Somanathan Iyer - Concepts 23

Comparison is the cause for all conflicts in the minds
Expectation is the cause for all worries that are endless
Attachment is the cause for all sins that get accumulated
Blinded is the human mind by impacts of the mysterious illusion

A single piece of cloud can never cause a flood
A single lion can never chase a herd of elephants
A single failure can never change the destiny
A single word of offence can certainly ruin the relationship

Many are the ideas yet origin is the mind
Many are the waves yet origin is the sea
Many are the stars yet origin is the sky
Many are the creations but origin is the God

Liquor and lust both are intoxicants
Money and power both are intoxicants
Greed and woman both are intoxicants
Wisdom and illusion dangle between all the above

Expect not respect by seeking help of goons and frauds
Expect not honor by drilling holes in rule of law
Expect not admiration by breaching trust of one and all
Expect an everlasting pleasure by helping people in times of need

Efforts without goal end only in exhaustion
Offence without defense end only with debacle
knowledge without substance always remain ornamental
prayers without dedication hardly fetch the grace of God
