Thread of the holy name

Meshed in my short sightedness
Influenced by expectations
Lamentations of ignorance
a thread of sanity holding me
the thread of the holy names
Hope binds this thread to me
Hope that this thread will lead
to that world of Krishna prema...

trinad api sunicena

taror api sahishnuna

amanina manadena

kirtaniyah sada harihi

"One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige, and should be ready to offer all respect to others. In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly."


Chant.Chant.Chant.
