New World Order Poem by rajagopal haran

Narrow notions of Religious Sovereignty
Not withstanding the universal interests
Freaks minding the distress of generations
Convene the commonwealth of religions
Keeping kingdom of God as the ultimatum
To avoid delays and disappointments
Aiming the dissolution of the old order
Protocol of Monarchy in the making
Religious colonialism has started consuming!

Hinduism boosting of its age
Claiming to be unique – no roots no clauses
Taking a closer look
Shaivism, Vaishnavism, Shaktism
Classified at all levels
With sampradaya and parampara spices to flavour
No animosity between the schools
Cross pollination of ideas
Anyone can cocktail making a common ground!

Christianity with limited timelines
Catered by Catholicism, Protestantism
Nestorianism, Eastern Orthodoxy and Oriental orthodoxy
Not being faith monolithic
Forming the majority worldwide
Historical schisms moderated by churches
Western and Eastern in methods of classification
Father and Son forming the majors
Crosses the barriers blessed by Mother Mary!

Islam in its earnestness
Aiming at One and the only One
Bridled by Sunni and Shia, Kharijite and Sufi!
Schools Fiqh and schools of Kalam
Making the Sunnism!
Twelvers and Ismailiyah intruding schism!
Ibadi and Sufri constituting Kharijite!
Bektashi, Chisti, Naqshbandi, Oveyssi
Qadiri, Suhrawardiyya complete Sufi!

To fill up the gaps Buddhism, Jainism
Sikhism, Judaism, Baha’ I faith
Confucianism and Shinto
Forming a part of listed groups!
Shamanism, Animism African traditional and Diasporic
Chinese traditional and North Korean Ideology
Cao Dai, Tenrikyo, Neopaganism
Unitarian-Universalism, Rastafarianism
Form the majors inside the unlisted!

Is there a combination- loyal or Royal?
Just convergence of beliefs on a cocoon base!
Are these a price for democratic living?
Growing appreciation of people’s differences!
Is Tolerance a virtue among human diversity?
All showing disparity
Between belief and practice
Trying to put everything in a nutshell
See the emergence of confusion in clarity!

Loads of blood drenching the earth
Sound of bullets submerged in the canon’s shelling
Student striking in the eyes of his friend
Classmates killing another mate for a pen
Nowhere I see an atheist against theist!
Mixing the postulates derived from the paths of
Believers of the Almighty, an invisible entity
And churning the chunk to get the essence
I get the cream- Love is its name seated next to God-
Difficult to see!
