Excerpts from Shiva’s praise of Rama in Uttarakand of Sri Ram Charit Manas by Goswami Tulsidas: जय राम रमारमनं शमनं, भव ताप भयाकुल पाहि जनं। महि मंडल मंडन चारुतरं। धृत सायक चाप निसंग बरं।

अनंत संसार समुद्र तार नौकायिताभ्यां गुरुभक्तिदाभ्यां। वैराग्य साम्राज्यद पूजनाभ्यां नमो नमः श्री गुरु पादुकाभ्यां॥१॥

कृष्ण: कृष्ण: कृष्ण: भोर ही मुख बोलो कृष्ण:

This song says: I am your cow, O the keeper of cows Gopal. I am lost. Please find me and take me back to safety. This body made of five elements (earth, water, fire, air and space) is driven by five errors of desire, anger, attachment, greed,

What is anger? Remembered pain from the past. What is fear? Anticipation of pain in the future. What is guilt? Directing pain back at yourself. Depression is the depletion of energy that happens with all of the above.

Born Free is a movie about Elsa, a lioness and her owners’ attempt to teach her to live in the jungles of Kenya. They did not wish to send her to a zoo for a captive life. Born free. As free as the wind blows. As free as the grass
