Soaking in Samsaras

O Most Glorious and Merciful Srila Prabhupada,

we can truly see all the nectar pouring from You, of this there is no doubt
From the left, right, top, bottom, from the inside and even out
It’s like an open spigot gushing endlessly, from an immeasurable spout
The solutions contained in Your eternal instructions are poised to end Mayas drought

Of the parching of the human races, the variegated 400,000 species
Who have been bathing, eating and playing in their own, and others, feces
It is only You, yes You, who have decided to bestow the knowledge of the Rsi’s
And Sri Krsna and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta, to all of us, who partake in unspeakable indecencies

We know You, personally, have been empowered by The Supreme Lord Himself
And also by Srila Bhaktisiddhanta who is overflowing with Spiritual Wealth
How ? You took Srila Bhaktisiddhanta’s words as Your life, soul and heart
Never thinking or speculating for a moment, about a means or a way to depart

Likewise, by Your example, we are attempting to serve You in the utmost totality
And distributing Your Vani to our illusioned siblings, since they have lost their memory
Reintroducing them to their overlooked, blissful, eternal constitutional condition
Of serving Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga, no matter their varnic or asramic position

Yes, this is why we distribute Your Vani in the form of Transcendental Books
Freely to anyone who is interested, and wants to take a look
Knowing that by so doing, You have set the inspirational hook
And gradually, by Your association, they take back their life, of which they have mistook

How ? Just by touching and appreciating Your and Sri Krsna’s unaltered verses
By so doing, they soon will be benefited to no longer take rides in hearses
They eventually will be able to stare death straight in the eye like Dhruva Maharaja
And board Lord Sri Visnu’s or the Visnuduta’s Vaikuntha bound Vimana

Yes, we are beyond satisfied and humbled with this important role you have presented
To introduce our siblings to You and Lord Sri Krsna, and therefore we have never lamented
No, we have no aspiration of ever being worshiped as good as Krsna, The Supreme God
We just want to remain a servant of You and Your real devotees, Srila Prabhupada

Yes, we certainly know that we have zero, absolutely none, no qualifications
Actually in the negative is our character, and its subsequent designation
For all the despicable things we have done before, without any hesitation
But, by Your sweet will, You have given us a chance for re-acclimation

Still, we know we deserve the animal and hellish worlds of existence, for all our past misdeeds
And punishment for them can only be excused by Sri Krsna, our Father, we, His seeds
As His cross checker, You can vouch for us pitiful and materially reckless breeds
So when we are repeatedly born, let us again serve You, Your Devotees and Him, please, please, please

We also know we can never repay you, and so, are indebted for many trillions of lives
Although we will try, and we will try, and we will try, and we will try
we will keep moving on with Your instructions, whether we are praised or scorned
so please be merciful to us to continue this mission, whenever and wherever we are born

Srila Prabhupada, as You well know, Your instructions have infiltrated our shriveled being
We see and hear You in our states of wakefulness, semi-consciousness and dreaming
Anything more we can do for You, please, pile it on our head
Like interacting with more and more and more, of the walking dead

And please allow us to bear the insults and the violence produced, just like Jada Bharata
Like when He was before Bhadra Kali to be sacrificed, and care, He did not
Please allow us to keep focusing on this mission to spread Lord Caitanya’s holy benediction
To all the lost souls sinking in their materially contaminated afflictions

Who else is going to do it ? we look at our surroundings all the time
All we see is the lemmings, not asking questions, standing in a line
So please take them first, we are safe wherever we are
For we know You and Lord Krsna are both very close to us in Your Avataras

This is why we don’t care about when it’s finally our time to leave
we are just trying our level best to pass to everyone else a reprieve
If it is our fate to stay here until the end of the material creation
So be it, our only request is to You, and Lord Caitanya, to have the most sincerest, steadfast dedication

And to be blessed to continue to drench the worlds in His Hari-Nama Sankirtana
Destroying all sinful activities and proclivities, with that indefatigable, Spiritual Bomb
Hydrating and saturating, everyone and everything, that we stumble upon
Inundating the universe in the all-encompassing Love of The Almighty Lord, Sri Gauranga

Long Live Lord Caitanya ! Long Live Lord Nityananda ! Long Live Srila Prabhupada !

All-ways inspired by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada,
a nobody named jason walter

Infinite Glory, Victory and Allegiance to Srila Prabhupada !!!

    Apostrophes are not required when using phases that are familiar to the audience (eg CDs, TVs, etc)
    , but should always be used to denote the possessive, except with pronouns ie his hers ours theirs etc.
    MP3s are like samsaras, in that most readers of this column already know what you are talking about. Therefore the apostrophe can be dropped. As it only. Makes. It. More. Confusing. To. Readers. On. The. Subcontinent. .And possibly elsewhere /everywhere.

    Syntax?

    [webmaster: corrected, thank you prabhu]

      Glad to be of service and I’m really sorry for being so pedantic. I can get a bit carried away at times. But even “mistakes” have their virtues…. for instance if you’re holding a Bhagavad-Gita As It Is in your hand and you’re reading about “the planet of trees”, then you know for sure it’s Prabhupada’s original version!

    I absolutely admire The Complete Works of His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, and I respectfully put down anyone who edits or alters His divine works. They should be left as they are, not anything needed.
    But everyone is allowed a couple of typographical errors as long as the meaning is not misconstrued. Including me?
    हरे कृष्ण
    Ys Bhakta Sam.

    My apologies for offending any one. Nay, shade the poetry nor savage thy musicalty! We shall each express ourselves as seen fit by Our Lord? Prithee ॐ

  4. Sorry to bother you, Prabhu(s), but the photo of Srila Prabhupada should be flipped horizontally.

    Haribol!
