Mahadev Poem by Govind Ramakrishnan

Mahadev



He
For whom
All objects in this universe
Are merely a projection
Of pure consciousness,
Who willingly consumes
The poison of human desires,
And grants each true seeker
The elixir of immortality,
I offer one bilva leaf
With all my love....

Even science is only a play of pure consciousness, Nothing except this awareness exists. It is the light by which even sunlight is perceived. Thanks for your comment.

Albeit Jewish, we have studied the great Kashmir shaivite tradition and have a deep understanding of the significance of Mahadev. Your poem is excellent and rooted in the philosophy of the great sages of that tradition. Well done Govind!
