  Pretentious Acts

  When you pose richer than you are

  Or poorer than poor that you are,

  You attempt to tilt your ego.

  To be humbler is ego’s pride.

  Jan., 2013

  Time Spares None.

  However glorious they are,

  Eras have to pass by.

  However splendid they are,

  People have to pass by.

  However captive they are,

  Beauties have to pass by.

  However lively it is,

  The youth has to pass by.

  Time spares none;

  none wants to know it.

  Jan., 2013

  Encumbrance

  Confidence is the seed of arrogance.

  Diplomacy is a kind of conspiracy.

  Mercy is the dilution of justice.

  Existence is an encumbrance.

  The Effect Of The Entropy

  The entropy is an accepted law,

  By which things move from order to disorder.

  Time follows from order to disorder.

  The universe is towards disorder.

  Nonliving matter at the low level

  Stops with forming minor molecules.

  Living matter forms macro molecules

  Which grow into many organelles.

  Unicellular to multicellular

  And to multi-organ, living matter

  Is getting perfect by evolution.

  Living things go from disorder to order.

  The earth is set to move to entropy.

  Living matter is set to act against it.

  The growing population is resting on

  The weakening system of the earth.

  Matter is condensation of energy.

  Energy is liberation of matter.

  Both are converting into each other,

  Which happen under certain influence.

  Every conversion makes an impact.

  Every impact affects for conversion.

  Thus the influence is sustained throughout.

  Fire can be alive till matter is burnt.

  The Soul Clothes The Body.

  Soul is the formless life-force

  Which runs trough animated things.

  Soul builds the body and

  Experiences the body.

  Body does not hold soul and

  Does not experience soul.

  The soul feels about the body

  As the body feels about the clothes.

  Anomaly In Responses

  People, who witness the rivals’ talents,

  Have eyes to wonder and lacks tongues to praise.

  People, who witness the masters’ power,

  Have lips to praise and lack hearts to wonder.

  Prejudices By Birth

  Because a pony defeated a horse

  In races for a great number of times,

  That will not make the horse less handsome or

  The pony more so unless the pony

  Gets fair skin, thick mane and high neigh as well.

  Prejudices born of breed hardly die.

  Morals Are Scripted.

  Morals are scripted by the weak and the old

  Collectively in the name of the God

  To curb the energies of the strong and the young

  Severally so that they could sail safely.

  Apr., 2013

  To Give, And To Get, Birth

  Is giving a birth unloading or bearing?

  Is getting a birth gaining or suffering?

  A child would forgo receiving kisses

  If each kiss is followed by a pinch.

  A lad would refrain from kissing his girl

  If each kiss is rewarded with a slap.

  One might want to avoid giving birth,

  For the burden that comes from happiness.

  One might want to escape getting rebirth

  For the suffering that comes from happiness.

  Lust for sex is a bait to get young ones.

  Births withheld, baits are chewed, for fear of pain.

  The drive for procreation is dying.

  To be free of rebirth can be achieved.

  May., 2013

  Seek An Exact Mirror.

  You can look exact, bigger or smaller.

  You can look fatter, thinner or crooked.

  It depends on the mirror you look at.

  Others’ opinions are your mirrors.

  Only Man Is Agitated.

  Species go extinct;

  Languages go extinct;

  So do religions.

  Rites and customs die;

  Names and monuments fall;

  Cultures too crumble.

  Races go extinct;

  Dynasties go extinct;

  So do continents.

  Plants aren’t bothered.

  Animals aren’t bothered.

  Man is agitated.

  God’s Role Is Limited.

  Growth of skills is the growth of life.

  Growth of life is evolution.

  Skills to capture the prey grow.

  Skills to escape from the claws grow.

  Aggression and resistance fight.

  Skills strengthen certain organs,

  That reflect in the evolution.

  The growth of the individual

  Fails before the growth of life,

  With the God’s role limited

  Like that of a Referee.

  Efforts To Effortlessness

  To learn bicycling demands an effort.

  The learning might cause pain and discomforts.

  Learning over, cycling will become effortless.

  Exert yourself and learn as much as you can.

  Inadequate learning will drag your legs down.

  Efforts lead to a state of effortlessness.

  May, 2013

  Love And Beauty

  You and I love peacocks.

  Peacocks love peahens.

  Peahens love their chicks.

  What are love’s criteria?

  To you and I, a cock is a beauty.

  To a cock, a hen is a beauty.

  To a hen, her chicks are beauties.

  What are beauty’s criteria?

  Death Is Dreaded.

  Death is most dreaded

  Because there is no

  Feedback and knowledge

  One gets after death.

  The Soul Is Single

  Have you got a soul in you?

  If so, when did you get it?

  At the time of birth?

  In the course of pregnancy?

  During conception? No;

  Ere conception was there life

  In the daughter cells

  Sent for fusion of gametes

  By the male and the female.

  Jeevatma (soul) the individual soul,

  Enters not at birth

  And leaves not at death

 
; In an individual.

  The soul is only one,

  Uncountable, and runs

  Through all organisms,

  Which are branches

  given out by evolution.

  No life can be evolved

  Without continuity.

  No life is lost in death.

  No life is come in birth

  Vanity Of The Breed

  A few yards before and a few after

  And a few hours ahead and a few past,

  What befalls is the matter of concern

  To a traveler who makes a journey.

  Only immediate ancestry

  And immediate progeny

  Are the matters of concern in one’s life.

  Vanity of breed is meaningless.

  May, 2013

  Ripple Effects

  Ripple effects are the causes

  Of all actions and all motions,

  That include reactions as well.

  No single cause for an effect;

  No single effect for a cause;

  Causes and effects are a chain,

  Expanding, fading and resting.

  The change stands as the permanence.

  Time is the swallower of changes.

  To blame some and to hail some are

  According to our convenience.

  Karma Is A Hypothesis.

  No event will occur without a cause.

  The law of cause and effect is the one

  That governs all phenomena present.

  To this law obey all forces of nature.

  Under the sway of law of causation,

  There is no room for accident or chance.

  Chances and accidents are the products

  Of some causes beyond our faculty.

  Karma theory is born of this law.

  One falls on its next, which falls on its next

  And thus the effect passes on and on

  And affects the one from whom it took off.

  Karma theory is a hypothesis.

  Yet it is a powerful weapon to wage

  Against wrong doings in most religions.

  Let us believe it and behave well.

  Ego Is Fed.

  By mere age, on those still younger,

  By mere skin, on those still darker,

  And by one’s stage, on those lower,

  One looks down to feed one’s ego.

  Darkness Is God.
