Change is inevitable
Acceptance of it means obeying the law of nature.
Though noticed or not, transfiguration goes on.
Beautiful butterflies undergo a complete mutation.
Chameleon changes its colour as a part of defensive mechanism.
Variations in the Sun can be seen daily in his appearance.
Dark sky roars with its thunders.
Water vapour converts into fluffy clouds.
Glaciers are formed - What a sea-change!
The eagle strives to get back its former strength,
Or else it will be left with the only option of dying.
To conceal his identity, Lucifer takes the form of a serpent.
Does it applicable to human beings?
Physical transformation of humans is highly impracticable.
Of course, there may be phases in their growth.
But the real conversion happens through their invisible thought process only.
Brutus wears the mask of friendship to hide his subversive activities.
Hamlet wears the mask of indecisiveness.
Pretences and masks cannot give real happiness
The thought process shapes the character
One insightful soul can transform the entire society.
Enlightenment shows the path of liberating the soul
Lord Buddha shows how it works out.
First of all, bring the six enemies of mind under control.
Right impressions lead to right thoughts
Right thoughts lead to right actions.
Why so?
God metamorphoses Himself and takes the forms of a child or lamb
Because He wants to be in reach of all!
