THE HIDDEN TRUTH

Truth is hidden

Hidden in nothing

nothing but the nothingness of the mind

mind is nothing when shed of thoughts

thoughts that vanish into bliss

bliss that ensures nothing is amiss

amiss is the mind full of thoughts

thoughts mask and hide the truth

truth is subtly hidden

hidden subtly in nothing

nothing but an empty mind

mind which you then can't find

EVERYTHING WITHIN

We have pure, sweet and fresh milk

within our hands so rough and tender

But don’t know; for it is always our ilk

Not to know how with it to make butter

We have the fastest instantaneous connectivity

that goes beyond the galactic world wide web within

But we continue to depend upon Google outside

to find what we need; everything including a pin.

We have everything we need to be permanently happy

everything that can bring pure joy and happiness

but we get irritated when we have to change a nappy

while we can go within to gain sheer joyfulness.

We have the divine perfection within us

but dirty ourselves with imperfections thus

AESTHETICS OF ANATOMICAL DESIGN

The anatomy of the human body

is indeed a masterpiece of God’s creation;

Nothing about it is ever shoddy

for it has been sculpted to perfection.

Each and every limb is a perfect fit;

Every appendage and section built

with care and designed to fulfill its bit

with functionality and grace inbuilt.

Such is the human anatomy

Its design and its purpose

That it has gained such autonomy

and perfection of its organic corpus.

No better engineering can be carried out

to improve upon its performance

for each organ and limb that sprout

cannot by exchange be made to enhance.

Imagine a body with a head at its bottom

and a bottom resting in place of the head;

this will certainly appear as a dried up blossom

for indeed I would prefer to be dead

than found to be eating with my bottom

or caught to be sitting on my head.

and life then will turn so rotten.

Indeed the anatomy of the human body

Is a masterpiece of God’s creation;

Nothing about it is ever shoddy

it certainly has been sculpted to perfection.

ALL A MATTER OF PERCEPTION

I held up my forefinger

right in front of me

and asked those around the finger

what they did of my finger see?

The guy in front of me

said he saw the nail on my finger

while I could only see

the flesh behind the nail.

The guy to my left

said he saw half a nail

and half flesh with the nail

being to his left.

The guy opposite to him

who was to my right

also said he saw

half a nail and half flesh

but the nail part of my finger

was to his right unlike the other

who was opposite to him

and had said it was to his left.

It only reminded me

of the story of the five blind men

describing an elephant

for all their views

were of just a single dimension

and I realized it was

all a matter of perception

for no one saw my finger properly
or could describe it

in all its entirety 

ON ECSTASY

Normally

ecstasy is

of two kinds.....

One is

the ecstasy

of the flesh

and the other

is the ecstasy

of the soul.

While the later

is bliss

to be

experienced;

the first one

will devour us

whole.....

DISSOLVING INTO BRIGHTNESS

Like a candle

burning bright

before it

finally flutters

and completely dies

So too, the mind

churns out

bright thoughts

before it

completely dissolves

into a state

of thoughtless calm

and the bliss

of peace;

but while

the candle

dies into darkness

the mind

dissolves

into radiant brightness
