
my eyes.
There is a longing, it is for his body, for every hair of
that dark body.
All I was doing was being, and the Dancing Energy
came by my house.
His face looks curiously like the moon, I saw it from
the side, smiling.
My family says: "Don't ever see him again!" And they
imply things in a low voice.
But my eyes have their own life; they laugh at rules,
and know whose they are.
I believe I can bear on my shoulders whatever you
want to say of me.
Mira says: Without the energy that lifts mountains,
how am I to live?
