These are verses from Sivaprakasam Pillai's poetry
" You have taught me that though we may plan corers of things , nothing fructifies without God's Grace and that therefore the best devotee is he who does not plan anything.And yet I have not taken your teaching firmly to heart or controlled my mind"
"I do not follow the supreme path which you, my rare Guru, have taught. I do not give up my attachments to the world. You have made me mentally aware of the truth that I am not this perishable body.But you have not vouchsafed me practical realisation of the truth. A kind master should control and save his slave and not abandon him in disgust as an incorrigible brute."
"If you continue thus, leaving poor me to go my ways, how am I to be saved? Weakling that I am , I will not correct myself, and you , my Lord and master will not correct me. Have I any help except you in this life or the next? Tell me, what exactly do you intend to do with me? Is this right of you, my Guru?"
These stanzas suit all devotees of Bhagavan and only thing we can do is complete surrender to Bhagavan's Feet.
