Riddle of Life & Death................... Dare to solve then dare to be
"The key to life and death is everywhere to be found, but if you do not find it in your own house, you will find it nowhere. Yet, it is before everyone's eyes; no one can live without it; everyone has used it. The poor usually possess more of it than the rich; children play with it in the streets. The meek and uneducated esteem it highly, but the privileged and learned often throw it away. When rejected, it lies dormant in the bowels of the earth. It is the only thing from which the Philosopher's Stone can be prepared, and without it, no noble metal can ever be created."
What is it ? ......................................................................... If you know it, you are a mystic.
Nor I point you the North -East
By disclosing the flow of necter
Ra is Radha barmy loose me
Drown in nectar of moniker
Smell hear see all but nothing
Hug hum to become hum
Touch radiance and rapt in
You befall to single to befit
What is it ? ......................................................................... If you know it, you are a yogi.
A godlike man, a yogi, sadhaka is one,
Who feels another’s pain
Who shares another’s sorrow,
And pride does disdain.
Who regards himself as the lowliest of the low,
Speaks not a word of evil against any one
One who keeps himself steadfast in words, body and mind,
Blessed is the mother who gives birth to such a son.
Who looks upon everyone as his equal and has renounced lust,
And who honours women like he honours his mother
Whose tongue knows not the taste of falsehood till his last breath,
Nor covets another’s worldly goods.
He does not desire worldly things,
For he treads the path of renunciation
Ever on his lips is Rama’s holy name,
All places of pilgrimage are within him.
One who is not greedy and deceitful,
And has conquered lust and anger
Through such a man Saints have a godly vision,
Generations to come, of such a man, will attain salvation
