> Subject: 'manam vazhangu'
> Dear Bhaktas, Shriman Vasudevan's post on losing our hearts to Krishna was

> (Kuzhal oothi manam ellaam koLLai konda pinnar, kuRai ethum enakku Ethadi)

> A short note from me on this with the music embedded at:
> http://home.comcast.net/~surfings/Fullness.htm
> The text of the Note is reproduced below. The music can be separately heard
> at: http://home.comcast.net/~surfings/kuzhaloothi.mp3
> Krishnaswamy M.K.
>
> It is He who blows the first breath of life into us;
> it is He who determines the last breath of our life.
> May be, we should allow him to take us as His flute
> and play the sweet song of our entire life.
>
> This sentiment is expressed beautifully in the song:
> Kuzhal oothi manam ellam koLLai konda pinnar
> kuRai Ethum enakku Ethadi
> Tired of this stressful life and senseless persuits?
> Come; let us surrender to our dear Lord Krishna!
> Let us place our ego as the flute in His hands.
> Our every action will then becomes a note
> in the music that He will gladly play through us.
>
> Then, where will there be place in our mind
> for wants and wishes that ceaselessly haunt us?
>
> We can blissfully chant thenceforth with faith: I am wanting in nothing; I am
> full; I am full; I am full. OM! Poornamidam!
