URBAN MONK

URBAN MONK

If you’re a monk in a mega city

You just can’t sit there looking pretty

In the ashram there are programs on the go

That operate at a pace that is not slow

Humanity has needs you don’t want to miss

Keeping active is truly a state of pure bliss

Community interests never put you on pause

While outreach efforts are a regular, ‘cause

Mindfulness is the direction to the transcendental

Let’s be practical and deal with the dental

Some intense days you could cut with a knife

Striking that balance in the real life

Because he’s set to work, pray, dance, and sing

A monk loves life, so wouldn’t trade for anything

There is a monk principle in just everyone

Take a chunk of your life, experience the fun

I guarantee this soulful approach is for all

This ‘walk-in-the-park’ is simply Krishna’s call

– By Bhaktimarga Swami
