Man has been a subject to ignorance for eons
And his ignorance is more often driven by his vanity.
Everyone tries to be superior to the other
And this desire is the root cause of all disdain.
Our material pursuits
Make it overwhelmingly difficult
To realise the true essence of life.
We fail to contemplate upon our actions
And end up in our foolish pretensions
Of worldly possessions.
This world of illusions
And wretched deceptions,
Compel our innocent souls
To enter upon several delusions
And get entangled in this web
Of desire and consequential vicious cycle.
We tend to ignore the very voice
Of our beneficent conscience.
Silence follows the benignant beckoning.
The silence denotes the very presence
Of an ignorant self and self-proclaimed notions
About one’s thoughts, ideas and emotions.
The husky fiend shrouds the truth
And enters upon as a friend
To play gimmickry with our ignorant self.
But your inner soul doesn’t leave you
It still resides within you.
It just waits for the right occasions
To ring the bell and warn you.
But the spright is a better friend now
And you keep ignoring the harsh beckoning.
But some day or the other,
You will unravel the truth.
But it’ll be too late for you
To dispense with
The services of ignorance.
So, awake my friend
And awake thy soul,
To see the truth and embrace it.
