A child asked, “Who are you? ”
I said, “I am -.”
But who really are you?
No body knows, even you do not know,
A human shaped shadow, fluttering on the earth.
You are what you are-;
The mind, the body, the life and the actions;
That you run as your whole complete system,
An illusion, nothing more nothing less.
Uniquely Lord Brahma, the Creator,
Has designed everybody differently.
What you are, is only you are;
You choose, as you feel the best,
Nothing you think, you loose.
Your life is your ‘mind control’,
Residing in your body,
Moving with the immortal soul.
But the question of the child remained unanswered,
Who are you?
Only the Trinity, Lord Brahma, the Creator;
Lord Vishnu, the preserver and Lord Mahesh, the destroyer,
Has the answer, “Who are you? ”
