Total Freedom Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

Total Freedom

Rating: 5.0


In absolute oblivion
With nature and the forces of existence
Into play
Thousands years of history
Written
Some relics and the forgotten one
Gods word or the wise mans talk
Deriving meaning from the stars
Sun and the moon
Goddesses and deities
The great abstraction

In the realm of thought
Freedom remains the desire
Freedom from the bonds of the humanity
Freedom from all wants
Freedom from the will of others
Imposed or perpetuated
Freedom from ideas
In the name of social consciousness
In the collective realm of the society
Of life and death
Life in community
A dream sought after
The breaking of shackles
Of ideas and the iron chain
The evolutionist’s theory of having attained modernity
The matrix of life stuck between falsehood and reality
With great illusions

Get into the realm of total freedom
Away from the connections and strings
Whose other ends are controlled in places distant
Out from the mischief of the fate defined as luck
Make death the ultimate inspiration
Whirling into circles for the last freedom
That too is another thread of making the other being
As a final destiny of union

Unite with thyself
Leave alone all the philosophies and doctrines
Religions and beliefs
Hold the wine cup of total freedom
All alone
Without any god or fate
Discover for thyself
The ultimate truth
Enter total freedom
From self to self
Leave the saki
Drunk with the wine of total freedom
Declare it to the world
For the god to listen
For the wise to ponder
Let the angels sing into your ears
Let the beauties of paradise
Dance in front of you
In
Total freedom

I love the message here and the celestial spin, it's very other-worldly in parts. I remember the lines in song once which said 'Poor is the man whose pleasure depends on the permission of another'... I guess that's where we find our real freedom, to choose what our soul wishes. HG: -) xx

yes...everything has to come from within...once that happens, do we need god or wise men or saki or the wine...?

A philosophical write in length and a meaningful one each line is a chapter from life's vast thesis. Isthere really a produce called total freedom from life? ....... I liked this write for its substance. A very good one..10+ Rema
