Garden: Kal stands at the head...


Kal stands at the head of your bed: Wake up, O my dear Friend! Away from kindly Ram, how can you sleep in peace?

Next: This is the end of a path, but not the end of the garden. Return to the beginning: would you like to follow the FLUTE, or answer the call of the VEENA?

Kal = Kala. This is Time personified, who is also associated with Death and the god Yama.

Ram = Rama. This is an avatar of the god Vishnu whose story is told in the Ramayana.
