You are everything to me, O my Lord.

Tvam eva sarvam mama Deva Deva

 

You alone are the mother, You alone are the father

You alone are my brother/sister, You alone are my friend and Dearest

You alone are my knowledge and my wealth

You are everything to me, You are my God, O my Lord.

O son of Maharaja Nanda, I am Your eternal servitor, yet somehow or other I have fallen into the ocean of birth and death. Please pick me up from this ocean of death and place me as one of the atoms at Your lotus feet.

 

O my Lord, when will my eyes be decorated with tears of love flowing constantly when I chant Your holy name? When will my voice choke up, and when will the hairs of my body stand on end at the recitation of Your name?

 

O Govinda! Feeling Your separation, I am considering a moment to be like twelve years or more. Tears are flowing from my eyes like torrents of rain, and I am feeling all vacant in the world in Your absence.

 

I know no one but Krsna as my Lord, and He shall remain so even if He handles me roughly by His embrace or makes me brokenhearted by not being present before me. He is completely free to do anything and everything, for He is always my worshipful Lord unconditionally.

...out of the blue for a whole day , and also of this aarati above.....and then you posted the verses from the Shikshashtak.

 

Either observing my musing on the Sikshashtak , the Lord gave you the Buddhi to post it,

OR

knowing that you were going to post it, the Lord gave me an intuitive Buddhi to think about it.

 

He does it all the time. The Prince of Vraj

The eighth verse - i think about it in a very different light and CONTEXT -unlike the highly elevated state in which Lord Chaitanya wrote it.

Of course, if Krshna gets bored with me, He will still be my Lord, but .....

 

Just as an infant needs Mother

and fish needs water,

O my gentle sweetest One, i need YOU

You know this too well

more so than i do

SO YOU WILL NEVER ABANDON ME

An axiom of trust and faith

How can this a selfish desire be ?

Thinking otherwise despite Your repeated assurances

will be an insult to Thee

 

 

 

O Lord of my soul, Who walks every step with me,

Whose Mercy knows no bounds, Who conveys things in most amazing ways,

Who lives in eternity beyond time and space

Who is very loving and patient with the soul despite her material ropes hard to trim,

Who has graciously reminded this maid-servant of her eternality with Him,

Who is the Dearmost Witness, Beloved Companion and Divine Guide

Whose every gesture brings bliss, Who mercifully glances at souls on each side,

 

I shall go wherever You take me , Your wish is my command,

but please stay with me forever and live in my heart ,

no matter what , i pray never shall we part....

{I am thinking - better move this thread to "Krishna Talk" . The original post was fairly generic.}

Yes, when I woke up this morning and opened this thread, I saw your post. It`s was so beautiful that I could not help but opened immmediately this book, The Teachings of Lord Caitanya, as if by remote, quoted the Lord`s Siksastaka verses 5-8.
