The Vision Of Liberation Poem by Subrata Ray

The Vision Of Liberation.

In a chasm of rippling riddles,
I paddle and paddle on,
No harbour no destination,
But dismayed shadows prevail.

I behold a thick screen,
Between my apparent me and the real,
With a little whole that sparks a ray of light,
And shows a glimpse of my own Self.
I laboured under frantic impression,
To make the whole big to bigger,
And gave myself to washout the memories.

Day in and day out life after life elapsed,
The screen turned thin to thinner,
And the whole expanded and vanished.

My Being felt liberation,
The miracle of the miracles came true,
The mirage of inert-mind was next to nothing,
The wisdom of life bloomed as non-attached Love.

N.B
The present poem -The Vision Of Liberation, comes up from the teaching of Swami Vivekananda on Vedanta and its scientific realization in human life. It speaks of the apparent world covered by Maya and the real world of Atman or Brahman.Again Swami Vivekananda renders the teaching of His spiritual Master Sri Ramakrishna. Here the human beings find the grandest truth of salvation.
