Ahimsa 15 - A Path Of Pure Love - Sonnet

Rating: 5.0


Ahimsa is pure love that upholds the unity of myriad lives,
Lo! But disowns disintegration with cuts, breaks and quarrels,
Ahimsa is like a full blown lotus so beautiful,
Lo! But is not like a thorny, spiky plant dreadful,
Ahimsa is like a lamb innocent and harmless,
Lo! But is not like a jackal cunning and careless,
Ahimsa is like a saint who lives only to pray and evolve,
Lo! But is not like the devil who lives only to curse and dissolve,
Ahimsa is like the sun that shines bright,
Lo! But is not like the cloudy, dark night of fright,
Ahimsa is like the eternal heavenly tree
Lo! But is not like the twig that falls dead and free,
Ahimsa is ambrosia love pure,
Love that is unblemished, undying and rare!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
With this poem, I complete and conclude my series on Ahimsa.
All that is written have been imbibed from the spiritual texts as spoken and emphasised by the saints and sages of ancient India.
The principle of Ahimsa is as old as the hills.
I have written nothing new.
I have just put them into words in my own humble and simple way.

Verily, the good and bad exist in this world. The human beings are given a chance to separate the two through their intelligence and lead a noble life. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. Chinedu, you are truly blessed.
