bhakti_lata Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 My dear fellow Vaishnavas, Please accept my humble obeisences. I am new to this forum. I would like to post on this forum some of my devotional poems which I write as my spiritual master has ordered me to dove-tail my writing skills in the service of Krishna. Here's my humble attempt to express my devotional feelings in poetry. <font color="blue"> * lost soul * So lost i was in worldly matters I looked for diamonds amidst the trashes. So lost i was in chasing illusion I got entangled in webs of confusion. Entangled i was yet thought i was free I had chained my soul only my senses were free. When senses were pleased i thought it was 'joy' Little did i know that it was all maya's ploy. Obeisences to my guru who opened my eyes Who burnt my ignorance and showed me light. Now that i have found my soul's lost place. I'm no more in a rush, and no more in a chase. Tears of gratitude wash down my face As i realize oh Lord! Your Infinite Grace. bhakti~lata 8 Aug 2003 </font color> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhakti_lata Posted November 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 Thank you all for appreciating the poem. It is such a pleasure to share the devotional outpourings with fellow Vaishnavas. I want to sincerely thank the people behind this web based forum. You are doing a wonderful service to Krishna in providing a platform for devotees to share our thoughts with each other. My name - Bhakti Lata (as many of you may know) means Creeper Plant (lata) of Loving Devotion (bhakti) which we all devotees aspire to nurture and grow in our hearts. Hare Krishna! bhakti~lata Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 Such a beautiful name, I should also name myself that way. Does any one know any good names you can name yourself to make you remember something about your devotion to krishna? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
