When All Suns Set... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

'When all suns set all visions go blind,
All moons recede all thirsts vanish,
When fires settle, pangs of hunger subside,
When all lightning fades, lust perish,
When waters freeze infertile go,
All thunders sink, voice retreat
When skies all shrink, senses squeezed,
All winds go still, breaths released,
O, Enlightened Sage! Tell me, please
Where this Soul goes, where abides! '

'He sees through the light, conceived within
breathes the vacuum,
concealed within
speaks through the silence,
kept within-
he sleeps in shadows- alien

Darkness- his shade,
he rests in peace
abides in Death,
you learn, O King! '
