Your Shore

Your Shore
dedicated to Radhanath Swami

Your shelter soothes me
moves me
like the moon
on the tides.
Your guidance shines on me
and aligns me
like the sun
on the earth.
Your example
is my compass
my North.
And if one day
alas
I fall away from you
spin away
unalign
Please allow me
one day
to wash upon your shore
once more.

Hare Krsna Bhakti Lata Mataji!!

I'm here in Greece w/ very little devotee association and trying to share Krsna w/ the locals... Your postings are very inspiring and well written. I just had a son so I'm taking special encouragement from you, a gurukuli, that my son will also grow up to be devoted to Krsna in a substantial way. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for sharing your heart and experiences. Often, your postings are just so much more accessible then the scriptures. The movements of a devotee's mind and heart. Hari Hari! ys Tara das

This is one of the most beautiful comments and encouragement to continue writing that I have ever received. Thank you, Tara das.


To write is to dare the soul. So write.
