I am a Caliban groaning Oppressed by Prospero In an Isle unknown spring My urge to freely flow. Desires of Prospero his bridle ***** and nag me ; my Ego resists The Cultural pressure they girdle To shroud my Peace and past fast. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I am a Caliban
Right and Wrong : born by Deeds As Adam sons : Abel and Cain. The Bible and the Qur’an ,still, Are Vedas of the Semitic people. Eve-wife of Adam rebelled once And opened the Gate of Hell. Down they fell leaving Paradise To toil on Earth - their DNA hold The right and wrong: we too hold. Follow Christ to absolve from Sin Follow Al Ameen (pbuh) for Heaven: Pray for Peace(Islam) of Heaven And be righteous to save from Hell. Both pray and prey each other, Alas! Even during” holy Ramadan” days. Unity and Grace both teach us, but. Their Institutions cheat us bright. Hindu Vedas too teach us well On the Unity of souls in a Soul Also with a path of Its Dualism. Love all ; sacrifice for others To attain our Heavenly Abode. Suras worship idols in Temples Asuras hate it in their temples. Right or Wrong :both by the Deeds They inherit the Hell or the Heaven. Shall not **** !Desire not others wealth! For all Wealth is of God, the Creator- So taught but our lust make us killers. (26/7/2014)

O, dear friends! May I tell a , tale of Graceful Norse God ?. Odin or Woden of the Norse Myth Father of gods and men on Earth Faced much risk, to help His world Mimir the God of Knowledge claimed One of His eyes to share knowledge. Suffering much studied Woden- Runes on wood, metal and stone. Ravens on either side of His shoulder Fetch the news from far and wide Thought and memory were two birds Hugin and Munin they were called. He got skaldic mead from the Giants Touch of which makes anyone a poet. Gracious Odin gave away His skills To all gods and men of His reign. Can you be such a heroic leader To save our sighing Motherland? ============================= Note:Norse Myth=Mythology of the Scandinavian area. The day of the Woden is Wednesday.

A MODEL HERO
ODE TO  RIOTERS The clouds rumble , O! sons of Malice ,hear The smoke of arson and roar of lies In the name of God in heaven; to the tune of lords near Ignorant men  , followers of Dionysus fly like flies. Think ! read ,what the history of man tells Of fire that Prometheus brought for our happiness But, ingratitude of satanic forces by  spells Inflame the fire of Ire and burn the huts; brings unhappiness. Tempters like Hera of Zeus pleasantly smile Resting in Bars or legislatures , counting votes on computer screen Echo of slogans on Equality, Fraternity, Liberty from a mile Makes in social conscience  a  scathing scene. The land of Buddha. Abraham Lincoln, prophets of peace all Sent by God to every race and all clans dull, Told the people all over to be kind Loving ,lovable and of service mind. (2). O! political crookedness, in struggle for power  you tempt People to compete and hate and conquer By communal spirit forgetting  Divine Spirit and contempt Religious heads and political aspirants together Like criminals think and twist the holy ideas, even They hold holy books in left hand and in right hand gun And advice disciples to die and **** for heroic heaven For them, as if death is an easy going fun; The First Estate of France still as  impulses here in world Reign the countries as rulers  of Democracy mocking And they jointly exploit subjects ; and devotees of the spiritual world, Misguide men and women  by prayers rocking Hope of Heaven and horror of Hell Make the people, forget all , and yell When the villainous leaders signal by baton The desperados become boys wanton. (3) O! devilish War-Lords, do you read Vedic Books? What they mean ? for you mean? as they tell of God ,the sole Creator The Creator of you and the “Other”  in your hooks. The Preserver and Destroyer , may not be for you Pharaohs greater, O! Pharaohs , you don’t  cause rain, make the Sun rise And the greenery, birds and fish flourish . When the Earth rumbles and tsunami rages you give the price The rewards of hatred you sowed nourish- All around ,as chemical war terrorism-a horrible nightmare But, Epicureans! All are from Him and unto Him all shall return. Marketing competitions and sale of arms cause the Wars As history reminds us :none gained but failed to sustain peace; Still, the blunder of division of people and exploitation stars Rise , at the West with the dying Sun’s horses and Mars. Politics and Economics -two horses of Civilization unbridled Terribly gallop with men on them girdled. (4) O! cruel  egoistic  businessmen ,you globalize immorality By greed, you trade with  fanatics and  terrorists, Spur clashes: Multiculturism versus monoculturism denying plurality Challenging Eternity; certainty of scientists. At Saranath,Lord  Buddha told disciples on the Middle Path of  life To Torah “The Lord our God , the Lord is One”, so Jesus taught us all And guided to worship  God in” Spirit and truth “ in our life No other Lord but Allah deserves worship of us all- Allah is the Light of the Earth, and of the Sky ,O! Lord God is the Eternal  Light  to illuminate all  ;to be worshiped Bhagavat Gita says,"The body is the temple of God In the Spiritual realm : all are from the One ,the worshipped. God is the only One without birth and death The Unique unlike the creatures on earth The Force is called “atma” by Vedas no trade and Sciences  tell: it is Eternal  , cannot be made by human hand. . (5) O! the ill -taught  simpletons , think !why shall we spoil life in feuds communal or political  for the luxury of masters Suicide never a sacrifice; if at all ,it is beheading of human in life At the altar of regal, egotist power-mongers. The Only God is the  Seed of all; names may differ by language difference Holy books use all noble qualities to the name the Supreme Lord Then, why the sons of that One Lord, in repentance Think on action : virtue  or evil and pray: forgive ,O! Lord In democracy, we are free to believe  the God or not Still, we can be human by refraining from paining others Freeing ourselves from communal hatred, the vicious knot As the political fences   encircle us that make us enemies of others. Stars in the sky and the Sun and the Moon Are mortal ones from God for our boon. Let us be men and women loving all , serving all; Not severing heads; but lead a life ,culturally tall.                                              ********************************* Note:atma=soul.

A CANOPY Under the canopy by my field of paddy with giggling stream: I .. Singing, dreaming and reeling in thrilling Nature’s pasture , live ever darling, O! darling ; I live ever darling, O! darling . See.. Glancing around as camera eye Imprints images so sweet, dear. of graceful quadrupeds grazing gliding birds , swinging monkeys dashing fishes in frothy stream. Sigh.. At times, why ?... sigh I? Thy sweet dreams nag, me, and hoist the faded flags. Why not pardon, ..methinks we lived a life of slouch, no ? Die.. Die or dye.., what in life prudent ? think, in thick woods we find tough life still, Nature nurtures life. Under the canopy by my field of paddy with giggling stream: let us live ,dear, without strife, and lead a carefree lovely life. ================================

On watching Indian Polity Such was my country twenty-one Summers ago In a starry night I ,with my wife Prema young Walked along the road of midnight Mysore slow As snow veil clad chilling breeze rippled along. No ****** , drunkard, rowdy, as hyenas did draw No clique with camera to strip or **** did throng An auto -driver so friendly took us to a lodge; so Gladly with son Sudev we enjoyed Dassara song . Now, in every city , I fancy , Sahasralinga’s attacks From Bars with bars such barbarians may pounce As executive dread such law-breakers to punish. Political aspirants languid sit in and pronounce In Parliament to protect the culprits from barracks Deceiving democrats and putting them in anguish. ====================================== Note: Prema: name of wife; Sudev: name of baby(son). Sahasralinga: nickname of Indra /Devendra.(King of Devas who live in luxury. Parliament: the legislative building. Mysore: the city in Karnataka,India former capital of Mysore kings. Dassara:a state festival in Karnataka, ==========================================

On Watching my Polity
The dizziness shrouds me as fog around a hill All images fade around as pills in me fill Duty loaded nurses curse as cries **** the sleep Poison from  planes in plains brings dark sleep. All along the plains as the Lord of Wars in bars Sit in fit  and guffaw as the savages  in  wars. Eat they though  human flesh stinging hot blood Savages won’t ****  their children  cruel as the flood. Speaking much of holy Bible and holy Qur’an , We speak  proudly of Vedic text tells Love to man Socrates and Plato died ,died Gandhi for the Truth Even now we keep away from Truth lighted path. Life around us moves now as victim of the drugs Hence turn to Right Path , and save us from the crux.

Turn to the Right Path
I love my country: India , but I hate many of its rulers, as they speak for the poor and act for tycoons bellicose, and- Diversity sighs in armed Unity; The selfish corrupted in unity March ahead on graves crafty. I love my country: India , but August fifteenth : with freedom, opened all devilish forces out of Hell to fell all virtues. Grim faced Buddha smiles Like a nuclear Phantom ,his tears drip on tomb of Peace. No white dove sits on dome It bleeds in the lap of Buddha. If birth is the cause of gloom. who stops one from bloom? Dearth of berth clamour for Death of birth at the womb. I love my country: India , but Souls are free on lovely Earth Lay bodies strain to survive. A nominal word equanimity Gushes in landslide infirmity. Service becomes self –service, In black ink sleeps Socialism. Fear Neurosis like King Kamsa Keeps Liberty behind the bars. Healthy, wealthy Bharat Matha Groans in labour room for Santi. Note: 1). August fifteenth= 15 August 1947 when India became free from Briton. 2).Buddha=Gutham Buddha(Prince Sidhardha) who established Buddhism.3).Kamsa= The mythological character , uncle of Lord Krishna who chained even his sister Devaki out of the fear psychosis. 4),Bharat Matha= Indians consider Bharat/India as their Mother(Matha)-so it is Mother land not Fatherland for them .Santi/Shanti=a Sanskrit word used in Vedas and Upanishads of India which means Peace or Islam.

A Thread of Equanimity. [Note:ref. holy Qur’an(1:4)m holy Bible,John,(4:23-24) and Mundakopanizhad(1:6)]                                   Ramzan reminds us of holy Qur’an That tells us  to read ; observe, think. Serve, the needy with sakat , sadaka Pray only Him ; for He  only forgives. “Iyaka  na abudu wa  iyaka nasthaieen” [Only Thou we worship; rely Thou ]- “Yesha Sarveswara Yesha Sarvagna Yesho  antharyamyesha yooni : sarvasya Prabhavapyau hi  bhoothanam” [Protector of all, the All-knowing is He He is The Force ,  the Seat is He ; Form Him Emerge all; to  Him all go  back] “Twamekam Sarenyam, twamekam varenyam Twamekamekam jagat karanam” “Only ,Thou art reliable, noble Thou art Thou art the only Cause of creations.] The righteous worship Him in Spirit and- In Truth ; “God is spirit” ; so says,  Jesus. To every race has sent God Prophets They only taught to follow the Right Path. Call it Dharma or Deen you may; call it, Follow the same path ,:refrain from vices. Love is the thread of  equanimity, Spun up- by  mystic conscience super.
