AWAKENING (Bijoylakshmi Das) Silence all around, Solitude reigns over the earth; I sit in my soul's repose - With visionary eyes cast Upon a distant immeasurable Vast! Night descends slow behind her veil, Soft are her footsteps - Spreading sweet fragrance. It adores the dark, Enlivens Zephyr's touch and Brown's vernal mirth Speaks message subliminal For the fatigued Earth. Blessed sits my Sweet-heart Shares the kingdom of Bliss Of infinite treasures worth. Betwixt heaven and earth The line of separation fades slow, The horizon loses semblance. A remarkable Mystic significance! One seeks the One The Creator and the creation - Ger united in the greatest communion! Actor turned into acts; Dreams and Dreamer are now together - No more poles apart! Love is One's yearning for the One In the Supreme Art! All is eternal and in eternity all do last. Infant longings of the past Toils hard across sands of Time To meet the long-cherished quest Since the mortal birth. In Soul's highest awakening The seeds sown on memory's clay-bed, Awaiting to reach the morning rays Of the golden Dawn. The Unique Revelation! Paradise of Union - Behind the curtain With azure surprise With gifts of hope and beautiful surmise, Sweet hours of the night Clad in apparel dark Offers ecstatic smile To greet the starry firmament stark. Splendid is the message Writ on sky's blue page The ****** vesper Moon Speak delight pure Send myriad hues :Know not why... All is joy around us Forever sublime and to admire The Mystic Fire! Hid from man merged in mind's mud and mire. It's tardy process of death and birth.
The Flute of the One sitting above Sings Muse of Divine Love. If awakened and awake "Can hear the never-ending rhyme Ever sublime Goes on forever Since time immemorial Beyond space and time". Deaf to ears Merged in stupor! Denied to the one Dipped in mortal fear.
Silence all-pervading Unending Bliss profound Makes us spell-bound In the heavenly play ground! Be a part of it, Oh dear mortal Dweller! Your body is just a mask; Evolution ceases not In petty limits of human birth. Man, not the summit Infinite is ecstasy To reveal the Supreme and His Unique Art! To reach the highest realm of spiritual splendour Of its summit's gain, Not in Matter's false glamour and Ego's disdain ; But in the sojourn of an illumined Vast To unveil the TRUTH. Awake and arise In this wonderful compromise Meet your Soul - Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent In your new Immortal Birth. (Bijoylakshmi Das, Anand Utsav Ashram, Haridwar. 20.05.2019)
