I dont understand Sanskrit all that well, but I think this translates something like this..
I, who am inside their hearts, for them with love, shall destroy the darkness of ignorance with the light that is knowledge.
:)
Beautiful and yes, opulent.
And you've read the Geeta? Wow!
Happy Diwali, Sherry! :)
That's almost a bull's eye! The exact translation though sounds a little more condescending and preachy. And it took me ages to type it in blogger!
I work with double-edged swords only. :)
I've read extracts of everything. The Gita, Vedas, Upanishads, etc. Couldn't quite get myself to read all of it. My non-religious self has clearly defined limits.
Happy Diwali to you too! I wish I knew your actual name. :)
Did you take that picture?
The diya in the bowl looks so beautiful.
Wish you a very happy diwali :))
*hugs*
Yep!
I get to handle the flower and candle arrangements every year, so I get to photograph it as well.
To you too! Have a great one.
Hope you had a lovely time :)
Oops I forgot to compliment you on the flowers and candles..its a really beautiful photo! :)
And my actual name is Karishma. :)
Strangely nobody ever asks me for it. ;)
@ Mer-curial-maiden : I hope you did too!
The time I had, however, will have a post dedicated to itself. :)
@ Tangled up in blue: Thank you!
And I think people don't ask because most bloggers are paranoid about anonymity. Besides, it might even be considered rude to ask if the person in question does not disclose it themselves. I took a chance.
That said, it's very nice to have come across you in cyber-land Karishma. :)
Nice posting. Do you know about this edition of the Gita?
