Interpretation
This Universe is Maya -- a frightful illusion
Maya pervades each & every action that happens in the Universe
The entropy in this Universe seems like people dancing in a trance in a village fair
Balls of fire, dances with abnormal energy, deep introspection, meditation -- everything is seen here
Mankutimma, such is the wonder seen in His creation
