Thought
Simple rustic shepherd’s heart
From far laid back and gruff
A closer look saw love impart
Below the skin as finer stuff
Behold marvellous a wonder
Stainless bright star’s appeal
Forever protected by Rama
Renunciation’s burning zeal
Words simple, soothing sweet
Beneath hardened outer shell
Laid his life at master’s feet
Unmoved by any order’s bell
No readings to clutter mind
Untouched by markets that divert
Knowledge was of deeper kind
No heed for food or cloth comfort
In this way from world detached
Communion unbroken with God
In meditative state unmatched
Attitudes still profound and broad
Prayer
Lord of universe I fervently call upon thee with mind saturated with love. I pray not for the morrow and its needs, but ever fill my mind with thee. Grant that it may not be diverted by what others think or say, but may it take me to thy divine and restful haven.
