Just open the computer and connect to the internet.
Anyone can call anybody, anywhere in a moment!
Science and technology so far to my astonishment,
Have found no way to link at once Self the innermost!
Human mind penetrates earth to find boiling lava!
Travels far and wide in sky to locate whirling nebula!
Will it tell me a way to strip off ego, masking Atma,
As I have piled upon me costumes of life’s opera?
Microscopic tools are there to see infinitesimal cell.
Prominent telescopes are there to study stars as well.
In my body, where do unseen feelings exactly dwell?
Is there a device to locate and purge my thoughts all? 120308
Comments on comments: To my dear readers:
It is well known that Soul can not be sought out. One who is in search of the inner Soul will definitely come to know all external search which humanity has termed as science and technology will not help even a bit to find the Soul. In fact all our knowledge about the world are really hindrances in the search. Even our five senses and the very ingenious mind also will hinder in the search. This is what I convey in my poem.
Next, mind is a bundle of thoughts. Body is picture of that mind. If one wants to ‘see’ the Soul one should go beyond body and mind. This process definitely will take us to realization. There is no fear of becoming lunatic person, as everyone thinks. Ramana Mahrishi is a great example to this. He told, ‘I do not have thoughts, yet I do all worldly karmas with at most care! ’
