An Ascetic's Tragedy

An Ascetic's Tragedy

1 min

Antaryami can't love any woman now;

Beautiful women approach him 

To gift him with their beauty and youth;

But the poor fellow can't love any of them,

Nor does he love his friends as previously he did;

There was a time he had suspected his Guru 

Of having clandestine affairs with women;

The omniscient Guru was too kind 

To harbour any grudges against him;

Now Antaryami sheds tears of remorse 

And gratitude having understood the truth;

There were nothing outside him;


Having lost all sense of dualism 

He is crying like a child;

Because centuries of dualistic concerns 

And dualistic conceptions 

Are no more alive;

All his enemies are inside him;

All the attractions and temptations

Of the world 

Are asleep inside him;

"O my God what's this? 

Take it back and let me enjoy,

Let me enjoy some worldly pleasures."

But that is no way possible;

He musters strength

And enters his state of Advaita 

And drinks the syrupy nectar of Advaita 

That makes him forget the world 

And its transitory pleasures;

From inside the Guru says;

"Sonny it will take some time

To become fixed in that Oneness;

That is the naked Truth.
