Ontology Of The World Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Ontology Of The World

Rating: 3.0


A face is seen in a mirror;
A face looks in a photograph.
You see a face in a movie.
They are reflections of someone.
Reflections are exact in looks
But not real, and also not false.
No refection without objects;
Reflection and object connects;

Objects are inferred from reflections.
Relations between these two
Is the relation that exists
Between the universe and Shiva.
The whole world is the reflection
Of Supreme consciousness, Shiva,
Who reflects himself in the world.
Kashmir Shaivism profounds thus.

(Bimba and Pratibimba relation)

Rm. does that mean there is no Supreme Consciousness without objects?
