T.S. Eliot quoted Sanskrit in his famous poem
“Om shanti shanti shanti”
Meister Eckhart preached
“Only the hand that erases can write the true thing”
T.S. Eliot needed a better guru than Ezra Pound
Someone to arouse his bhakti
Someone like a nobody peddler from the East End of London
With a name like Henry Herzfeld
Yeah, imagine T.S. Eliot becoming a devotee of Henry Herzfeld
“Oh shema shema shema”
