When I wake up each morning,
I find a nice thing to do is pray,
To get upon my knees,
It’s a great way to start the day;
Then throughout the day,
On some mantra I concentrate,
Praying for those around me,
Realizing that everyone is a mate.
“You cannot possibly have a surfeit of prayer." GANDHI.
It's nice to see flowers,
Wafting in the breeze,
Celebrating God's beauty,
As I do when I get on my knees;
Their brightly shining hues,
Every colour of the rainbow,
When I realise their beauty,
All I can say is wow.
“All sentient beings have the seed of the Buddha with them." DALAI LAMA.
Dearest lovely God,
May my life-time goal,
Be to be one with You,
To find my very soul;
A great way to do this is with yoga,
Which helps control the mind,
And then with Your help,,
My soul I am able to find.
"When our inner nature is trully free, we find within ourselves a wealth of treasure; love, joy and peace of mind." TARTHANG TULKU.
I must do my own praying,
No one else can do it for me,
I must do my own meditating,
To better God see;
Self-effort is indespensable,
On the spiritual life path,
There will be many things happen,
But they'll also be many a laugh.
To happily live, always forgive.
