<FONT SIZE=3>ROBERT GRAVES is not a major poet, and certainly not a
great poet. He is a minor poet. But in spite of his minor rank he is
a good poet: here he presents up a jewel, a beautiful poem<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">&sup1;</FONT>
both in form and substance. He has indeed succeeded, as we shall see,
in removing the veil, the mystic golden lid, partially at least and
revealed to our mortal vision a glimpse of light and beauty and
truth, made them delightfully sink into and seep through our
aesthetic sense.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>Like the poet his idol also is of a lower rank or of a
plebeian status. He keeps away from such high gods as Indra and Agni
and Varuna and Mitra: great poets will sing their praises. He will
take care of the lesser ones, those who are moving in the shadow of
the great ones and are hardly noticed. Even in these modern days,
goddess Shitala, the healing goddess of epidemics, lives side by side
with Durga.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>But really it does not matter if the deity is small.
For, if the worship is sincere and the offering pure, they ultimately
reach the Divine. Did not Sri Krishna say in the Gita that
whom-soever you may worship and in whatever way, that in the end'
reaches him? The importance and significance of worship do not depend
upon their size and scale: a little water, a leaf, a flower may more
than do.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>The small gods are small, but do not slight them –
they are powerful. They are powerful because they are deities of the
earth. In fact, like gods and goddesses in heaven, there are gods and
goddesses on earth also. The gods in heaven are high and far away,
but these unobtrusive deities are near to our hearth and home. The
Greeks referred to the Olympian gods, of high caste and rank as it
were, – like Jupiter and Apollo –</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>and to those others who dwelt on the lowly earth and
embraced its water and land, its rivers and trees and fields – the
nymph, the satyr, and Pan and dryad and naiad. What are the powers
and functions of these unearthly beings? They on their part are
guarding the gate to heaven, questioning the pilgrim of their divine
destination. Well, the sentinels have to be appeased first, satisfied
and convinced. Surely the sands burn hotter than the sun!</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>We may ask in this connection which deity does our poet
invoke here, to whom does he raise his offerings, to whom– <I>kasmai
dev<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">Ä</FONT>ya? </I>One need not be startled
at the answer: it is the toadstool. But the mushroom growth assumes a
respectable figure in the guise of its Sanskrit name, <I>chatraka.
</I>Kalidasa did one better. His magic touch gave the insignificant
flora a luminous <I>robe – <FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">ś</FONT>il<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">ī</FONT>ndhra,

</I>The next pertinent question is: why does the poet worship a
toadstool? What is his purpose? Does a toadstool possess any special
power? This leads us to a hidden world, to the 'mysteries' spoken of
by the poet himself.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>In ancient days and in some spiritual practice and
discipline this fungus had a special use for a definite purpose. Its
use produces on one a drowsy effect, perhaps a strong and poisonous
intoxicating effect. What is the final result of this drugging? We
know that in our country among the sadhus and some sects practising
occult science, taking of certain herbal drugs is recommended, even
obligatory. Today Aldous Huxley has taken up the cue, in the most
modern fashion indeed, and prescribed mescalin in the process of Yoga
and spiritual practice. Did the Vedic Rishis see in the same way a
usefulness of Soma, the proverbial creeper secreting the immortal
drink of delight? However, the Tantrik sadhaks hold that particular
soporifics possess the virtue of quieting the external senses and
dulling and deadening the sense organs, and thereby freeing the inner
and subtler consciousness in its play and manifestation.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>Our poet too is saying something in the same line. He is
appealing to the toadstool god to give him the right vision, to take
him to the other shore, to lead him to the presence of the gods in
heaven. Because he is the divine food, its self, the ambrosia. Not
only that: by taking this ambrosia one enjoys, even</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>He begins by speaking of the birth of the gods. Well, a
small truth needs to be revealed at this point. We have spoken of he
lesser and smaller gods. These small gods are shielded and supported,
in fact, by the big gods. This Shilindhra or toadstool has behind him
Dionysus, the delight and loveliness and enjoyment and youth – a
veritable symbol of ecstasy, of earthly ecstasy. That which is nectar
in heaven is presented on earth in drugs and herbal juices.
Shilindhra and ambrosia pertain to the same class.</FONT></P>
<P CLASS="msonormal" ALIGN=JUSTIFY STYLE="text-indent:0.42cm; line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">
<FONT SIZE=3>The birth of Shilindhra resembles the birth of Dionysus.
When King Zeus took the form of thunder and lightning and entered the
womb of Semele, Dionysus was born. Similar is the story of the
appearance of the toadstool, in the midst of rain and thunder and
lightning and on the lap of mother earth. We have already said that
there are two categories of gods or two types of them – one belongs
to heaven and the other to earth. The Vedic Rishis announced that
heaven was our father and earth the <I>mother – daurme pit<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">Ä</FONT>
m<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">Ä</FONT>t<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">Ä</FONT>
prthvimah<FONT FACE="Luxi Serif">ī</FONT>yam. </I>The Vedantins
usually and mainly worship the father, and Tantriks, the mother.
Svarga, Dyaus, is the world of light, and earth or <I>bhu </I>is that
of delight and enjoyment. We have already said that high above, up
there, dwell Apollo and Zeus and Juno, and below here on earth,
Dionysus and Bacchus and Semele and Aphrodite.</FONT></P>

<FONT SIZE=3>However the poet says that as the toadstool is born in
the midst of thunder and lightning, his strength and capacity are of
the nature of thunder – enduring and hard and powerful. Born thus
it spreads everywhere and lasts through all time. From the beginning
of creation this god has sprouted up everywhere, as giver of pleasure
and ecstasy and intoxication. To</FONT></P>

him is to worship earth, to worship Dionysus himself. But one needs
to worship this god in the right way, to give oneself away wholly to
him. Once upon a time the demons for some selfish interest wanted to

depriving them of their power of movement and drowning them into the
ocean. On the contrary, to the devoted which world does he reveal,

It is a journey through pure air and clear light. Conversely the poet
