Living Life Sans Pleasure Is A Big Waste! Poem by Ramesh T A

Living life without enjoying any pleasure is a saintly life;
Just doing duty with or without interest is a drudgery long,
If one does against one's desire but to fulfil one's destiny!

Everyone is born in this world to get knowledge of all things,
Do duty based on knowledge, enjoy all pleasures and spend rest
Of life in spiritual pursuits high relinquishing all to all..!

Knowledge and duty being fulfilled, it's time for pleasure to
Have relaxation so as to proceed with other chores to finish
One's assignments well next and keep oneself ready to go high!

Enjoying physical pleasure in accordance with the desire of heart,
Intellectually exploring truth according to the zeal of mind and
Mystically enjoying spiritual bliss in Nature one gets fulfilment!

Sans doing duty according to one's nature and enjoying all pleasures,
Nothing worthwhile can be explored and achievements made in life!
