Beyond Transcendence

Breaking the boundaries, 
you released energy.
Life was an immense emptiness 
with dotting of pain and sorrow. 
Counting did not help. 
You had to escape 
to painless unawareness.


Nameless you moved, 
unacknowledged, unsung.
Humility became a meaningful dialogue, 
reverberating in the creative minds. 
The contentment 
did not need any followers. 
The occult gratification,
did not need any fame.


The cessation of agony 
and anguish was important
for becoming. 
Love and compassion became palpable; 
when your heart poured, 
when silence became eloquent, 
when words become phrases.
And intelligence moved 
beyond transcendence.
