The Unity

Lost in the transient celebration of youth, and pleasure,

Among the charade of attachment and longing,

Drugged in pride, and achievements

Living that mirage, in that what we call Life,

Hidden is the truth – the ultimate fate – The Death,

Yet man tries to escape it, ignore it, forget it.

So, is solitude inherent in life.

Yet, man tries to escape it, ignore it, forget it.

Each soul, by essence is alone.

It is all transient drama of togetherness

With people and things!

The drama ends in no time.

Abruptly in one moment of stillness!

In that stillness

Is lost all the hurt, all the grudges,

All the follies, and all the achievements.

Meaningless are all the wins,

Just the loses mean of worth then,

For they had helped purifying the soul,

Realized in that silence!

Even then, in the solitude of life,

It makes a beautiful sense,

Watching myriads of people and things,

All different and unique,

Singing their own songs,

In meter and rhythm different!

Watching and listening to all,

The different strokes,

The different colors,

The different tones!

So diverse and varied,

Like colorful blossoms in the garden!

All are different,

But are tied with the One,

The invisible thread,

The thread of Love,

The thread of God,

The thread of Humanity!

Appears Life like a glittering necklace,

Worn by the most amorous damsel – The Creation!

A necklace of countless glittering diamonds,

Sparkling with enchanting shimmer,

Each is unique, each is precious,

Each belonging to a different world,

A unique and unknown world of mysteries.

But then, all are strung into that One.

The One invisible thread,

The thread of Love,

The thread of God,

The thread of Humanity!

The differences is so overwhelming,

Distracting and disturbing,

That easily I miss out the Axis,

And get deluded in the maze of countless mirages,

Lost in the world of Maya,

Garbed by the emotions

Of righteousness, hatred, pain,

And countless separations!

Then from deep inside,

That Voice of Clarity,

Beautified in Love immense,

Calls up and dispensing the deafness,

Bringing light to the dark dungeon,

Lighting up everything around,

Showing to the eyes of my heart,

The hidden Thread of Unity,

The thread of Love,

The thread of God,

The thread of Humanity!

All of us are islands perennially alone -

Lonely souls in the Ocean of life.

But the Ocean embraces us all!

That One Intimate Ocean,

The Ocean of Love,
The Ocean of God,

The Ocean of Humanity!

We are all One,

Reflecting the same Unity,

In different forms and shapes,

In different colors and creed,

In different sounds and symphony!

I choose not to get stuck,

In people, things and events!

For they dis-integrate my inner self,

And distort my vision.

One-sighted am I to the binding Unity,

To the Love, God and Humanity!
