Ra Divikar's Name

Why I am called Ra Divakar:

 

Look Inside for That Which you Seek! (a self reminder)

I've been looking for a long, long time,
for this thing called love,
I’ve ridden comets across the sky,
and I’ve looked below and above.
... Then one day I looked inside myself,
and this is what I found,
A golden sun residing there,
beaming forth God’s light and sound.

~ Rumi

 

Ra is the name of the Egyptian Sun God. While Divikar is Sanskrit for illumination or sunshine given me by Swami Vishnu Devananda upon completion of Yoga Teachers' Training Paradise Island, Nassau, Bahamas.
