The Indivisible Truth

That which is eternal and unchangeable
Which was, which is and which remains
That which when defined gets desecrated
Is the Truth, the absolute, and indivisible.

Nonetheless the truth being unconditional
The ancient savants have over period of time
Strangely interpreted it in innumerable ways
And justified their version of truth as perfect.

The ordinary mortal who holds it as sacred
Gets misguided, utterly confused and lost
With great masters thrusting their versions
Have let loose chaos and sheer helplessness.

The scholars belonging to different faiths
Have inferred as per their inadequate grasp
No blemish need to be attributed to them
For no logic, however convincing, stands.

But all the illustrious visionaries preceding
Have inexplicably tried to divide the Truth
And ordained mankind to follow their suit
That led to propagation of numerous faiths.

The Infinite truth defies all interpretation
It is beyond any deliberation intellectual  
But can be realized through silent musings
As and when, the spirit shuns the mundane.
