THE PLENITUDE OF SPLENDOUR
(Re-edited)
The breath in the air,
The whisper in the breeze,
The whistle of the nightingale;
All pleasant surprise!
The sky bares the *****
For the mirth of the seas;
Raptures rapt around
in Morn’s miraculous release.
The rustles in the leaves,
The murmur in the brook,
The Love in the zephyr –
At the new Blossoms’ bashful look,
Make waves kiss the shore;
The Ocean dances with joy;
The message of the Beloved rings in the woodland far away.
The spirit of the Soul listens to the invisible call.
The song of the Silence
Is writ in the clay,
Im desolate and forlorn left on Night’s eerie solitude far away..
The twinkle of the stars
Speaks of the immensity vast;
The silvery white Moon unveils an amazing forecast.
The clouds over the hills
Heralds hours of Bliss infinite:
The flutter of the wings
Of the birds at the sight
Bring tidings from the Realm Recondite.
Creation is vast, beautiful for the Godhead to alight.
Time’s torrential outcome
Human mind fails to count;
The one sole-existent Entity
Keeps track of all account.
The twilight splendour
That our eyes encounter
To vibrate in its Harmony
Without the least fear;
Make it your Goal.
You are the exalted Ecstasy –
Rapture’s well-chosen envoy,
All the rest goes to the revolving wheel to be crushed
You are the exalted Ecstasy :
Rapture's well-chosen envoy,
All the rest goes to the revolving wheel to be crushed asunder at His One behest.
Go deep within from the turmoil of the shore,
Keep your door open for the Heaven's elixir to knock at your door.

THE SUBLIME UNITY
(Bijoylakshmi Das, 31st August 2021)
I dwell in distant heights of the unreachable amazing Blue
Nothing in my little self remains that does belong to you,
Heaven’s flower may not seek to blossom on the miry earth
Latter is not ready to give shelter to any celestial worth.
Life that blooms afar is beyond matter’s reach
Man of matter has turned into a monster, call it the beast;
The paradise you build far beyond limits of stretch of space
It is only for the One above you love the best.
All that is “You” loves all-pervading “I” in me,
It’s not body, nor mind nor spirit that can see;
The breath that flows in air even though horizons apart
We are the indivisible whole of the omnipresent infinite Vast.
The ripples that reverberate within in rapture’s mystic moments,
New songs are born giving rise to musical accomplishments,
Every word we utter in solitary hours in the rarest inmost depth
It is ether’s treasure immortal and well-secured never does meet mortal death.
Let starry sky shed no more tears in dark night of despair
The elixir of the Elysian bliss is devoid of mundane desire,
The ocean’s expanse knows only the magnanimous eternity’s shore
Life is the perfect manifestation of Absolute - the one unique Whole.
All of ME belong to all of YOU only in Eternity
Creation’s cloistral corridor creates most enchanting ecstasy,
The intransient Intangible impregnates deathless life in each moment to each
Be a part of His endless Love and get bound by is infinite reach.

THE LITTLE “I”
(Bijoylakshmi Das, 31st July 2021)
Man – the dumb ignorance in awakening vast
The poor little urchin glued to the inconscience stark,
A tiny speck of dust in the Absolute’s ocean stretch
The ignoble, evil doomed to its miserable mortal death.
Life not limited in its limited robe of flesh and blood,
Spirit not entitled to loiter in the miry mud
Pain and suffering are the only self-made disaster
To reach the invisible self-existing unity:  the divine goal.
All futile attempts to create God in his own image
Rather than to reach the godhead stage by stage,
The child, savage and animal- all three manifest in his finite orb
To the great purpose he is born, but how to serve!
The concept of reward and punishment is not the goal
Then incessant you do go on playing the fictitious role,
The childish desire you possess within to reach Heaven or Hell
The mad ethics of repentance makes you dream of the Kingdom of Bliss to dwell.
To reach the passion unlimited in an all-seizing embrace
To grow in the Light of Wisdom in the higher evolutionary emergence
The self-fulfilling Delight to become one with Unity in diversity
The Soul’s journey is to reach the ultimate goal in human life.
You are one with all and all with one,
You are alone in the endless Ecstasy but truly not alone.

IN THE DREAM TWILIGHT OF THE SOUL
(Bijoylakshmi Das)
Life flows fast but journey infinite,
Do not lose your goal: Wisdom’s foresight.
From Blue to Brown and Brown to Blue,
Your aim- the celestial Beyond that reckons the blissful hue.
Wedded to the airy wideness of a flawless felicity,
Trusted upon the unwavering call of the steadfast certitude,
Your journey begins from the womb of flesh and blood
It has to reach perfection of the boundless beatitude.
Alone in the serene tranquility of the inmost depth,
To breathe the air of freedom from long-lost time’s immemorial quest,
Like the winner of the game of clambering steps
Oh Sons of Eternity! Do reach eternal loving breast.
The wild wanton play of greed and unwanted desires though dance all around,
But you have no role to play in the fictitious play ground;
Let the world go mad in its self-made insane uproar,
All is its own creation, it has to suffer.
You are the unique voyager of the sublime height,
Do never interfere, Reach the timeless Beyond: your one and only Goal.
Your thoughts transcend the limits of the mortal mind,
Physique no more slaves to desire of the senses blind;
Enraptured by the Sweetheart’s myriad-hued ecstatic embrace,
You are one with Infinity merged into its infinite grace.
Sit solemn in the inexpressible heights of the expanse blue,
Your beauty enlivened with blessedness’ heavenly hue;
You are the blazing effulgence of the brightest sun,
Also you are the calm moon-beam delight of the most refreshing rays of the earliest Dawn.
Harbor not despair in your heart, you are no part of it,
You are the inhabitant of the kingdom of mystic magnificence with no territorial limit.
The indwelling Godhead in each and every mortal chamber:
Creation’s cherished embellishment of the highest divine order.
Oh incarnation of Bliss! Do not ever grieve,
Bliss is thy birthright and in Bliss you do live.

THE RIVER FLOWS IN YOU
(Bijoylakshmi Das)
(1)
The Creation is the beginningless Whole,
It has no end too,
It is like the most beautiful river
That flows within me and you.
(2)
The rapturous call of the beatitude beyond
To the land of timeless peace,
The melancholy of the mystic murmur heralds the infinite woodland bliss.
(3)
The amazing notes from stupendous heights
Breathe life in listless hours,
The hierarchy of ascending marvel unleashes Heaven’s healing showers.
(4)
The river flows within you,
Listen to its silent rhapsody’s rhyme;
Earnest to meet Eternity
In its quest pure and sublime.
(5)
The world Artist paints on the canvas
His unique archetypal curve.
Where the new meets the old
And the decrepit does dissolve.
(6)
The one Alone deciphers the Destiny
In celestial clairvoyant notes,
When devils cite the scripture
To meet the vilest purpose.
(7)
All is done by the One Will
Who sits immobile above,
His Love is infinite,
His Compassion even is beyond His Love.

THE WORLD STIR
(Bijoylakshmi Das)
When healing drops of Heaven’s elixir
Drop down upon Earth,
Beauty speaks of Delight of Being
And Brown breathes an exhilratingmirth;
Let the sublime silence of the sky
Meet not the furore of the miry filth,
And let night go without end
Though darkness seems to exist.
A serene tranquility trembles within the
Tremulous expanse of the occult space,
An iodolon of ecstasy soon
Retraces its long lost forgotten steps;
The nascent air is now vibrant with
The message of the incommunicable breeze,
An illimitable joy from the Kingdom of Bliss
Seeks its spectacular release.
The solitary clairvoyant writes
His message in inaccessible heights,
The memory’s archive soon opens
Its pages of formidable foresight;
The desolate despondency is in the soul within
Still, there is magnificent melancholy rapture-clad,
The lightening freedom bares its *****
To make the lone explorer extravagantlymad.
The miracle of mystery unfolds the secrecy
Of the unlocked chapter of the divine play,
The inner audience is the only witness
The appeal of the Ineffable opens its doorway,
The effulgence of a thousand suns
Emerges from the abysmal darkness’ depth,
The moonlit marvel raises alarm
Alas! Ony the stars are wide awake!
It is only in the awakening of your Soul,
The illusory world game disappears
In the purest Consciousness
Beyond Body, Mind and Spirit
In an enlightening Wisdom
You do reach the supreme human Goal.
