Two Poems by Nileen Putatunda
On my way to Belur Math,
The buses will stop
At different points;
May my Guru-mantra japa
Be non-stop.

Thakur,
More than three kalpas ago,
Before the Big Bang,
You had decided to dance here
Starting AD 1855,
And create the sweetest universe possible,
One that will never end,
Only sweeten.
(with gratitude to Shyamal Dasgupta, Swami Atmajnananda, Swami Atmajnanananda)
