Be Neelkanth, swallow not poison of five vices, rather keep it suppressed in throat: Message of Shivratri in non-poem
~Lalit Kishore
NON-POEM
Non-reaction ‘n equanimity –
Anti-dotes to poison of worldly evils
The way is not to allow
Poison to get to head or stomach
Rather keep it locked in the throat
~~~**~~~
Get not shackled
By dualities
By extremes
By vices
By ego
~ ~ ~ * * * ~ ~ ~
Be Neelkanth -
React not
Retaliate not
Stay cool, calm and collected
Stay in dynamic balance
~ ~ ~ * * * ~ ~ ~
Create harmony between opposites
Birth--n-death
Joy-n-sorrow
Feminity-n-masculinity
Self ‘n supra-self
~ ~ ~ * * * ~ ~ ~
Consume not the poison
Of vices
Of sensual gratifications
Of falsehood
Of ignorance
Of disunity
Seek, strive for and hone equanimity
Be Neelkanth!
