Prayer

I walk each day
With my two feet
Left and rightImage result for two feet walking images
Entrapped in notions
Of right and wrong
Good and bad
Like and dislike
Fame and shame
Each step entraps me
Once more in duality

I seek my Lord
The wind of Your Grace
Wings of love and faith
To transcend and smile
And be at once
In this world
And yet
Above it all
In the soulful space
Of eternal stillness.

Sri Krishna Sharanam Mama

  1. Oh thank you! and I adore this. I am so happy you were inspired by his words. I guess that is what makes a wonderful teacher, when with simple words he makes us understand so much! Thank you for sharing this and mentioning me. I just pointed the finger. Kenza.

  3. A beautiful recognition of the human condition…our feet upon the path, physically and spiritually…the sense of duality…and yearning to fully experience the One, the One-ness of all things. Thank you, my sweet Krishnapriya for your wonder, and your words. Blessings and much love to you!

    1. You express that yearning so well here – and yet i can see no way to grasp the ungraspable, to know the hitherto unknown, be experience that Oneness – except through a shower of grace! For that i pray on bent knees with folded hands. Many, many hugs and much love to you, my beautiful companion on this journey. πŸ™‚

      1. πŸ˜€ Nah! I wanted to get some plants for the terrace garden we have. And there’s a nursery very close to where I love maintained by the Association of People with Disability! I was lured by the bountiful nursery they have and couldn’t help from getting a dozen saplings!

        I have written the next part and I’ll post it soon πŸ˜€
