My master



Prayer to my Guru, Sri Hanuman :
 Acharya Sudhakar V.Rao MD
Oh Master!, As I walk through the trail of life
Wrought with troubles and varieties of grief,
Your face and mind, I see, tranquil like the still waters  in a pond,
Undisturbed by the falling pebbles of sand,
My attempts to follow you, I hope will not fail!
As I follow you on this your trail,
I try to be right behind you on your heel
But Often do I falter as I try to follow And often do I fall,
Pause for me as you walk forward, turn around, for me, wait!
Help me stand on my feet
And walk again not with you but behind you!
For, I can never measure up to you,
Oh! Saint, Kindness is thy virtue
There is no vice in you!
