[vallalargroups:887] vallalar poem

Dear Members of the space and groups,

          

 

It may please be recalled that in the sermon great on 22.10.1873, Saint Vallalar has asserted,

 

                  "The experience of the soul which is the truth

                              of Nature is actually the life of excellence"

 

Today we all understand in the Path of Truth lighted by the saint that any one striving to extinguish the flame of life in the name of caste, creed, religion, race and language, could never appreciate the light of soul. The glory of the human being lies in the power of thinking. Living under the gloom of mutual destruction, humanity itself has become an endangered species under the mushrooming clouds of nuclear explosions. The right of humanity to live in peace is being interfered with by the liberty of the primitives of civilization obsessed with permanence in this temporal world. The songs of soul teaching arithmetic of life are sown as seeds of genesis in the mind of the humanity to steer the wounded world from the sea of holocaust to the shore of life in realization. 

 

 

 

Pebbles on beach or pearls of wisdom?.......

 

Darkness reigns brilliance of stars celestial

Light searches for life in the nest of space

Vision stumbles on stones of ignorance

Shelter on earth rocks edge of existence

Cauldron of weaponry coppery red

Humanity shelled out from the fold of rest

Fire of spite scorches crops of existence

Clad in flags, coffins float on spool of blood

Womb of earth frozen with tombs of honor

Exodus to escape extinction in spate.

 

 

Weathercock wails in the raging storm

Paddles of patriotism drifted nations apart

Relics of religions scattered light supreme

Tongues of mothers twisted ears of the child

Conviction breeds seeds of ignorance

Poles of wars hung hammock of peace

Pyramids cradle mummies of deterrence

Sphinx fondles cubs of naked holocaust.

 

 

 

Oracle is aware of the Ides of March

Tree is not apparent within space of seed

Humanity endangered crouches in gloom

Dawn of the millennium kneels down for peace

Rainbow hoists flags of truce

Nest of crow hatches eggs of cuckoo

Twigs of the nest conquer cells of brain

Chisel of wisdom sculpts stone ignorant

When the soul is known, then life is known.

.

 

More such songs written to understand the relevance of Saint Vallalar today, are to follow.

 

With regards
