Just before you sleep
Anaagatayam Nidrayam Pranashte Bahya Gochare|
Savastha Manasa Gamya Para Devi Prakashate||
Just at the moment when you are slipping into sleep and your mind is shutting off its association with the external sense objects just as the eyes close, and it is yet to fully fall asleep, take your attention to the awareness that is present in the intervening period of transition. The Supreme Goddess shines there. (Pix. and text: Swahilya Shambhavi. Pix. A dusk-time view of a minaret in the distance on a Chennai evening.)
