Haude Gosain was a follower of the mystical Baul tradition of Bengal, said to have been born into a Brahmin family in 1795, but there is very little recorded of his life.

On the other shore
Of the ocean
Of one’s own self,
Quivers a drop of fluid–
As the origin of all.
But who can cross the seas
To reach it?

The root of all
Is based in you.
Explore the base
To reach the essence….
