Hi Nya,

I really have no positives for my years in the cult. Maybe as time flows and the pain eases up I will. For me devotion wasn't a "sometimes" thing. It was everything. So was surrender. It will take a lot for me to recover.

Here is a poem I wrote while in the ashram.

 

Time and the river of life

I searched the forest for the fine palace

Where You first gave Your love to me

Either it has become a barren wasteland

Or I know not the way there

I pleaded my case with Time

That I cannot live in this desert alone

He laughed quietly and walked away

Taking even the memory of Your touch

Beyond my reach

Maybe You will come back and make my heart Your home again

Building it tall and strong with Your Name

But I don’t know, the river of life

Runs so fast and I am quickly growing older

Oh, if I could only find You

We would dissolve time by our sweet love

          And the river of life would start at our door

 

And here is another one.

 

How could You go and hide yourself?

How could you go and hide Yourself

Where can I find You?

If I rip apart the stones

Will You be there?

And what about under each leaf?

I’d want to peel back the sky

If only Your radiant form I’d see

Time will never mend this heart

Only whores speak of fidelity

Who can call it faithfulness

                    When You’re the only reality

Karen
