The Secret Of Chidambaram Poem by Jagannath rao Adukuri

Nothing is clear, nothing whatsoever
What is deep inside the cosmic-embryo
Remains buried under consciousness
Where lies the tantalizing secret
As warm tears well up in the eyes
Imposing stone archways open one by one
The fog-screens fizzle down slowly
Only to reveal the ether of nothing
The Chidambara secret slowly unfolds
In the vaulting dome of a nothing-sky
As the primordial God dances in rapture
Whom neither fire singes nor poison burns
A yellow flame flickers amid pealing bells
Under a golden dome over empty space
It is the empty space that defies Time
Then three thousand God’s men flash across time
Their bejewelled women step out of the dome
With the flame of knowledge between their brows
And silver music on their dancing anklets.
