Extra Power Shown Is Magic. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Spirituality is associated
With acquiring some extra power
To predict future and cures disease,
And to be a beckon to the people.

The Hindu traditions recognize this.
Mythologies, Histories and epics
Have projected many human characters
With supernatural power to stand high.

Saints and seers the people had become,
With dedication and propitiation
To the personal gods, spread over time,
And acquired power; thus goes the story.

Spirituality is no way connected
To attaining supernatural power.
Detachment, meditation and virtue
Are the path to tread towards spirituality.
