Ahimsa is pure love that upholds the unity of myriad lives,
Lo! But disowns disintegration with cuts, breaks and quarrels,
Ahimsa is like a full blown lotus so beautiful,
Lo! But is not like a thorny, spiky plant dreadful,
Ahimsa is like a lamb innocent and harmless,
Lo! But is not like a jackal cunning and careless,
Ahimsa is like a saint who lives only to pray and evolve,
Lo! But is not like the devil who lives only to curse and dissolve,
Ahimsa is like the sun that shines bright,
Lo! But is not like the cloudy, dark night of fright,
Ahimsa is like the eternal heavenly tree
Lo! But is not like the twig that falls dead and free,
Ahimsa is ambrosia love pure,
Love that is unblemished, undying and rare!
I love the way you juxtaposed the good and the bad - it served well to capture the essence of Ahimsa. Thanks for this inspirational fragrance, and do remain blessed.
Verily, the good and bad exist in this world. The human beings are given a chance to separate the two through their intelligence and lead a noble life. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. Chinedu, you are truly blessed.
