Almighty-Anirrationalrationality Poem by Om Chawla

Almighty-Anirrationalrationality

Rating: 5.0


I often wonder,
how this Universe came to be?
Who is this Almighty?
Where did It exist?
How space came to be?

Limitless in cosmic terminology;
Did space exist in void, but how?
Space is primary for void to be.
Space in void, void sans space,
crazy it sounds to be.

Universe: A creation or a manifestation
of whom, from where and with what intention:
creation a desired emergence or an evolution;
a primal existence or simply an eruption
of energy, a happening might;
devoid of consciousness,
bereft of reasoning,
beyond rationality,
a riddle compounded with mystery of life.

From where comes the soul;
where does it go;
infuses life yet is not felt;
deserts the body inanimate:
unseen unperceived though:
so ends the life in every species.
Why so different are then species?

Of millions of species one is human,
endowed with smile and laughter
millions of species feeding on each other.

It's not fair, it's not just,
it's not Godly, it cannot be.
God Almighty, where is he!

God a human illusion,
to sustain our delusion,
devoid of justness
an omnipotent irrationality.
Still we need It,
Almighty we term It,
to ease our minds and to seek
solutions to our perplexities.
Solutions won't come somehow we know,
yet still in reverence our heads we bow
before God Almighty,
an irrational rationality;
else the world would mental asylum be.

A very great write indeed. We as humans will always seek answers to our most important questions. One thing that we do know is that our existence would be impossible without love. Yes the world is plagued with problems. We must overcome it with love for God is love. An inspiring and thought provoking write. Excellent!

To get answer of these questions scientifically please read Bhagavat Gita,9: 11 and 18: 61 slokas.

When answers to these questions are hard to find, better not rake our brain! Universe is indeed a riddle compounded with mystery of life! God may be an irrational rationality, but as you have put it, without God the Almighty, the world will be a mental asylum! The questions you have raised are questions that have been plaguing all thinking minds since time immemorial ! ! A GREAT write! !
