I took a little bit of a different spin on my class giving for the Bhagavatam this morning, and I asked our students with the Bhakti Academy to put a very short poem together to express what was the content of the Bhagavatam today. Here are the results, I hope you enjoy them:
Rohan:
His eyes never desired to see anything
For him the lotus feet of Krishna were everything
Amala Harinam:
Let me please the Supreme Lord,
With these senses which are never on board
Devanshi:
24 hours a day Ambarish got
"Krishna!" not even for one second he forgot
Guneev:
Eyes, tongue, and touch involved in service
24 hours a day keeps maya away
And doesn't let you stray which is helping you pray
Dinal:
Where Krishna katha fills heart and ears
He, Hrishikesh, draws near
If you want to train your senses to serve with glee
You must follow the instructions of Rupa Goswami
Himanshu:
Srila Rupa Goswami said accept a spiritual master
So that you can do service by following his footsteps
If you want to worship Krishna follow his devotees
By loving his devotees you can have affection for Krishna
Chanting the names of Krishna engages my ears
Seeing the form of Krishna gives me tears
Maitry:
Always engaged in hearing about Krishna
Who is also known as the lover of Radha
Monil:
Here is Maharaj Ambarish who always lived in bliss
His senses engaged in lord's lotus feet
Visesh:
Riding on forever friend's shoulders
Let him walk
Such is his bond, Ambarish found freedom without clause
To progress in bhakti faster
Take shelter of your spiritual master
Karuna Sindhu:
Ambarish always engaged his mind
Leaving maya always behind
Jai Sri:
Krishna will never disappoint you
You just need to have a devotional view
Shine on the face with the tears in your eyes
Is the sign of pure love of Godhead
