The Tide Rushes In
Srila Gour Govinda Swami referred to it as deficity (a feeling of deficiency); if we are not filled with prema, or at least bhava, we must feel that we are lacking satisfaction.
This emptyness within me must be filled by something but since I am a wretched, horrid, evil, self-indulgent excuse for a person Sri Sri Radha Krsna will not be comfortable within my heart of thorns, rubble and creatures of the darkest nights, so instead, the emptiness must be fulled with material madness.
If only I could make myself attractive to Sri Sri Radha Krsna.
My dear Srila Gurudeva please help me to subdue the six urges and purify my six faults, please bestow upon me the six qualities of a devotee and offer me the six kinds of devotional association.
I know that you are always with me, you are my every breath, every moment of my life, but still I hanker to be able to experience you with my eyes and ears, with every atom of my being, with every heartbeat and every pulse of existence as I rush headlong through the seconds of life, life after life after life. Oh, when will I again find myself sitting in your association?
