Whats the Point
Power Point Presentation on Meditation was underway
Eyes, ears glued to central points, narrative was on
Suddenly someone sneezed, concentration frittered away
Missed the Point, presentor thought, yet went on
Came in pointless sorry, presentation went ahead
Breathing Techniques discussed, right postures shown
Suddenly someone farted, all noses squeezed
Pointless, presentor thought, yet went on
Freshner sprayed, presentation commenced shortly
Chakaras* highlighted, high points of each focussed on
Suddenly someone yawned, rest yawned contagiously
Beyond the Point, presentor thought, yet went on
Tea break, visiting cards exchanged, presentation resumed
Practicals ensued, all called on stage one by one
Suddenly someone trying meditation snored, all bemused
No Point, presentor thought, yet went on
Meditation Presentation ended with understanding fair
All liked, vowed to religiously include in routine all lesson
Suddenly someone recalled he had `Amnesia'** during seminar
What's the Point, presentor thought, wrapped up presentation

(*) Chakaras -Eastern Tradition believes that Life force passes through
seven primary CHAKRAS (points symbolised by BodyPart),
each Chakra representing unique physical and psychic energy.
