Since I have sat at the feet of great beings, it is something I can vouch for. This poem describes the significance of sitting at the feet of great beings.

 

 

SITTING AT THE FEET

 

OF GREAT BEINGS

 

 

 

by Harry Kottler

 

 

Sitting at the feet of great beings

Is sitting at the feet of the Lord.

This is true, and

This poem’s for you;

In saints’ presence you’re moved toward

Night’s complete erasure through the

Grace you’re looking for.

 

Awash with all God’s glory

Their energy just pours.

 

Their wisdom is transcendent.

Happiness they’ve claimed

Enlightenment’s descended.

 

Forever mind’s been tamed.

Everything for them is God.

Everything is divine.

They reflect

 

Om’s grandeur, and their

Faces always shine.

 

Great beings hold the winning cards

Right inside their feet.

Every move they make

Aligns your space, as

Transformation you meet.

 

But you must do some work yourself.

Even grace needs help from effort.

In this world of time and space

No one can simply be at leisure.

Go and sit at a great being’s feet, and

Surrender to his will in full measure.
