Chidananda, The Light Of Absolute Knowledge



Chidananda, the light of absolute knowledge
Those who understood,
Are free, realised souls:
Limitless, infinite,
Hundreds of hundreds of times
Intertwined are the ignorant
In the cycle of life and death

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Souren Mondal 20 October 2015

An interesting poem that remonded me of verses 6 and 7 from the Isa Upanishad that can be paraphrased thus: Those who are ignorant live in 'darkness' and those who have knowledge also live in 'darkness, but 'deeper'... Only through understanding the 'oneness' of all beings alike can one attain moksha trough their union with Bramhan..
