C. P. Sharma - Know thyself

Keshav in Gita about karma makes clear,
So long doer, we are in death-birth gear;
Surrendering all actions, with Him we unite
We rise above the body for eternal flight.

The illusion of triangle in us disappears,
A free consciousness moves in all spheres;
Tsunamis don't distress, storms don't tear,
You can always smile as Keshav's peer.

Storms and cyclones become rocking cradle,
On thunder and lightening be Muse’s saddle;
The ticking of time doesn’t torment,
Seated on lotus you spray your scent.

O dear this Truth not so easy to digest
You realize it only when you r blessed.

* In response to Kesav Venkat Easwaran’s poem ‘Beyond Human Reach’
