Poems

85:01
A ballad for my birthday
A desi man foresees his death
A prayer for a magic drug
Birthday service
Conception
Elemental
Gaussian song
I’d like to say sorry
I rush through life
Mission San Juan Bautista
No Land for Lovers
Rama’s Diwali
Second Life
The night is meant for us to speak of eternal things
Uncontrollable

Daily Dharma

All the world is my own family
A part we learn from those who teach us
A river never sips or drinks
Between a villain and a snake
Don't think about the past and cry
Fight anger with serenity
It's knowledge that will set you free
Knowledge is our greatest treasure
Let truth be told regarding gold
Money is your only friend
Shadows and friends
Speak the truth (but sometimes don't)
The beasts and the lamb
The best will never waver, never quit
The camel’s wedding
The cuckoo and the crow
The daily question
The gift of knowledge
The lion isn't appointed
The one who brings things together
The one who’s far is not that far
The parable of the clouds
The parable of the trees
The price of wise advice
The silence of the wise is wise
The wise are honored beyond borders
The world is full of experts
To succeed you must try and try
Water drops on blades of grass
Welcome a logical, rational word
What is a burden for those who are clever?
What’s in someone else’s hands is pain
With knowledge that's in books and verses
