Vijay Pandit Poet Verse

Transcendence

When imbalance of life churns hapless poignancy
And the zephyr of inequities breezes melancholy
Dissonance reverberates echoing pathos of grief
Seeking exaltation within metaphysical profundity
As hushed posture conjures up humbling catharsis,
Leaning in quietude, questing paranormal vitality,
Liberating from bounds of mundane, the ordinary,
Energizing calming bliss of unfamiliar, extrasensory.

Mortal soul steadily crosses limits of understanding
Reaching deep into unknown, unexplored territory,
Daring to search for knowledge in mystical obscurity
Pursuing enlightenment from supernatural intrigue,
Discovering newfound acuity blossoming internally
Adulating freedom of shedding narrow boundaries
Gaining divine wisdom, postulating own doctrines, 
Comprehending missives in blissfulness of sagacity.

As laments mellow in teachings of superior intellect
And bawl of distraught soothes in heavenly solace
Finding ambrosial tranquility in endearing calmness,
Physiological longings amiably, peacefully dissipate
And gradually soul enlightens, unafraid of mortality,
Yearning for permanence of purposeful inviolability,
Meaningful beyond self, detaching from materiality,
Synchronizing harmoniously in idyllic, placid sanctity.

Anitha Jayasankar January 22, 2022 at 6:52 AM Great flow of thoughts in this beautiful verse on spiritual transcendence Vijayji... "Discovering new found acuity blossoming internally", loved this line... the first time we realize our own selves, it is new found spark of knowledge of the Universal Truth. The last stanza is just amazing.. " physiological longings amiably peacefully dissipate... ", it's so true... at such a state of the final stage of spiritual transcendence, though I haven't experienced personally, maybe, that is how it is... the soul enlightens gradually... synchronizing harmoniously with the Ultimate Knowledge... Felt so blissful reading your as always amazing words... God bless...
