LOW IS HIGH


Monday, August 3rd 2026

Woodbine Beach, Toronto



LOW IS HIGH



There is something extraordinary He had done

Krishna, once again, surprised everyone

The event was venued in Indraprastha

The city of grandeur, beauty about every casa


Attention was on Yudhishthir, the king

Statesmen, elites came, and those who dance and sing

Brahmins too, priests of the highest order

Indeed, guests from all sides of the border


But it was Krishna Who was most admired as He offered His reverences 

He exuded a warmth, revealing no preferences

He was equal to all as each person entered

He bent low to the feet, made each feel centered


He, Himself, was Guest of Honour Supreme

He chose modesty, humility as the theme

His cousin, Yudhisthir, was heir to sovereignty

The one chosen to anchor world harmony


But, it was Krishna who in effect stole the show

By stooping low, that if we copied could grow

Think of this – washing the feet of every guest

Can one at all think of a more noble gest?


To He Who wields the most fiery wheel

And bares a bludgeon hard enough to kill

On the tender side is the soft, fragrant lotus

And a conch that sounds as if to offer a bonus


– By Bhaktimarga Swami
