Elevation of the Soul

Traces of Previous Lives

(Aulacese Version)

Composed before the beginning of Supreme Master Ching Hai's formal search for Enlightenment in the Himalayas, Traces of Previous Lives contains the reflections of a merciful and noble soul living in a world of upheaval and impermanence, love and war. Her verses depict in extraordinary fashion the ordinary moments of struggle, hope, agony and beauty that emerge from deep within the author's heart, as in the following lines. …

I want to be the silky golden moonlight,
To follow my lover on all paths of life.

~ Excerpted from the poem--"Love Song II"

Read Traces of Previous Lives to experience the brilliance of Supreme Master Ching Hai's poetry, and be reconnected with the splendor of a soul on its path to everlasting happiness and liberation.
