Poem<br />
SHRADDA<br />
Wendell John A. Frando<br />
I am drawn towards You,<br />
like a wave’s retreat to the source;<br />
for such a whisper is hard to ignore,<br />
such silence is gravity, undefeated.<br />
In my heart there is union -<br />
for it speaks only of You,<br />
in my heart there is no fear,<br />
just a deep yearning of connection.<br />
I am speaking with my heart then,<br />
of your invitation to this acquaintance;<br />
of this moment of blissful realization,<br />
from which all dualities and space,<br />
weave in intricate patterns of the gunas.<br />
I see but not everything still -<br />
I know, but I am not certain.<br />
But I have come to receive shradda,<br />
and from which I chant OM.<br />
I have come to embrace my nature,<br />
and I have come to this, for a reason -<br />
So, like a caged bird who have come to<br />
freedom,<br />
let it be,<br />
that with all this yearning,<br />
allow me to fly to your elusive mystery.<br />
Wendell recently<br />
completed a teacher<br />
training. This poem was<br />
written during this time,<br />
and he dedicates it to his<br />
teachers and classmates<br />
for the inspiration. Wendell<br />
is from the Philippines, but<br />
is currently working in<br />
Hong Kong as a dancer.<br />
