WISDOM OF THE VAST
(Bijoylakshmi Das, 22nd March 2020)
Rays of radiance from the untouched Vast
Wing my hours with aureate Bliss,
The austere epiphany of the enamoured mirth
Lures me to the land of illimitable peace.
With Truth as Chariot which I ride
The celestial valour as its wings,
Patience’s puissant height to attain without pause
Dignity of depth – the song it sings.
The world seems to be a coin having two faces
The one is the brightest brilliance of the certitude vast,
The other is the dark delirium of despair
Forsaken sobbing of desires’ dance.
The measureless might of the million suns,
The deep conscience pulls my chariot’s strings,
Compassion infinite cradled in my *****
Forgiveness as weapon to defeat enemies.
With kindness and love showered upon Ignorance
My Golden Chariot heads to the Invisible’s Goal,
Beauty envelopes me with beauteous wonder,
The celestial surprise knocks at my door.
The Supreme Surrender as my successful Charioteer
The fearless fortitude drives me on,
The dark side of the coin is just a mirage
Soon to fade away in the rising Sun.
The lovely lightening from lovelier clouds
Steers clear the path ahead of me,
The sweetening symphony plays the Flute
With thunder as armour guards my side.
The magnificent mansion to reach in the woodland vast
With beautiful blossoms that adorn its floor,
No roofs to make the Freedom bound,
No walls to limit man to mind’s corridor.
There rules the One Law of the Supreme Master
No space for hatred, greed and mortal fear,
The Spring-spangled splendour is high in air:
The eternal ecstasy of the Supreme Dear.
My Sun-clad journey to the Moon-rapt Rapture
The heavenly Damsel pours the heavenly nectar,
I’m Freedom’s the most cherished Choice
I’m the Guest of Honour at Infinity’s door.
So I reign in the Kingdom of the Absolute
I’m the pure Soul of ineffable Bliss,
The world I once inhabited in the forgotten yore:
My memory’s torn pages merged in debris.
Truth is Bliss profound, Truth is Freedom vast,
Truth is the only Solace to win each and every heart.
Oh Man! Rise from stupor to re-discover your Soul,
Adore the true Wisdom of Truth and make it your Goal.
