filled with love for him. She felt so much love for the
Lord that she didn't want to do anything but think of
him. She used to compose bhajans about Krishna, and sing
them with her heart filled with devotion for him.The devotion
of her heart spilled into her voice, and made her songs
so sweet and beautiful that anyone who heard her singing
would know that she was a true devotee. She would wake
up in the morning thinking of Krishna, and go to bed at
night thinking of Krishna. Everything she saw would remind
her only of Krishna. She would spend long hours in front
ofher small alter, lighting incense and singing to the
lord.
She was very happy doing this.
