Pilgrimage. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

Pilgrimage for devotion
To self awareness, love and compassion
To know oneself, the intuitive self
Pilgrims have great positiveness
About life and its challenges
Facing the consequences of actions.

Pilgrims restrained in luxuries
Minimum of needs to accomplish
Fear, greed, jealousy, never comes
The world they live is universal in thoughts.

Truth, non violence, kindness to others
A great thoughts on pilgrimage
A hazardous task but interesting
The resultant peace of mind it gives.

Pilgrim centers, whatever name we believes
Cleanliness vital and important
Discipline, in all spirits of goodness
A great opportunity to corrective thoughts.

The life itself is in preparation
For a long journey of pilgrimage
But destination far away and ways not known
The rules are mandatory and to abide
Where disparities never come as obstruction.
