My Poems
Offering Vyasa Puja 2024 Anandamayi Dasi, Poland
From the days of my life...
I have chosen those that give peace of mind
Days that rise above all the mediocrity of a flat life
Times, that give/spread your sublime association
Why is it so difficult to attain this state?
So difficult to break through the expectations wall
I wander somewhere dragged by the immensity of hope
Though they do not give long awaited reality, they are...
I would so much like to give you the best of me
To make the best of everything, create
Offered opportunities, quickly taken away
A confusing process does not bode well
The approved goal seems unattainable
Will time break me like a gale breaks a tree?
So much joy - suffering already behind
Do I consist only of this happy sadness?
My soul tears into the light that thou art
My rivals still successfully drag me away
Will our roles forever deprive me of lack?
Shall I hope for soul happiness in this life?
I pour out endless streams of sorrow before thee
I am not a good companion in a grief
Solitary confinement is the place, conscience
The straitjacket is the only defense
I am coming with hopes before thy feet
I humble myself, crawling into your grace
Torrents of tears continually flood my world
Where is the end of wandering miserable journey?
Wail have already gathered in heart by turns
Taken away the riches of my being
Know the consequences of these thefts
The nobility of intentions transformed into vanity
The truth is coming out of my heart constantly
I want to break this burden, though I still cannot
Thy inspiration is comforting, though still scarce
In the flooded world of my life, I dwell
Yet, I am to be strong in the strength of your guidance
The time changes everything, though not always
What do I hope for? What do I expect?
Instead each step becomes more and more heavy
I stop looking for feelings in my heart
Too shallow energies tug at my soul
Does this world only destroy, only take away?
Trying to serve you, I do what I can
I still see pure souls being trampled on here
So, I admire your calmness and composure
I am eager to catch up with your great qualities
Your lotus feet - only hope, only treasure
I Pray for support for you... and for me
Fervent and Deep Desire Prayer
Nothing good in the depths of my soul anymore
Here only sacrifice, I sacrifice my soul
Following you, dedicated to action
Consecrated I immerse myself in your guidance
I can't give more, I don't have more
Accept my life, accept my soul...
I want to praise thee in the rapture of my soul
I want to please you in the vastness of devotion
Accept my sacrifices, but not my penance
My gifts abound in the riches of spirituality
I stretch forth my hands full of divine love
I wrap my soul in the features of thy greatness
I will remain in this state of your immersion
All you are today and all you will remain....
Deliberate . . .
Between the earth and the space
Between the spirit and matter
Your devotees have a peaceful place
Wherefrom this idea manifest
Wherefore this conception came
To bring Absolute Calm, request
Bewildered by external delusion
Disordered by internal desires
Thick baggage, redundant confusion
Unveiled foggily thick deception shade
Exposed multi-colored decks overlays
Form's virtue, personage charm shape
Stays safely, the care of calm glance
Stand firmly, the mold of persistence
Preserved, don't lose it, compact dense
Open the Doors, Assignment gate,
Unseal, the heart to feel to taste
Live wide freedom deliverance made
Who greets the soul's tormented quit?
To whom are those prayers directed
O Lord, vast pleadings, plead for defeat!
Your magnetic admission's, Your intend,
Your amuse, immense sympathy span
Bewitchment's spell reversed to prevent
Dreams, magnificent surrounding's place
Dreams coming, waves endlessness awaiting
Come closer my want, approaching space
Anything possible my Heaven in Heaven
Everything undertakes Divine Felicity Form
Submerge Your subsistence trail, forever
Brilliance, brightness spreading radiance
The joy of glare, the heart's effulgence,
And Lord's company, total flame existence
