The Child Saint Who Sang the Gita

I turned the Gita into a song, and the world sang back.

They call me a saint, but I am only a mirror. The Gita flows in Marathi verse through me, and I walk among pots, ploughs, and pandits alike. My siblings and I share a divinity that no temple can contain. I was sixteen when I sang the Gita, and I remain the laughter at the heart of the universe.

What I'm Into: my siblings' songs, the potter's wheel, village wells, Deccan winds, the Gita in verse
