Dedicated to Antoinette (Nettie) van Leuween

Dearest friend who continues to live in Spirit and in my heart.

"I have bloomed before in the garden of life,
Even as now!
You, and all these royal ones
- here once more! -
Blossomed fragrantly in lives gone.

All barren trees of future lives
We may choose to adorn anew
With buds of our reincarnated souls!
Erstwhile did we abide in formless form
In Spirit's everlastingness,
And thither do we wend again!"

Raag Miyan Ki Todi
Javed AllahDITTA

Rasa of this Raag
"....with a fair erect body like the white lotus,
and delicate like gleaming dew drops,
Todi holds the veena and
provides fun and frolic to the
ghazelles and deer in the green forest."

Soaring on an Overtone

Sharifah C. Rosso

Inner ear listens to rustlings of quiet stepping breeze,

Speaking to lighted ochre shadowed green leaves,

Watching minuscule Spring drop gently separating,

Dripping, dropping, descending....

Graciously rescinding to absorb itself,

Following path of singularly bladed grass,

Shimmering within its new transparent sheath,

Listening to solitary prayer of sole softly feathered soprano,

Flighting its sacred call for aged oaks and youthful antelopes,

Swirling its flowing fugal form,

Spirling within beaming, gleaming suns.

Memories' hearing disappearing....

Forest grown garden becomes Eternal, below radiating skies,

Time forgotten and unknown within hallowed palaced halls,

Frozen dew liquified, castles' mansions magnified.

Glittering chandeliers cast flames on flickering shadowed walls,

Dancing on the past....

Persian carpeted, wooden carved floors.

Gold brocaded mirrors imaged diamond rays of celestial source,

Vibrant colors conducting harmonies of symphonies orchestrated.

Singing, ringing, reverberating....

Chimed, gonged waves permeating throughout,

Beckoning Earle King's son home,

Following color blue, transmuted to golden-white,

Soaring on fixed overtone.

No fear on this divine flight!

Enter by condensed will into microcosmic atom,

Macrocosmic spheres seen in beauty's innocent ear,

(Spacious verse is this being's universe!)

Silencing, listening, all absorbing....

Focused star appearing, arising from its deepest night,

Harps, flutes, and roaring seas know its form with great delight,

And with opening of heart, universe III unveils,

All accompanying its ascendancy!

Now, this moment suspended,

Never to be repeated, no more returning,

Worlds no longer to be seen,

For the beauty of the rainbow exists within its seas,

Golden wings spread its rays,

Following sung line as perfected tone aligns,

Entering Heaven's worlds, soaring within its regal waves!

Becoming one with the holy Aum,

Onward to the eternal home.

About This Site

July 12, 2011

Upon awakening in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center's recovery room on February 18, 2010, the very dear Dr. Sutha Sachar, M.D. informed me that I had cancer and that the Surgeon had to operate immediately. Intermittently, between and after three subsequent surgeries, she reminded me often of how very lucky I was, and how I should "count my blessings", because many other patients of hers, with much smaller tumors, "had not made it".

I am very deeply grateful for all the efforts made to save my life, and the opportunity to reach ever deepening levels of surrender to Divine Mother, that I might not have otherwise experienced had I not spent the next year and a half following the doctors' protocols.

I am most appreciative to the late Sri Sri Daya Mataji, President and Sanghamata of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, for her daily prayers, blessings, and for an affirmation that she had given me several years earlier, that I inwardly took with me into that first surgical room, and which I repeated frequently during this rather long ordeal: "Beloved Divine Mother, my life is in your hands. Strengthen and sustain me according to Thy will".

On Tuesday, July 12, 2011, after receiving the results from more medical tests and another surgical procedure, the Oncologist told me that I was "disease free", and that I would only have to come in to see him every three months for blood tests and yearly for PET/CT scans. This was such great news!

On the way home from all the doctor appointments that day, I introspected, "Why did God save my life now, in this last stage of my life - once again? I was inwardly prepared to leave. I had surrendered my mortal form to Divine Mother." Yet, she had graced me with another extension.

God spared my life twice before, when I was much younger, so it was more understandable, and just following my second back surgery, when I was graced with an extraordinarily peaceful "near death experience". Now I wondered, "Why did Divine Mother want me to continue in this disabled body at the conclusion of my life, when, I thought, I should be preparing naturally to leave the body"?

Of course, I realize that it would offer an opportunity to deepen my spiritual practice and sadhana. But, I also remembered that many years ago I had shared some of my spiritual poems with a Brother of the Self-Realization Fellowship Order. I could hear his strong voice resounding in my memory with great authority, "Your poems should be published"! I did not pursue publication, however, as I never really felt comfortable promoting my own personal art work or music. It was always an intimate personal divine offering, an outpouring of my heart, or an inspiration from an inner state of worship.

So, when returning home after these doctors' visits, I thought to myself, "All these years I have been helping others to create websites for their work, and perhaps now is the time that I should be creating a website for the work I have already created, and some that I am still envisioning". It then occurred to me after finding out that this tenacious battle with cancer had been won for the time-being, that perhaps now would be a good time to make my poems available, since I have been graced with some extra time in this incarnation.

Having been a trained musician, I have included in the site selections that I have found personally inspiring - some throughout my lifetime. Some of the music compositions I personally have studied and played. Some of the works are precious to me because my teachers have performed them. Therefore, I have included in the site an extensive section under World Music Education which highlights many prominent and eminent master musicians from many cultures with whom I had the privilege of studying with personally or with whom my teachers have studied. Some performance are special because I attended their premieres. Some are simply works that I found so exquisitely beautiful that I wanted to share them. Some are performances by master artists who were personal friends of my beloved Master, Paramahansa Yogananda. Some selections are just so exquisitely beautiful that I simply wanted to share them. I do hope the reader will enjoy the Personal Inspirations and Precious Gems, as well as the wonderful Gamelan sections presented here.

Perhaps one day I will be able to include some of my own renditions of the "Cosmic Chants" by Paramahansa Yogananda, which I have been playing since a child, mostly on harmonium. Since about 2009, I have been playing them on my mother's piano, as my dear sister made it possible for me to once again have the piano. It might be nice, perhaps in the future, to convert some of my Master's degree thesis, "Glass Lights, Reflections and Refractions" work from 16 mm film to digital media, and edit it for inclusion on this site. That work was inspired by St. Teresa of Avila's great masterpiece, "Interior Castle", which very much influenced me in my early years.

Many of the music videos are presented under Youtube, personally offered by the performer or obtained by clicking the share button, which I assume is public domain.

In the future, I hope to include more inspiring short excerpts from other musicians and visual artists which are personally meaningful to me, and work from my sister, teachers, friends, and others that I admire, to compliment this poetical offering. At the end of the site I have included links to other sites that I find inspirational and I hope helpful.

Thank you for visiting. I hope you will enjoy the upcoming new entries, as the site is being modified frequently.

Sincerely,

~ Sharifah Rosso.

A Letter to a Disciple by Paramahansa Yogananda

I cannot tell you how much inspiration the following letter by Paramahansa Yogananda gave me. My forbearance, courage, and inner strength is always increased every time I go into the Self-Realization Fellowship Mother Center Library (in which it is displayed) to read it. In fact, this became my pilgrimage spot during the months and months of chemotherapy and radiation. When I first started the chemotherapy I just could not mentally take in the length of time they said I needed - it just put me in "overload". . . But I learned to repeat Master's words from the letter, "Soon it will be over. It will be behind you." It just gave me the strength to just take one day at a time and you know soon it was over and soon it was behind me.

As time went on certain phrases became more poignant, depending on the circumstances. "Love God more than ever" --- "With kindness to all" or "Boundless Blessings", or just merely, "One in Him" --- each phrase became so very precious to my inner being and state of mind that I decided to share this treasure.

A Letter to a Disciple by Paramahansa Yogananda

June 3^rd, ‘49

Please affirm

“I am healed in the castle of his presence”.

Please do not be discouraged.

- God tested Christ by crucifying the body itself and other great saints with severe maladies. God loves the child He beats or tests most.

God is testing your determination to wholly love Him and work for Him. Soon it will be over. It will be behind you. Love God more than ever with kindness to all ~ ever firm in Him.

With boundless blessings

One in Him

(Paramahansa Yogananda)

"MODIM ANACHNU LACH

For the expanding grandeur of creation
Worlds known and unknown, galaxies beyond galaxies,
Filling us with awe and challenging our imaginations,
Modim Anachnu Lach
For this fragile planet earth, its wonders and surprises,

For human continuity, our common past and future hope,

Not by our words but by our deeds.

Last night I found out that very dear Raena S. Olsen, DO, the wonderful gastroenterologist from Cedars-Sinai, who has been so kind and helpful to me in recovering from the effects of the Colon cancer, will be moving to be with her family on the East Coast. I will miss her so much, and wanted to wish her and her loved ones my heart's good wishes, and gratitude for all of her kind care at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. She will be greatly missed.

THANK YOU, DEAR DR. OLSEN. You will always be remembered, and I will keep you and your loved in my heart and prayers.

With grateful appreciation,

Sharifah

******************************************

July, 12, 2011

I should like to express my sincere appreciation to Sri Daya Mata, the late president of Self-Realization Fellowship who provided personal spiritual support, insight, guidance, and blessings for much of my life and during my Sadhana, even until her passing on November 30, 2010.

It was Sri Daya Mataji who initiated my grandmother, Rosilla Tolles Harris into the path of Kriya Yoga (and I remember so clearly the drive up Mt. Washington Drive that my father made with the whole family in the car to take her for her Kriya Initiation, when I was only a young girl). It was Sri Daya Mataji who led me to our Divine Gurudeva, Paramahansa Yogananda, his sacred teachings, the God-illumined Avatars: Lord Jesus Christ and Bhagavan Sri Krishna, and his enlightened Gurudevas: Mahavatar Babaji, Lahiri Mahasaya, and Swami Sri Yukteswar whose blessings are, indeed, unceasing.

Pronams and gratitude to Sri Mrinalini Mataji, Sri Daya Mataji's successor, and Sri Uma Mataji for their continued prayers and blessings, and to their dear secretaries for sharing with me uplifting insights, thoughts of light and love, and encouragement, especially during my recent hospitalizations and nursing home experiences. I shall always appreciate the support of the many other Nuns and Monks of the SRF Order, whose prayers, guidance, inspirations, and divine friendship have touched my heart and soul for so many years.

Special thanks go to my dear cousin, Sr. Roberta Ann Rosso, CSJ, who although undergoing her own serious health difficulties found time to call me regularly and always kept me in her prayers, as did all my family.

Deep gratitude especially goes to my sister, Susie Rosso Wolf a multi-talented artist, creator of Phoetry, photographer, author of "Wherever The Wind Will Blow It" and "New Prairie Woman" for her love, prayers, support, and encouragement in creating this website. She is such an inspiration fighting her own battles with severe health challenges, and her daily calls during my hospitalizations, in spite of her own difficulties, were so much appreciated. I also value the prayers and good wishes of her husband Sound Engineer Kurt Wolf, and his family. Love and devotion goes to my late elder brother and musician/artist Michael James Rosso and his late wife Anita, their son musician Michael Charles Rosso, and his sweet daughter soon-to-be-nurse Melissa Carpenter. Love and gratitude goes to my dear brother, Daniel King Rosso, his soul-mate Judi, her family, Daniel's son Robert Joseph Rosso, his mother Brenda and wife April, his children, Amy and Nick Johnson and their family, as well as my dear cousins Tamara Deems (a wonderful performing artist in her own right), her sons, and Frank Rosso, Sherry, and their family for their loving prayers and support. I so much appreciated my sister Susie's friends, Margo and Reverend Morehouse, for visiting me in the hospital and the calls prayers, and good wishes of Susie's friends still here in California.

I should like to thank all the physicians who God sent to save my life at Cedar-Sinai Medical Center including: my dear Primary Treating Physician Dr. David S. Silver (who has treated me for several years, who never gave up trying to get the diagnostic tests approved by Work Comp, and who continues to be a shining light in my life); Dr. Glenn A. Marshak who made the actual referral appointment to noble Dr. Sutha Sachar for me and oversaw my subsequent life-saving hospital care all through 2010 - thank you so much, Dr. Marshak. Dr. Sutha Sachar was my "Lady in Shining Armour". She "would not allow my medical care to be compromised by Work Comp", and appealed their denial of cancer detecting tests, which saved my life. I shall never forget her expert help, many kindnesses and support. Special thanks goes to senior Surgeon Brendan Carroll, who performed 4 surgeries and was so generous to accept Medicare as payment in full, should Work Comp decide not to pay for his services. Dedicated Oncologist Dr. Noam Drazin and his excellent nursing staff were the liaisons with the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Center and supervised the various cancer protocols with such kindness and expertise, and he continues to watch over me with such concern. Very kind Dr. Amin Moradhi and his excellent radiation staff were so wonderful. Much appreciation goes to brilliant Dr. Ilana Cass, the wonderful nurses at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Center and all the caring and excellent doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, technicians, and staff at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Imaging Center, 7th and 8th floors and administrative offices. Cedars Sinai Social Worker, Varley Smith, was so very supportive, and provided resource referrals, including a referral to the American Cancer Society that resulted in them providing me with a modest gas card, which helped to contribute to transportation costs for daily treatments at the Infusion Center. Everyone at Cedars Sinai Medical Center was so kind - I am overwhelmed to have been the recipient of such unselfishness and care.

On my "Thank You" note to the Supervisor of Nurses, I wrote, "I feel as though God took a little piece of Heaven and placed it in Cedars Sinai Medical Center, surrounding me with loving, caring Angels".

I very much appreciated the continued service of LivHome Home Health Services, particularly my nurse case manager, Janice Hyneck, R.N., and my three wonderful caregivers, Narine Zalynian, Guadalupe Arragon, and most recently, Sylvia Carrillo Macker.

Of special mention should be Drew Hall, D.C., the Blair Upper Cervical Chiropractor who is so dedicated that he has continued treating me even though Work Comp stopped paying him a few years ago because he knows how much this care helps me, and my Ayurvedic practitioners, Dr. Parla Jayagopal and Susan Baake, R.N., who provided wonderful Ayurvedic guidance, especially during my cancer protocols. (I was one of the very few patients who didn't lose all of my hair during the chemotherapy because of their suggestions.) Also, I very much appreciate the Kangen water delivered during my chemotherapy and continued to the present day by kind and talented Ginger de Paris and her husband Mark Warnoc. All provided loving care - without charge - out of the goodness of their hearts, and I am very grateful to them.

Santa Monica Health Care Center provided special post-surgical care twice, which included a wonderful nursing staff, a very caring activity programs director, excellent physical therapists, wound care, and a really special dietitian who provided me with excellent vegetarian meals. How kind was Administrator Jordanne Shelton to waive my first visit's extra day so my Liv-Home Caregiver could come to take me home on her normal work day. Gratitude to nurses Zeny and Ilena of Highland Home Health who went beyond the call of duty and were so generous with their time and skill.

Special appreciation and acknowledgement goes to dear devotee-friends Viney & Dr. Kusum Sahgal of Noida, India, their sweet relatives Geeta and Ananda Gupta (who helped finance the restoration of my car to driving condition in time to start the months of daily treatments of radiation and chemotherapy), and Nancy Sanford of San Fernando Valley - all who made contributions for my continued medical care this year, and without whose generous gift of this iMac computer (and funds for the needed additional software and hardware) during August of 2010, this site would not be possible.

Much gratitude to Karan Clarke for her generosity and her nephew, computer wizard Michael (Mick) Neal, for their support in getting the data off my 1998 crashed PC so that my poems and other documents could be retrieved from that computer and loaded onto this new iMac successfully from the "Cloud". Without access to those files, I wouldn't have been able to post my poems onto this web site.

I would like to thank especially Probhat and Bella Hazra whose brotherly and sisterly friendship, especially during my first chemotherapy weekends were so much appreciated. Mejda accompanied me to my first two sets long day sessions and I was so grateful to have someone with me. Dear Didi often provided me with encouragement and nutritious home-cooked meals, especially when I was so ill, when they were in town.

I shall never forget the special friendship shown me by SRF Glendale Caring Friends chaired by dear Karan Clarke and Liz Chanaske, Fran de Leon, Drs. Murray and Rosemary Frith (new friends who volunteered to help a stranger), Elizabeth and David Rubinstien, who with glass artist Julie and husband Sri Nagesh, and Susan Baake (all are cherished friends for many years), made it possible for me to get to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center almost on a daily basis for cancer protocols, tests, and surgeries for more than a year.

Much gratitude goes to other devotees from the Pasadena and Glendale Temples who were so supportive, including dear friends Francie Issenman-Brown ( a long-time devotee friend whose helpful calls were much appreciated) and her husband Steve Brown (who sent good thoughts and prayers while patiently allowing her to chat with me on the cell phone during their long trips together), Maryann and Bobby Hart (whose hospital visits and encouragement were much appreciated), Desiree Morales (whose friendship has been most endearing and the visit to the Nursing Home was so thoughtful), Sonia Kumar (who still sends occasionally complimentary Ayurvedic herbs and keeps in touch with many uplifting emails, as well as notices of SRF special events), Linda Simpson (who was so kind to visit me during my hospitalizations at Cedars after my surgeries), Marianne Nikodem (who has remained a dear supportive friend for so many years), Donn Sunderland, Marianne and Raymundo Rios, and Dora Grynwald.

Special acknowledgement goes to my dear neighbor, Ambika Chambers, and her wonderfully talented daughter, artist Laria Saunders, as well as my dear friends Marianne Stall and Lorraine Lawrence (who kept up with me throughout this long ordeal and kept in touch with my sister), and spiritual friends Aurora Nordhausen, Lauretta Daines, Ernestine Tierney, Gloria Tatum, Patrick Mathews, Jackson Mohler, Terry Charles Schermerhorn, and Pierre Debauldt for their prayers and loving support.

I very much appreciate the continued good will and prayers of all the dear souls from the SRF Temples and Centers who have kept me in their meditations, including Dr. Dana Goodrich-Dean of San Diego (a dear devotee friend since the 1970's) and Lorita Whitehead of Canada. I was most touched when Khurshid Jassawala informed me that she had placed my name in Mahavatar Babaji's cave when she was recently there on pilgrimage. So kind of her to remember me to the Great Master. Thanks to all for keeping me in your loving thoughts and prayers.

I'd like to also thank Cristina, William, and Jackson Baretta of Storyville Productions, who have sacrificed to create the documentary video, "The Power of Upper Cervical", out of compassion for those who suffer from upper cervical injuries.

I'd like to express my gratitude to concert pianist and dear devotee friend, Paul Calistus Ashley for his beautiful contributions, including his rendition of the first movement of Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata, pianist Susan Svercek for her encouraging emails, and Elizabeth & pianist-composer David Rubenstein for their special endearing friendship, occasional wonderful meals, and help with driving me to the hospital, also. Great appreciation goes to David Joyce for the music video, "Nature Boy", dedicated to Paramahansa Yogananda. Finally, special thanks goes to Mala Ganguly, North Indian Vocalist, for her many years of inspired performances, personal instruction, friendship, and musical contributions to this site.

All of these wonderful souls were sent by Divine Mother to help me, protect me, guide me, and bless me. Thank you, each one of you, for being such willing and kind instruments of the Divine. Without you all, I wouldn't be here, so this site is dedicated to each and every one of you kind friends, dear treasured souls who helped to make it possible for "Poems by a Devotee" to be created.

God bless you always.

~ Sharifah Rosso

GEORGE BIZET - PEARL FISHERS DUET

Les Pecheurs de Perles

"Au Fond du Temple Saint"

Opera set in Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon)

Sung by Enrico Caruso and Mario Ancona

Saint Kabir - "Maati Kahe Kumhar Se"

Sung by Savitri Saverni

Kabir very casually speaks about death, a door step to the Beloved. He say’s we are all newly wedded brides, our life is a preparation for honeymoon night. The secret of this union can only be tasted and be spoken about after death, not in this life.

Maati Kahey Kumhar Se

"Too Kyaa Raundey Mohey! Aik Din Aisaa Aaiga, Main Raundoongi Tohey!!"

Earthen mix admonishes the Potter, "How you are mixing me now, wait till the day come, I will mix you well in me at the end of your life!!"

Maati Ka Shareer, Maati Ka Bartaan Nekki Kar, Bhalaa Kar; Har Bartaan Main Paap Punya Aur Sirr Pey Ley.

Body made of clay, vessel made of clay. So earn good, do good; Each vessel carry vice and virtues within, celebrate all by taking upon your head.

The song begins from here:

Bhalaa Hua Meri Mataki Phooti Rey, Main To Paania Bharan Se Chchooti Rey!

Ah sweet delight! Now my clay jar has shattered, Finally I am free from this water filling business!

Burraa Jo Deykhann Main Chaala, Burraa Na Miliyaa Koey, Jo Dil Khojja Aapana, Mujhasa Burraa Na Koey!

I went in search of faulty ones, no one my search found, The moment I looked at my own heart, none is more faulty than me.

Yeh to Ghaar Hai Prem Kaa, Khallaa Ka Ghaar Naay, Sees Uttaarey Bhuheen Dharey, Taab Baithey Ghaar Maay!

Beware! This is the abode of Pure Love, Nothing to do with name and forms, Enter here humbled with your head bowed, Only then you may take your seat here.

Hamman Hain Ishq Mastaana, Hamman Ko Hoshiyari Kya, Raheyn Aazad Yaa Jaagasey, Hamman Duniyan Se Yaaree Kya!

I'm the love intoxicated one, what am I to do with being sober? I'm released from every bond, What am I to do with friendship with the world?

Kahanna Thaa So Kaah Diyaa, Aab Kuchch Kaaha Naa Jaaye, Aik Gayaa So Bahh Rahaa, Dariya Lahher Sammaey!

I’ve said all that is ever to be said, now I don’t even have words to say! The one who has gone, is now going forever, River merging into Ocean.

Laalee Merrey Laal Kee, Jitta Dekhoon Titt Laal, Laalee Dekhaan Main Gayi, Main Bhee Ho Gayee Laal!

Crimson is the color of my beloved, whosesoever I turn I see the same When I went to see my beloved, I’ve also dyed myself into that!

Haanss Haanss Kunth Naa Payaa, Jinn Paaya Tin Royaa, Jinn Paaya, Mauula Paaya, Allaah Paaya, Haanss Haanss Kunth Naa Payaa, Jinn Paaya Tin Royaa, Haanssi Kheli Piyaa Miley, Kaun Suhaagan Hoey!

Accompanied with ease – none have found the secret of heart, Those who have found - weep in ecstasy! They have found the Master, they have reached God. After union with beloved, lo! where remains the lover?

Jako rakhe Saaeeyan, Mar sake na koy. Baal na baanka kar sake, Jo jag vairi hoy.

The one who's Protector is God, no one can kill him. Not a single hair can be touched, Even if the whole world were to be his enemy.

Prem Naa Baati Uupajey, Prem Naa Haath Bikaaey, Raaja Parrajaa Hee Hojey, Seess Diyey lei Jaaye!

Burning candle or incense will not get you His Love, Love is not a subject of trade. King or beggar who so ever you may be, Pawn your head and take it!

Kabiraa Bhaatee Kallaal Ki, Bahhutak Baitthey Aaye, Sirr Saunppey Soyyee Piyyey, Naahi To Piyyaa Naa Jaaye!

Kabir says this world is like a wine shop, many have come and gone. Those who bargained their head could only drink here, The rest left without having a single sip!

Dukkhiyaa Saab Sansaar Haai, Khaaye Aaur Soye, Sukkhiyaa Daas Kabeer Haai, Jaage Aaur Roaye!

Unhappy are all in this world, all they do is eat and sleep, Happy is the servant Kabir, yet he awakes (awaiting his beloved) and weeps (in grief of separation).

Jo Kachchu Kiyaa Woh Tum Kiyaa, Main Kachchu Kiyaa Naay, Kahhon Kahheen Jo Main Kiya, Tum Hee They Mujjh Maai!

Whatever is done, done by You; I’ve done nothing. If I say I did it, its only You Who is saying in me.

Bhalaa Hua Meri Mataki Phooti Rey, Main To Paania Bharan Se Chchooti Rey!

Ah sweet delight! Now my clay jar has shattered, Finally I am free from this water filling business!
