Emerson's Brahma Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

There is something which but he transcends,
Going after Brahma, Brahman and Brahmin,
Which is whose domain
Is the thing of perusal.

Brahman is in you, in me too,
A part of the same within us
Which but realize we it not
That the same flame in us.

The Greater Brahma, the smaller Brahma,
Man a part of the latter,
But Brahma is Brahma
And Brahma the Creator, one among the Trinity.

The valiant Rajputa too cannot conquer
The unconquerable
Which the swo0rd cannot subdue
The soul within.

The Brahmin who prays to may not attain
The same height
Which but one may approaching
With utter humility and devotion.

Brahma is Brahma, Brahma's creation
Adding to the Trinity
With Brahma, Vishnu, Maheshvara.

But if Brahma is Creational,
Indra and Varuna too have a role to play in
From the archetypal point of view.
