Still I Didn't Know,

Why Do I Write!

I Do Feel Deeply, 

Writing Has Become, 

A Technology, Obsolete,

Redundant, And Outdated!

For, If It's Not For Money,

For Reward,  For Admiration,

For Catching The Lime-Light,

Or For Some Other Mission,

Objective, Motive, Incentive,

Of Propagating And Spreading,

Message Of Love And Charity, 

Of Some God Or Humanity, 

Of Some Sacred Book,

There is Neither Purpose, 

Nor Meaning Any!

This Much I Could See!

Still I Didn't Know,

Why I Didn't Have, 

Why I Didn't Seek,

Fame, Name Or Money,

Still I Didn't Know!

This Not Knowing,

Of Not Knowing,

Put Me On,

The Path Of Discovering,

Why Do I Write!

And One Fine Morning,

Before The Dawn,

Arrived In The East,

In A Moment Timeless,

The Secret Was Revealed!

It Was But The संस्कार,

The SamskAra!

That Blossoms Up, 

Every day, In The Hour, 

When I'm Effortlessly,

Silent, Watchful, Aware,

My Mind Fresh, Calm, Cool,

And Silent, 

After Having Asleep In,

Deep Long Freshening Sleep,

Emerging From That Realm, 

Merging Again Into,

The Deep, Hidden, My Own,

When The Attention Has, 

Withdrawn From, 

All the Outward Known, 

Has Entered Into The Self,

The Consciousness,

Knowing That I Am,

Knowing That I Am, 

Where This Happens,

In Not Knowing,

This Not Knowing,

I Just Wonder About,

Why Do I write!
