PS: There is a level of consciousness in which solution precedes problem.And problem comes to give delight, which we get while solving some puzzle which's answer is already known

I believe in Gita and you too, ' Do thy duty, fruit is not thy concern.' If we have the patience, the fruit follows. Thank you for the invite. BR CP

I totally agree with C.P.Sharma..as we grow older and older our experiences account to preach that..even in normal family-life..no wonder the sage remains calm to realise the solution or fruit..nice poem10

The sages stay in the mountains to speak to nature and observe life...and to come up with a solution to some problems...however, they speak of wisdom all things still lies into our hand how we settle our own accounts. We are gifted with freewill and intellect to have the power to take our own path...10+++++++

Liked it immensely. When solutions come before problems I see them in prescience thoughts coming from music. It feels like a knowing that can't be disputed. It fascinates intellect's knowledge. It is very uplifting in spirit. Seeing answers to puzzles, formulas and equations as they form in poetry is amazing. Fantastic poem. Thank you for sharing your zen knowledge. RoseAnn

if there is a problem, there is a solution, it's just a matter of them finding each other at the right place and time (much like lovers?) ...
