an absolute self

"The greatest lie in the world is told touching the holy scriptures in court. And the truest of all is said by drinking the wine in the bar." - Mirza Ghalib The universe is mine, I belong to this universe I am cherished in the true bar of natural love I am rude without myself but a true fanatic with me I never went to religious people to learn myself I didn't want to touch the scriptures, I didn't want to learn by imitation I did not look for a different partner except the true self Existing within me is I- an absolute self I am a drunkard partner in my truth with the drink of absolute self-wine Don’t want to be a hypocrite shield by being a part of the scriptures' sign ©Mahtab Bangalee 29th December, 2024 Chattogram
