The Wise Poem by Gajanan Mishra

I know
You are the wise
I know you give up
All actions
Prompted by desire.

I know
You are learned
I know you declared
The abandonment of fruits
As renunciation.

I know
You are a philosopher
You consider all actions
As evil and you have
Given up all.

I hear
The acts of sacrifice
And charity and
Penance are not
To be given up.

What I heard
That seems right my dear
I am a man and I live in society
And I see all
At par with me.
