Divine Glory · Sacredness in Time and Season

बृहत्साम तथा साम्नां गायत्री छन्दसामहम् । मासानां मार्गशीर्षोऽहमृतूनां कुसुमाकरः ॥

bṛhatsāma tathā sāmnāṁ gāyatrī chandasām aham, māsānāṁ mārgaśīrṣo'ham ṛtūnāṁ kusumākaraḥ.

Meaning

"Among hymns, I am the Brihat-sama; among meters, I am the Gayatri; among months, I am Margashirsha; among seasons, I am flower-bearing spring."

Explanation

Even something as ordinary as the changing months and seasons carries a quiet echo of the sacred.

Today's Life Lesson

Notice today's season or moment as its own small gift, not just background to your plans.
