Swamini Mayatitananda nominated for 2001 Nautilus Awards!


Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul,
As the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low-vaulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler than the last,
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast,
Till thou at length are free,
Leaving thine outgrown shell by life's unresting sea!

-Oliver Wendell Holmes,
The Chambered Nautilus
