Introduction
Seeking the WHY of It
------------------------------
The Rishi has always been the Seeker. This Moment too. The Breeze, the Bee, the Butterfly are
all seekers. Or, what does the Scientist do? The Poet? The same. In a broader sense, every thing in this Multiverse, rather the
the Prapanjam- the Multiverse- itself is seeking something per Quantum
of Moment. What is it? The answer is 'The WHY'. Or, little more clearly, 'The Why of It'.
This book of mine, a complete collection of my English Poems is also seeking 'The Why' of It.
This is natural. All are seekers; me too. If you are a seeker, you are a poet. A scientist too. Not only
these two, but also a Rishi. Thus the perpetual trio is born-"The Rishi-the Poet-the Scientist". When
this trio gets amalgamated or gets integrated, a great Thinker is being incarnated.
The Great THOUGHT of Bharatham.
---------------------------------------------
Really, nobody knows when the
Rishi of
Bharatham was born. So much ancient the story is.
The
Manthras of the Vedas and Upanishads are pure Poetry. They were evolved,not involved. Which
mind that inhales it, does enjoy fragrance individual. The n-dimensional nature of the
Vedic Manthras makes them difficult to understand and interpret.They are thus esoteric purely. The Rishi
explained them by illustrating the same by beautiful magic realistic stories. And thus the epics -
Ramayana and
Mahabharatha were evolved from the Seventh Sense of the Rishi/the Poet/the Scientist. The Rishi who composed these evergreen poetic creations himself is the major character
in these Epics of Bharatham. In Iliad or Odyssey, Homer is not himself a character. This nature of
Bharatheeya Puranas
gives them a peculiar absolute subtle clarity.
Mahavakyas: The Great Contemplations
These Mahavakyas are the pillars of the Great Fragrant Eternal Thought of Bharatham.
Anything and Every Thing is me! Is there any thing versatile than this universal socialistic
democratic scientific and subtle thought of Oneness? How much ancient this sweet feel of brotherhood and nonviolence? Did this Ancient Country conquer or colonize any foreign country
at any time in the whole history of mankind? Is there a single instance? The answer is negative as we
know. All these blooming thoughts are blossoming in "The Why" poems I believe.
Three Maharishis-
----------------------
1. Maharishi Badarayana(Vyasa)
2. Maharishi Sankaracharya
3.Maharishi Narayanagurudeva
All the three Gurus are Great Poets, Scientists and Scholars.
They taught and practiced Adwaita(Non-Dual) doctrine. Modern Scientific Thought underlines
their Great Words.
I hope that I have humbly made an attempt to elaborate and illustrate their teachings through
these poems and to introduce that nectar to my brothers and sisters of the Universe.
Also I hope that these poems as a whole would act as a Golden Bridge between
the Eastern and Western Thinking.
Really only One is Perpetual and that is Knowledge.
Poems of "The WHY "
---------------------------
Create Space, Amazon, has already published these poems in 5 separate titles as many of my
readers know. Also these poems have been listed, published, reviewed and archived by www.poetry.com. Many of them are available on Poemhunter.com and on Google. Still, the astonishing acceptance of these poems on the Global Scenario invited the need of this complete
compilation. More over, a 6th title" Next Moment Poetry(51 poems) is added fresh.
Hope all of you, the Poetry Lovers of the entire World would join me to enjoy this
wonderful journey of Seeking "The Why".
