Hidden Treasures

From many times Gita to read,

New treasures uncovered indeed.

 

Janaka on bhakti an authority,

Renounced, but giving duty priority.

 

Spiritual television and travelling in time,

Way to understand the future of mine.

 

Most important how to Krishna to become dear,

Objective of valuable human life made clear.

Giving To Me

Not just for afterlife sitting,

Benefits even before body quitting.

 

Understanding of birth and death presenting,

Neither for the living nor the dead lamenting.

 

Steadiness in pursuit going,

Eagerness to serve growing.

 

When spiritual life following real,

Bliss the ultimate purpose to feel.

Quintessential Righteousness

Shri Krishna, how quintessential dharma can be?

Stealing butter, dancing with gopis does He.

 

Original Veda to world providing,

Then through Vyasadeva the same dividing.

 

Above always duality of world to stay,

As Shri Rama, ideal kingdom to display.

 

Service to Him meaning of dharma real,

Bhakti-yoga secret gradually to reveal.

Anything For His Devotees

Despite having immeasurable strength,

For pleasing devotees to go any length.

 

Sometimes losing at mock fighting,

Defending Satyabhama after flower sighting.

 

Rukmini away from marriage assembly taking,

Back to Dvaraka, His wedded wife making.

 

Whether liberation, all desires or having none,

Worship of Krishna to benefit each and every one.

Conquering Lust

With proper focus holy names to chant,

Then kama sway the individual it can’t.

 

Mahadeva in many ways victory earned,

Living renounced, by him Kamadeva burned.

 

On the glories of Shri Rama always speaking,

Despite marriage, attention on bhakti keeping.

 

Favor of Lord Himself reason most of all,

Same when on us Shiva’s blessings to fall.

Known As Hari

“For face like yours to give,

For that offense I won’t forgive.

 

This curse I place upon you,

That without beloved will be you.

 

Just as my face you did make,

Help from monkeys you’ll have to take,”

 

This curse from Narada Shri Hari accepted,

Path for devotee by Him always protected.

Rukmini Devi Teaching Us

Many lessons from Rukmini to learn,

Like how Shri Krishna’s favor to earn.

 

Vision of the Divine not required,

From hearing alone bhakti inspired.

 

Lord having affection for brahmanas respectable,

Rescuing souls with timing impeccable.

 

With respect towards demigods can behave,

Krishna or His representative coming to save.

God Is Nice

Murder, deceit and vice,

How then God can be nice?

 

Just of temporary body seeing,

No effect on spiritual being.

 

To me always association’s choice giving,

Remembering all, thus most forgiving.

 

When sincere desire for return in me,

Sends guru who from illusion free.

Like Online Shopping

Store sometimes with bargain, a steal,

Customers readily looking for a deal.

 

Like a store with items fully in stock,

Demigods practically everything they’ve got.

 

Friendship not made, not relationship in trust,

Nothing personal, business it is just.

 

Bhakti for those with intelligence more,

Krishna’s pleasure doing everything for.
