Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 BUTTERCUP Wild golden amber yellow flowering cup, > From which zealous bees their sweet nectar sip. > The bee's an emblem of the spiritual trip, > The brave effort pilgrim needs to wake up > From sleep, and cease to be a suffering pup, > Sniffing at vain pleasure with his greedy lip, > Licking at each juicy bit. We lose our grip > If ego indulges in such poisoned sup. > > Child Krishna loved golden butter's subtle taste, > Churned from fresh milk for healthy nourishment. > If we wish to be free from soul's detriment, > Then we must churn the mind with all due haste, > Using Self Enquiry's rod; God's instrument, > To save us from life's painful punishment!
