Flame Up The Lamps
Light/Lamp Perception
Moving skyward the oil lamp lit by a damsel dear
Effulgent glow mesmerizing, fed with Pancha deepa
Set in polished brass, shimmering, gold coloured
The warmth, luminescence spreading up, around
Unseen aura perforating the air, the atmosphere all.
Reaching inwards the warm glow, calm invigorates
capturing the dispersant mind, physical and subtle -
Sukshma Sarira in its entirety, energizing the Prana
Sparking the Jyoti emanating softly from Jiwa Atma
Blissful being full in knowledge emerges, milk pure.
Downward moving, aberrant, incandescent lighting
It's radiance blinds, our perception turned outwards
Thoughts scatter, aimless become, our focus amiss
In pursuit of objects, sensual wants, in a visual grip.
