So beautiful! Ani Palchen liked to read her poetry out loud for us. I can just hear her reading this. I’m overjoyed that she is now with Guru and Consort.
I so love this poem. I never knew Ani-La was a poet. Would love to read more if they are available to be shared. Even in her new life she leaves us with these gems to brighten our hearts and minds. Thank you Ani-La. I rejoice in you. You are an inspiration for me.
Exquisite in its sacred expression. I pray that we each and all rest our minds in such extraordinary faith and devotion.
Oh. That’s lovely.
