A Confluence Of Trinity! Poem by Ramesh T A

At noon reaching Kanyakumari they purchased

The tickets for boarding the barge to cross the sea

From the main land to the Rock of Vivekananda Hall.

The barge left for the Vivekananda Mandapam via

The Rock of 133 feet statue of Thiruvalluvar,

The poet of 1330 couplets of Thrikkural telling

Mankind how human life has to be lived in the world!

The imposing statue of Swami Vivekananda inspires

The soul of every individual to aspire high in life!

“Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is reached! ”

Are the golden words of Vivekananda for all Indians.

Yes, the up gradation of human soul is the essence of

Indian philosophy incorporated in the Hindu religion

For all to follow not only in India but also in all nations!

With those thoughts they visited the book stall and

Meditated for sometime in the Meditation Hall there.

Darwin says that man has evolved from animal

But Indian sages say that divinity evolves in man.

That acme of man can be achieved by rationality

And strong will as both animal and divine aspects

Are part and parcel of human nature in the world.

Coming out of the Mandapam, walked they to the lobby

To see the three seas embracing the peninsula of India!

Sea and Sky saw they and became speechless and silent

Before the eternal splendour and grandeur of Nature!

In different angles they took photos of

The emerald green Bengal Sea

And the Azure blue Arabian Sea

Mingling with the milky ocean of India!

Unless some earthquake shakes the status of Himalayas

And the geographical features of Nature in India

The depiction of divinities of Indian Classical literature

Can never be destroyed or forgotten by the world men!

Perhaps mythically a dropp of the Milky Way of the Universe

Might have settled down as the snow cap on Himalayas,

The legendary abode of Lord Siva as depicted in Classics

And the trickling down of the holy rivers of Ganges and Indus

Mixing with the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea has finally

Mingled with the milky Ocean of India, the abode of Vishnu!

Hence pilgrims take dip in the Ganges and Kanyakumari Sea!
