Notes About The Poem

Ashtavakra Gita Verse 20:12

“Where is activity or inactivity? 
Where is liberation or bondage? 
I am timeless, indivisible
I am Self alone”


Verse revisited on 28-May-2023

there is no agenda on the shelf
as Self renews itself within itself
luminous, alive and self-existent
free from fetters of ego insistent

the Self is vibrant and complete 
spontaneously creating its beat
ineffable peace, no need to act
as the totality, nothing is lacked
