Student's gratitude

Swamiji

Man of wisdom, strength and high integrity
Compassion reflected through eyes friendly
Consciously choosing Dharma rather than drama
Helping others reducing inner strife
What a beautiful worthwhile life.

With patience, humor, warm heart and deep insight
You sense our needs, intentions, and struggles right
Reaching out to us inspiring and teaching
The holistic path of yoga and cultures blending
A spiritual man stimulating, enriching, uplifting.

Listening to you with open mind and soul
Learning about life and its spiritual goal
Looking at things from a different point of view
Able to discriminate and learn things new
People, religion, culture and more of me
Learning to listen in silence and just being me.

You have enriched my life in so many ways
Deepened my self knowledge and consciousness raise
Intuition instead of impulses, my mind now clear
Patience, tolerance, discipline and no more fear
To put to practice the best possible way
I wish to strive now day after day.

Swamiji

On the parched garden of my soul
Your rain of wisdom fell gently and sweet;
I had lost the vision of the goal
that's why you and I had to meet
