Honouring our guru
Regina, Saskatchewan
Last night we engaged in a celebratory event, Janmastami, in Regina, until 1:30 AM. After a good rest, I conducted a program to honour our guru, Srila Prabhupada. I had the good fortune to put in 10 kms on the road to a place near Horizon. Here is my offering of devotional sentiment to the guru.
You never did leave us
Your books contain your spirit
Your apparent departure
A myth without merit.
You are alive as ever,
Mortality has no place
For the voice of truth
Within time and space.
Your teachings bear power
Thrusting “real” enjoyment
And tightening controls
To sensual amazement;
They are for all times
Nothing relative
But relevant, teaching
The art that, “we give”.
No truth superior,
Science of the self
Most secret of secrets
Not to stay on ones’ shelf.
To live in this realm
Entities do cry
Deprived of peace
And Maya being dry.
Examining the real / surreal
What to conclude?
That life is constant?
The Force to include?
The cosmic clock ticks
Wearing us away
‘Til we look to sport
With Him and to play.
We thank you for that
All mentioned above.
There is no repay
For this genuine love.
We have you and Him
Making it all whole
Our final exam
Is to reaching this goal.
10.5 KM
