T HE FASCINATION----DR.K.G.BALAKRISHNAN
The sea roaring shadowing
My ambition, lengthening
To the doom, setting the grief
Fathomless, bubbling boiling
Foaming steaming bewildering!
The Silence virtual measureless;
The Dilemma ambiguous naïve!
The Junction of sorrowing streams
Becoming the holy Manasasaras
Where the fragrant Lotus does blossom
To be the Beauty ecstatic the Bliss sublime!
The churned, the love-hymn chanted;
The Amrita-the nectar of immortality-
Thus transcended; the kiss sanctum
The Essence the Full the Amalgamation!
O my Fascination! To perceive Thee!
The Mind universal! To fly to the Solemn!
==========================

Notes-The Manasasaras=the lake of mind,
The famous lake in the Himalayas
Amalgamation=the Eternal union
