Life is a workshop to prepare ourselves

Prayer of the Day

Prayer from Basavanna Vachana 

 

ಮರ್ತ್ಯಲೋಕವೆಂಬುದು ಕರ್ತರನ ಕಮ್ಮಟವಯ್ಯ
ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಸಲ್ಲುವವರು ಅಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಸಲ್ಲುವರಯ್ಯ
ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಸಲ್ಲದವರು ಅಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಸಲ್ಲರಯ್ಯ ಕೂಡಲಸಂಗಮದೆವ!

Song as Romanized text

 

martyalOkaveMbudu kartarana kammaTavayya
illi salluvavaru alliyU salluvarayya
illi salladavaru alliyU sallarayya kUDalasaMgamadeva!

Meaning of the Prayer Song:


Mortal world is the workshop of the Creator.
Those who are fit here would also be fit there.
Those who are not fit here would also be not fit there.
Oh Lord of Kudala Sangama!

 Notes: 


1. kammaTa - workshop.
2. The life in this world is the gift from God for us.
It is a workshop where we, the souls, get shaped -
matured - to enjoy the Bliss God offers.
If we are able to make best use of this life
to mature ourselves spiritually, we would continue
to make best use of the Bliss even after the life in this
world!
3. c.f. வாய்த்தது நந்தமக்கு ஈதோர் பிறவி மதித்திடுமின் - அப்பர்
