SSR 3h: May the spotless lotus of the Mahābhārata

-7-

May the spotless lotus of the Mahabharata,
Which grows on the waters
Of the words of Vyasa
And of which the Bhagavad-gita
Is the irresistibly sweet fragrance
And its tales of heroes
The full-blown petals
Fully opened by the talk of Lord Hari,
Who destroys the sins
Of Kali-yuga,
And on which daily light
The nectar-seeking souls,
Like so many bees
Swarming joyously-
May this lotus of the Mahabharata
Bestow on us the highest good.
