When Silence Speaks
It is said that after attaining the realization, Meher Baba, the Indian Spiritual Master never uttered a single world through out his life. It is because he felt that God never be told through word. Similarly many Spiritual Masters also believed that God never be described through word. However they have tried to explain God to their disciples through word. This Poem is reflecting an event which occurred in the Life of Lord Buddha and his disciple MAHAKASHYAPA. Lord Buddha revealed the ultimate wisdom to his disciple Mahakashyap in complete silence. This poem is based on this event, highlighting this aspect that ultimate wisdom can be conveyed only in complete silence. One has to be capable enough to receive the message when An enlighten Master speaks through his silence.
Once Buddha came, with beautiful rose,
and sat under shadow of, tree he chose.
Then Looked at disciples, sitting around,
to listen the master and hear his sound.
Hours were passed, he didn't speak,
as if ignorant to answers they seek.
Keeping the queries, their worries at bay.
Lord Buddha smiled , had nothing to say.
All gone tizzy had, questions to ask,
but questioning Buddha,a difficult task.
and master enjoying the ultimate bliss,
Looking at flower and resting in peace.
Though body still and not any sound,
mind was restless & running around.
Waited & waited they,sat on the ground,
All of a sudden one, laughter they found.
This was Mahakashyap,touching his feet,
O Master so humble ,so gentle so sweet.
Buddha behold him with gentle gaze,
And gave him flower,removing his daze.
Destroyed illusion you, cleared my haze,
Disciple was singing,aloud in his praise.
While sitting on ground and giving me rose,
O Buddha you flowed in my heart so close.
Shown me the horse & shown me to ride,
now nothing remaining, for you to guide.
If still to explain and, something to say,
One thing but certain,all miss the way.
Revealed in silence that cannot be said,
wisdom through mouth seldom conveyed.
If one is ready ,when silence speaks,
Then truth is his , ignorance retreats.

Heart of a Women
You may caress her leg,
Hug her, Kiss her,
hold her tight.
You may Smooch ,
Press her waist,
Whole of her naked body ,
may be in your sight.
You may kiss her lips,
Bare Breast, Bare thigh,
Bare back,Bare body,
May also sense her sigh.
You may touch her ear,
Eyes, navel , nose,
Everything,
But until you know her heart,
You know nothing.

Temptation
Once in a while,
in a beautiful plain,
When I was roaming ,
Then It has happened.
Surrounded by many,
and reading the hand,
Surprisingly I found,
my astrologer friend.
Seeking opinion of ,
friend or a foe,
Was anti to my,
self respect, ego.
But such was desire,
i could not resist ,
From knowing my future,
and showing my hand.
