Asatoma satgamaya- poem by winnie panicker




Let the mind travel in tranquility
Into the deep woods of truth and innocence
Let it travel the yards and valleys
Of the unsaid facts and temperaments of the universe

Let the mind move in consciousness
Into the widest stream of existing delectation…
And let it surge the urge to find out
The true meaning of the existence of this world…

Let the mind see the lit lamps that glow
Glow at the nudeness of the corroding world
And try to erode the rust off the edges of human mind
Let it try to cluster the randomized thoughts into one…

Let the mind find ways to seize the mistakes
Of inner selves and bring into ‘Dharthi’
The sweeter melodies of caring the earth…
And softer ways of loving the nation…

Let the mind break the chains that bound the psyche
And help it to move in the path of righteousness
Let it stop the growing narrowness
And help oneself to move along wider paths of broadness…

Asatoma Satgamaya…
Tamasoma Jyotirgamaya
Mrityorma Amritam gamaya
Om santi santi santi…..
