Devahuti - Ii Poem by C. P. Sharma

Transcendence

Meditation, the way to transcendence
Starts with the company of holy men
Chant His praise in earnest faith
As God, Allah, Shri Krishana,
Nanak, Buddha or Mahavir
Coz in human form you reach
Only from the known to the unknown
You might belong to any country
You might wear any dress
Irrespective of the situations
Following your faith
Sing songs of His praise
In any name or form
The lotus will bloom
This will divert your course
From body bondages to the soul
This is the initiating step

Next, conjecture Him
With divine beauty
From His feet to head
His each body part emitting
Radiance and fragrance
Enshrine Him in your mind
Empty the darkness
Illumine your mind with purity
In outlook and conduct
Establish a relationship
With Him as your father
Or as you brother,
Or as your son,
Or as you’re beloved
Dedicate to Him
With devotion and faith

You will see yourself in Him
And all universes
You will love all
Have charity for all
Hatred and violence towards none
Difference between Mandir, Maszid,
Church and Gurdwara disappears
A new life dawns
He protects and shields
A sense of unity in diversity
A feeling of freedom from bondages
An atmosphere of peace and harmony
A complete transcendence
Where diversity doesn’t torment.
