Way Down Beneath the Ocean


By Srila Jiva Goswami dasa
My body lies under the ocean
Far under the Causal Blue Sea
My body lies under the ocean
Oh send forth my body from me
What is this all about? As each successive material endeavor dashes upon the rocks, you’d think I’d finally give up gladly. I don’t pray for death anymore. […]

To My Godbrother Muktakesa


by Mudakari dasi
In Buffalo, cold New York State,
Your spiritual journey did begin.
You met your transcendental fate
And learned to wheedle, bluff, and pin.

From strip mall, street, and stadium,
From parking lot to prison cell,
You served as via medium
To life beyond material […]
