Transcendental Poems
I saw the many splendored One
Of Unthinkable Form, The Primal Poet.
Of the lustre of a myriad Suns
The All Knower, the Causeless Cause !
He is resplendent with Sixteen Divine Graces
And resembles the orb of the Autumn Moon
And incorporates Fame, Prosperity, Valour
Abundance, Knowledge & Wisdom.
These Six Virtues are known as Bhaga
These Six Attributes He personifies
And incorporates the highest Wisdom, Love
Hence he is called Bhagavan !
Cosmic Mind is the Lord !
Absolute Brahman becomes Cosmic Mind
Mind is lord of Creation
This world is His Thought, the Logos !
Mind attains peace
By meditating on Unity
Unity alone is Reality
All duality is Illusion !
Dissolve the mind
By knowing its nature
Self fills Universe
Being formless, nameless !
The Sun of Self Realisation !
The Sun of Self-Realisation shines brilliant
In the infinite Sky of Consciousness
Known in Yoga as Chit Akasha,
The Sky of Consciousness of the Heart !
The Self is always Itself
And other than its becomings !
Being is proof of Itself,
As if he Ultimate Verity needs prof !
IT is the Sole Witness Conciousness
Which witnesseth all !
All it sees
It is all that sees !
Shed the Ego !
Shed the Ego
Be freed from the sense of ‘Mine”
It is Ego-Identification
Which is the cause of all Sorrow.
Ego is up in arms
Against the sublunar world !
Ego is a fighter
Fighting with all.
It is all a fight against all !
Ego’s stance is like this
My head is bloody, but unbowed
Under the hammering received.
From Chance and Circumstance !
Shed the Ego and be happy !
It is the Ego which clouds happiness
As Mind veils Reality !
Calmness is Bliss Itself !
I bow down to That Calmness
Which is Bliss itself by nature !
The Birthless, the Absolute, the Alone
Which alone exist in se.
All worldly objects attained
Cannot confer Bliss
Bliss is the nature of Self
Be one with It and enjoy !
Universe is Consciousness
In Reality a Nothingness
The Immutable Self
Is ever verily attained !
Unattached is he !
Unattached is he
Even though he acts
Joy and misery are mere
Bipolarities of Mind !
Birth and death
Result of past actions
He has nothing to accomplish
And is free in action !
He who knows that everything is He
The Self that pervades all
Becomes peaceful indeed
Of the nature of Wisdom Pure !
Some Glorious Quotes
Humanity’s grandest concept, said Maugham
Is the concept of the Absolute !
Its discoverer was Hegel,
One of Germany’s greatest !
Another German great, Kant,
Discovered that Space, Time and Causality
Are Modes of Thought,
Projections of Mind !
But Vedanta knew this along ago
And called it Maya, Delusion Cosmic ,
Universal Mind which projects
Jagat, Jiva and Para holographically !!
The English sense has toiled
But Hindu Wisdom never perspires,
Averred Thoreau, author of Walden,
Another trancendental poet.
Whose fame spread worldwide,.
Whose Eighteen Chapters were modelled,
After the Eighteen Chapters of the Gita,
And the Eighteen Parvas of the Maha Bharata !
By Govind Kumar
