Madras

One great soul from high above,
Decided to try because of his divine love.
Across the "forbidden sea" he began to fare,
To this sampradaya it was mighty rare.
Only a few rupees he took
And the Bhagavata Purana, Kali-yuga's only book.
During the voyage he became very sick,
To Krsna's pure devotee it's a loving kick.
Finally reaching the distant shore,
It appeared most difficult to locate even one vegetarian store.
Experiencing many hardships, and bearing the cold,
His Divine Grace like a lion was bold.
To Krsna's lotus feet he had an eternal hold.
Every day he preached in the park.
To try with his love to remove them from the dark.
Sometimes he would chant and sometimes he would dance,
This was Caitanya's process to give them all a chance.
Not to engage in rigorous tapas, is the Kali-yuga message for all the mass.
His Divine Grace came to deliver this simple message.
Even though he received so much flak,
Still his determination would not crack.
Now in every town and village you are beginning to hear,
That which is eternally very dear.
That transcendental sound, which brings back the soul
Connected with love, to that Supreme Whole.
So is one thinks that His Divine Grace is an ordinary person,
Open your ears and try to listen.
It's stated in the sastras that to spread this bhakti throughout the world,
That great soul must be empowered by the Supreme Lord.
