Quest

I've searched the depths of this heart Empty every word ever said Where in does this quest end For answers to questions unsaid I walk and run and crawl To find works that answer my thoughts Do I stop and wait for clues That fetch the bliss of Truth These tiny thoughts and words fall short To seek the eternal tunes of Gods Do I stop for answers or works That quench my quest for thoughts Lie after lie written and told Upon the memory of man long gone Holding thought to those dead words We fight and kill to hoard Death may answer questions untold To the ones Death decides to hold I wait not for Death to roll Into my path that unfolds Death shall come and pass Heavens and hell may last The length of a mad mans thoughts For every prayer of the past Death, mans excuse for a God In laziness religions last Knowledge the key to Bliss Mans eternal quest at last I stop here to reflect Words and deeds of man In Truth I see the essence The Bliss of eternal exitence I am.. Sat Chit Ananda

I shall write..

Do I write to enlarge my ego Or do I write for the Truth Is this consciousness pondering its origins Or is this a quest for Truth What is this around me Blood, Hate and Money Man is a threat to man To achieve his own self found glory Do I write for appreciation or is it to impress myself Is this the way to arouse A sense of duty in me Where from these religions and race Where from these philosophies of hate Who is that God who demands The fall of man to his wrath Do I write to satisfy This insatiable urge of greed The greed to see man and man live to realize peace Throw away this social hate Throw away these rituals of chains Throw away your books and gain The knowledge that life is pain Realize that man is minute Infinistesimal in this black hole Where light is a fabric of nature To hold the mind as a slave We are but lost in hate While this world burns with time Lost we are in our desire To own a dying mass of grime God is but a notion of man To love and heal in time While we live to...

Silence

Lose not the silence inside For this world is filled with music Lose not this Divine insight For You shall roam clueless again I am .. Sat Chit Ananda

Snow...

I cannot capture this sight In limited words or thought I am but a particle In this expanse of beauty White, this sky and air and earth Glowing mild and deep To my eyes, I try to search for The remaining sanity in my mind An envelope of mere snow Can create such a show What more can she do To a man unawares of true natural beauty My mind is lost in sight As I helplessly stand Gazing and wondering At this blanket of white From horizon to horizon she swells Covering the earth and sky My thoughts are captivated By this beauty dressed in white I stretch my arms to the sky wondering if I would melt away and join this whiteness and become beautiful, oh white sky A trick this is of light and impure senses A flash of nervous impulse This emotional intercourse with nature This whiteness, It questions my sanity.. I fall silent to the songs of this visual white poetry What more do you have in store Oh eternal beauty My Mother, My creator Oh Lord of Unfathomable Beauty I hold not any songs for you...

Civil War

By Guns n' roses (Slash / McKagan / Rose) Special Thanks Niven / James "What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach... So, you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it! Well, he gets it! N' I don't like it any more than you men." * Look at your young men fighting Look at your women crying Look at your young men dying The way they've always done before Look at the hate we're breeding Look at the fear we're feeding Look at the lives we're leading The way we've always done before My hands are tied The billions shift from side to side And the wars go on with brainwashed pride For the love of God and our human rights And all these things are swept aside By bloody hands time can't deny And are washed away by your genocide And history hides the lies of our civil wars D'you wear a black armband When they shot the man Who said "Peace could last forever" And in my first memori...

Oneness

Whatever be the times Of joy for all of the land Man is at his best To recogonize every man as a man Every culture in every land For the harvest or for rains Bring together the spirit Of Love for all within eyes reach Diwali, Eid or Christmas, Each every cultures best To see through the veils of emotions And hold ones neighbour as their own Touch your heart and feel What holds ones thoughts to believe That the spirit of these days Are for the very days

Om Shanthi Shanthi Shanthi

This earth, my Mother My creator, My All She asks for nothing She waits for no one Rolling and swirling In this dance of life She protects me From the emptiness that envelops her kind I breathe in and see I am not away from her But in her womb still Enjoying her warmth of love But around me I see Religion and Politics Hate and Anger Pride and greed, thats so unlike her And her children(?) Have they not learnt nothing Blaming each other as nations As religions, as aliens Fear and loneliness Responsibility and Control Popes and Prophets Profit from this chaos When will men be brothers For the sake of existence Rather than fight for lust In the name of religion I am not the first to ask Nor am I the last I wonder today whether I will live To see her children last.. Die, we shall all One life we all remember Why not live in peace And accept the other I say no prayer Because which God you ask I pray to mankind To realize life as life Colours there are so many Trees there are so many Animals...

Siva

Exactly what I was thinking today morning http://indiatemple.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_indiatemple_archive.html

Thoughts..

Is God true? Why ask.. Is this world true? Should I find out Many thoughts and many wars Have since been fought Over why I dont agree To your thought and God I ask this world Wide and Empty do you really care.. or Do you just spin around Round and Round in the dark You and I spin I Just want to stop So many philosophies So many thoughts So little time in this life So much to find out What is the truth then? Who says the truth Whoever wants to be true Would kill to make his the truth What religion, what God? What for these thoughts? I am.. this I know I need a support .. to go on I need a thought To stop my thought I fix it on one thought And that is my God I am.. Sat Chit Ananda

Moksha

Grha..(Home, My Body speaks) Darkness .. a condition? Or is it a state of mind Is it an absence of light? Or is it the nature of Bliss What is this thought What words are these Where did they come from I struggle to see Let me go back To the womb of my thoughts Where it is still dark to sleep in my true nature No thoughts, no words No light, no love Is this true? Is there such a state? Is this death? Is this the goal? Is this the false heaven We all crave to go? Darkness.. so sweet It holds a melody That melts my soul I remain, Dark... Sat Chit Ananda Kaama (My Desire Speaks) ... Darkness? I know not why I write this I know this isnt true I know this does not explain life Where did love disappear? I know there have been moments of joy the moments of sadness in my life The moments of despair The gushing streams of excitement The gladness in achievement The bliss of knowledge The smiles of the beloved And the tears from a child Can Darkness reveal these? Is Darkness greater than The mome...

Black God

Cornered by logic Held in emotional tangles I stare into space For a solution to my thoughts I watch in awe This expanding space From corner to corner Beyond me to imagine Lit by small lamps and never ending size I can only state it And never really hold it This observation done I close my eyes And feel such a relief To see my walls disappear Who can hold me now Where is culture and religion No more petty politics I have found my God I am free I am Sat Chit Ananda*! Sat - Existence Chit - Consciousness Ananda - Bliss of Knowledge

Ravana

Holding hands in the dark Waiting for his eyes to open To notice the love and want And to share with her this pleasure She runs her fingers through his hair and pulls her face close to his Breathing in as he exhales and wanting to kiss his lips She prays for this moment to last and imagines he was like the mighty Ravana* For she would have ten lips to kiss Unlike Ramas one single kiss How would it feel to experience The passion of one man in ten forms To the one kiss of the Lord~ who was dedicated to only One? He opens his eyes to see Her eyes lost in thought Wondering if she wanted him He pulls her lips to his... *Ravana - the 10 headed villain of the Ramayana ~Lord - here Rama, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu who was dedicated to his one wife Sita I had read a collection of rural songs a few years back which was about a womans wish that her lover was like Ravana. I was just thinking about it and thought I'd try my version of it.

Where to begin

Where did this start in the womb or in my mind Where am I headed to my goal or the devil What do I know I question today Only to fall short for more words This journey I take with no choice or will I live to achieve something To call it Destiny - is an escape I move on..

I wait..

Move on time, do I have a choice I roll with this earth in an endless motion To point where I've lost sense of direction Saddle me dear Earth Lets ride this wave together Neither of us have a hold As we have embarked on an endless journey Who is this in my way? Fate.. I dont believe in you Why are you in my way Dont follow me around, I am free...or so I believe We gallop into the dark space This expanse of darkness that envelops us Directionless and without any responsibility We march on Earth and I, an unlikely pair We approach this path in space White from afar, glowing as we draw near A sudden blast of light and I lose hold of the saddle Our romance seemed to have ended Where am I, whats happening Who are you? Fate you say, ... I remember you faintly; what do you want Oh so you direct me, Nay I say, I am free .... or so I think Where is Earth, she seems to have vanished Tears well up, my lungs choke My tongue dries as my limbs start tearing apart I approach this black hole He st...

Happiness without reason

Am I so used to the concept of logic Am I a person devoid of will Am I so scared that I need a reason To carry on what I do Do I need a validation for life What do I have to prove and for what Do I dissolve into nothingness If I just exist and be... Am I the bane for His grand plan Was I programmed to be yearning like this Time seems to be an infinite loop And I only pray that a path exists Years and years I have been in doubt All along hoping for Thy arms To grab my fate and change it And take away all my responsibilities Then Truth hit me between my eyes And I see clearly without my delusions The world just as it is in broad daylight Smiling without no reason at all Someone once said on enlightenment As the relief when you drop the load Willingly carried on ones own back And looking back and laughing out loud He also said it seems still laughing That after enlightenment the One carried The dropped load he once was burdened And proceeds willfully with his relief intact What more do I ...
