Silence

Lord Buddha revealed the ultimate wisdom to his disciple Mahakashyap in complete silence. This poem is based on this event,  highlighting this aspect that ultimate wisdom can be conveyed only in complete silence. One has to be capable enough to receive the message when An enlighten Master speaks through his silence.

Once Buddha came, with beautiful rose,

and sat under shadow of, tree he chose.

Then Looked at disciples, sitting around,

to listen the master and hear his sound.

Hours were passed, he didn't speak,

as if  ignorant to answers they seek.

Keeping the queries, their worries at bay.

Lord Buddha smiled , had nothing to say.

All gone tizzy had, questions to ask,

but questioning Buddha,a difficult task.

and master enjoying the ultimate bliss,

Looking at flower and resting in peace.

Though body still and not any sound,

mind was restless & running around.

Waited & waited they,sat on the ground,

All of a sudden one, laughter they found.

This was Mahakashyap,touching his feet,

O Master so humble ,so gentle so sweet.

Buddha behold  him with gentle gaze,

And gave him flower,removing his daze.

Destroyed illusion you, cleared my haze,

Disciple was singing,aloud in his praise. 

While sitting on ground and giving me rose,

O Buddha you flowed in my heart so close.

Shown me the horse & shown me to ride,

now nothing remaining, for you to guide.

If still to explain and, something to say,

One thing but certain,all  miss the way.

Revealed in silence that cannot be said,

wisdom through mouth seldom conveyed. 

If one is ready ,when  silence speaks,

Then truth is his , ignorance retreats.

THIS POEM DESCRIBES THE ELATED STATE OF MIND OF POET, WHERE THE POET IS FREE FROM ALL THE HUMANLY VICES AND HE IS UNITED WITH UNIVERSAL SOUL.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here and nothing is hue & cry.

Heart my got broken ,  knavery when played they all.

I also did some trick, waggery did, made them fall.

Soul my knocks now, and making me feel shy.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

I was fragile , shaky, and suffering over last.

Used to compete with them, whosoever growing fast.

Now that fear is over,  seldom  now I vie.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

I let them laugh at me,  who having envious heart.

I let them mock at me,  am accepting odious tart.

Malice brings no peace in me,  not making such a try.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

Wrong which they done to me,  all have forgotten now,

Only thing which yearn now, help all but when and how.

In the land of hatred me,  sowing peace and multiply.

Diving I am deep into  ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

Was bursting volcano then,  now flowing river is me ,

Heat of that summer over,  clouds pouring rains in me.

Dirt of soul gone now, bade the evil good bye.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

Venom of hatred receded,  jealously no bitterness,

Longing to assist someone, is there so eagerness.

Sipping now drop of love, peace in me glorify.

Diving I am deep into ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

Light of wisdom arrived, Night of ignorance gone.

All my grief ended, joy in life has come.

Riding at the peak of virtue,  now I am flying high.

Diving I am deep into, ocean of bliss O' thy,

Now no conflict here, and nothing is hue & cry.

Now only truth here , no place for any lie.

Diving I am deep into  ocean of bliss O' thy.
