    Religion is one
    the lord is one in all forms
    but names are many

    Religion is one?
    I agree: 'belief' is the
    only religion!

    Bhaskar I know you
    Are still in my heart, but are
    You still around here?

    Hannah, why would I
    leave a home in your heart and
    wander 'bout elsewhere?

    NOT A HAIKU!

    Carnivorous as
    It might seem, Bhaskar; still I would happily
    Eat your heart
    For the goodness it contains

    There are sweeter things in the world
    than my heart,
    the purity of which is quite dubious.

    I would recommend a mouthful of sky
    with some rainforest on the side
    seasoned with the harvest of spring
    and dressed in the pure waters of a melting glacier.

    For dessert, drink the nectar of Ramayana
    pouring from the lotus-like heart of Guruji.

    The taste of Ramakatha is such
    that its flavor does not fade
    its sweetness swells within you
    and fills everything around.

    No more will you hunger
    for the sweet things of the world
    for with Rama within you
    you are forever full.

    If I could eat the
    World, I would easily spare
    The chicken I crave
    *
    The strong animal
    Within, wriggles her claws deep in
    My gut; famished
    *
    Hear the deep growl of
    A hunger not sated, a
    Hot ripped heart to eat

    Such cravings feed
    and grow on indulgence.

    Starve them and they will die
    leaving all that is fresh and alive.

    my habit of chewing cuticles,
    does it disqualify me
    from vegetarian status?
