Prakirnaka
These verses were posted by me in 2003 on Gaudiya Discussions, "Pearls of Wisdom" . I came across them as the result of a Google search (in fact, some of them I had completely forgotten), so I am just crossposting them here for the record, as they are so nice, with a few editing changes. A nice simple prayer. I believe it may be Haridas Shastri's own composition. vaiṣṇave prītir āstāṁ me prītir āstāṁ prabhor guṇe sevāyāṁ prītir āstāṁ me prītir ārtiś ca kīrtane āśrite prītir āstāṁ me prītiś ca bhajanonmukhe ātmani prītir āstāṁ me kṛṣṇa-bhaktir yathā bhavet May I have love for the Vaishnavas. May I have love for the Lord's qualities. May I have love for service. May I have love and enthusiasm for Harinam Kirtan. May I have love for those who have taken refuge in the Lord. May I have love for those who even have a desire to engage in bhajan. May I have love for my own eternal self, by which devotion to Krishna comes about. aiśa-buddhi-vāsitātma-loka-vṛnda-dur...
