Glimpses of Sentiments
feelings, and joy all imaginative. In the exchange of innocent love, you hand over to me joy of 'SAMADHI', You cut-off joy in quarrels. in the exchange of pious waiting for you, you give me joy of devotion, You burn out my joy in lust. In the exchange of feelings without hypocricy, you grant me joy of faith, You remove joy of intellect and joy of doubts. In the exchange of letters of invitations to you not only joy in religious activities but you give me joy of religious approach and remove joy of sins and joy of sinful evil approach. In the exchange of following your orders you give me joy in receiving your orders, and you crush joy of evil instincts. For penance performed; in the exchange thereof you give me joy of position near you. You remove joy of various tastes in food. In the exchange of heaps of 'SAMAYIK' you give me taste of equanimity, drive away joy of all attachments. In the exchange of a lot many 'SVADHYAY;' giving joy of the rule of Bhagwant-joy of scriptures remove my interest in useless, evil talks. In the exchange of 'STUTIS' sung for you, give me joy of virtuous activities; and giving that joy of virtuous activites you burn joy of slandering. In the exchange of your 'Darshan' give me joy of seeing virtues in others and remove joy of seeing evils in others. In the exchange of your worship you gift mejoy about the essence of the saviour. You finish joy of cruelty towards others.
