Peculiar Canons Of Distaste

Peculiar Canons Of Distaste
The materialistic demeanor will not insure
that this phenomenal existence will not recur.
But what will, my friends, I'm sure,
is listening to Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur.
Infinitesimal absolute is not supreme,
But disassociated from the Absolute by his foolish dream
Between two infinite dominions he trod,
And started thinking, "Perhaps I'm God."
Transcendence regrets these fallen ways,
But facilitates with this phenomenal phase.
Those who exhibit distaste for this mundane sod
Will do well to follow Bhaktisiddhanta Srila Prabhupada.
Variegated positions of the Absolute resemble
Plural phases of this transitory ensemble.
So we offer an anthropomorphic suggestion,
And discredited transcendence as a cultural extension.
But these conceptions are philosphical pretensions,
Concocted in whole by our limited inventions.
But for those who truly wish to see,
The Lord has sent Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati.
His teachings are there, regardless of caste,
So find them quickly, time is slipping fast.
This one life will soon be past;
Only what's done for Krsna will last.
