In every deed that we pursue,
Two shadows walk-one dark, one light.
No act is born of perfect light,
Nor wholly lost in endless night.
Good may rise like morning air,
Bad may whisper unaware;
Yet what we choose to shape and feed
Decides the worth of every deed.
When good outweighs the darker part,
The act becomes a noble art;
But when the shadows claim their share,
The deed grows heavy with despair.
Thus weigh each step, each word, each might-
For good faith and virtue lie in choosing right.
★
The sacred Texts
The Right to Read, Preach and Teach
All souls may read the sacred lore,
No caste or creed can bar that door.
No birth, no gender can deny,
The quest for truth that dwells on high.
Yet one who speaks and dares to guide,
Must hold true wisdom deep inside.
For words untrue, by ignorance spread,
Lead many minds by falsehood led.
Thus Sanātan Dharma makes it clear,
Not all who read should always steer;
But those with wisdom, pure and true,
May share the light for all to view.
★
True Knowledge
God is Creator of all that is,
The source of life, of cosmic bliss.
God is Sustainer of all that lives,
A silent grace that ever gives.
God is the One where all streams end,
Beyond all forms and fleeting dreams.
To know this truth deep in the soul
Is true knowledge, makes one whole.
★
The Purity of True Knowledge
God said: no treasure shines so bright,
As knowledge pure, the soul’s true light.
When yogis pure in heart attain,
Truth is revealed by God again.
No flame so pure, no vision clear,
Dispels the night of doubt and fear.
It fills the heart with inner light,
A truth long veiled now comes to light.
Not gained by words nor fleeting art,
Nor born where restless passions start.
But in the depths of tranquil will,
It dawns when mind and breath are still.
One who walks the inward way,
Where mind and thought in silent purity stay.
In yoga deep, with spirit aligned,
Finds living truth within the mind.
When self and God no more divide,
And ego’s fleeting shadows slide,
Then knowledge pure begins to rise,
A living truth the soul realizes.
No outer proof is needed then,
Nor borrowed thoughts of other men.
For one who dwells in union true,
Sees all sustained by One, in sacred view.
---------------------------------
One-Line Essence of this Poem:
True knowledge does not arise from
the outer world, but from inner
purity and the stillness of the soul;
it is revealed by God.
💓
Wisdom Through Living, Not Reading Alone
Many spend their lives in reading lore,
Yet wisdom seldom reaches to the core.
Pages turn and fleeting knowledge grows,
Yet inner truth remains what few can know.
They chase the words in endless, streams,
Lose themselves in borrowed dreams.
But borrowed light can never truly stay,
When life’s own trials darken every way.
One who walks through sorrow, loss, and pain,
Who falls, yet rises stronger through the strain,
Learns truths no written page can e’er convey,
And finds within a self-illumined way.
For wisdom lives not bound in ink or page,
Nor locked within the scholar’s gilded cage.
It blooms in hearts courageous, deep, and true,
Trials faced and life experienced through.
So read-but live the truths that you have known,
Let insight grow by seeds your life has sown.
For wisdom’s light begins to rise inside,
When life itself becomes your truest guide.
★
The Silence of Truth
In this world, none truly wish to hear,
Nor seek the truth that lies so near.
Each voice rises, eager to proclaim,
Its own story, its own name.
All long to speak, but none to heed,
Lost in pride and selfish need.
Until misfortune strikes the soul,
No one seeks what makes them whole.
In this world, all chase their fame,
Spreading wide their fleeting name.
None here wish to listen-lost in pride;
Truth stands silent, pushed aside.
This is the hard reality of Earth-
Every pure soul knows it from birth.
★
Dream, Death, Rebirth and the Soul
When silent slips the soul away,
No mortal sense can trace its way.
No tremor stirs the lifeless frame,
No sign appears, none speaks its name.
In subtle vastness moves the soul,
Beyond all breath, beyond control.
Alone it glides from realms divine,
Or led by Yama’s aides through Time.
Along death’s path, by karma shown,
In ways unknown, it journeys on.
But when it takes a form once more,
And enters flesh as done before,
A sudden pain, a conscious start,
Proclaims its presence in the heart.
That touch of life, that stirring flame,
Declares the soul has come again.
Through sense and ache, the truth is shown
The living self is not the bone.
O wandering mind, be not misled
By dreams where fleeting shadows spread.
Not all that seems is truly real;
Discern the truth that pain reveals.
For dreams may weave illusion’s veil,
Yet signs of truth shall still prevail.
Know by that spark, so deep within-
The soul returns, and life begins.

Yama’s aides=messengers of

Love in Living Moments-Now, Not Later
(Service Before Separation)
The time beyond this life’s unclear,
Next birth may come in days or years.
After death, we offer tears,
Sacred rites with heartfelt prayers
Serve your loved ones while they live,
With all the care your heart can give.
Time once lost returns no more,
Late regrets will wound the core.
When breath departs and soul has flown,
No service then can still be shown.
Empty hands and tearful cries,
Cannot reach the soul that flies.
Kind words spoken, deeds so kind,
Leave a lasting peace behind.
Do not wait for “someday” call,
That day may not come at all.
So act today with love sincere,
Hold your dear ones ever near.
In living moments, truth is clear-
Serve them now, while they are here.
★
The Habit and Mistake of the Jiva
The jiva dwells where once his birth had been,
And thinks that place alone his world has been.
He cries that fate and others bring him pain,
And sees in all around a hostile chain.
He knows not deeds that shaped his present way,
Nor trusts the justice none can take away.
He clings to kin, to caste, to fleeting ties,
And deems them all, beneath illusion’s skies.
Forgetting call divine, so soft yet true,
He weaves his plans in worldly, narrow view.
Thus lost in self, in pride and binding drama,
He fails to see the law of higher karma.
This is his fault, the blindness of the soul-
He leaves the truth that makes the jiva whole.
jiva = a living being
💧
O Lord,
My longings fade, my hopes fulfilled,
And all I cherished slips away, diminished.
The debt of birth still calls Your name;
Come, take me in Your arms again.
In this vast world where sorrow swells,
No heart remains where pure love dwells.
Where only Your pure love can live,
My aching soul longs to return and live.
Scarred by betrayal, I forsook desire;
Burned by deep sorrow, I quenched all fire.
I’ve wept so long- now tears won’t come;
My breaking heart falls in Your loving arms.
💓
When the Guardian Is Gone
When the teacher is away from sight,
The wicked swell in shadowed might;
They strut with haughty, brazen tone,
As if the school were theirs alone.
They warp the truth, they break the rule,
They scorn the meek, and make men fools.
The kind, the pure, the disciplined one,
Thrust aside and beaten down like a swan.
So too, when God’s light fades from earth,
When true saints fade from mortal birth,
The sinners rise with hearts of stone,
And rule and rend the world alone.
With pride they march, with malice burn,
From dharma’s path they all return;
They cheat the just, they wound the fair,
And cloak the world in dark despair.
Thus heed this law, both old and deep:
When guardians sleep, the wolves shall creep.
Where wisdom, dharma, faith are lost,
The righteous innocent pay the cost.
💓
Dharma - The Eternal Flame
Dharma is truth-eternal, vast,
Not bound to future, nor chained to past.
Universal law, serene and bright,
A deathless flame of guiding light.
Not for selfish gain declared,
Nor twisted words by ego snared;
It stands untouched by greed or claim,
Unmoved by praise, unhurt by blame.
Infinite, pure, forever the same,
Beyond all sect, beyond all name;
It lives where righteousness is done,
It shines alike on everyone.
Who guards Dharma with faithful heart,
And never from its path departs,
By that same Dharma is guarded still,
In storm, in sorrow, by higher will.
For Dharma is truth-eternal, wide,
The cosmic law none can divide;
He who in Dharma chooses to stand,
Is held secure by unseen hand.
★
Language and Righteousness
Language is a tool where thoughts are shared,
To speak with love, with mindful care.
With words and rules, minds find a way,
To show what hearts would wish to say.
Yet righteousness needs no single tongue,
Its truth in every tongue is sung.
In every land, in voices free,
It lives in pure integrity.
No language blocks what’s right and true,
For duty shines in all that’s due.
Actions speak both loud and clear,
Their fruits will follow far and near.
So speak in words or silent stay,
Deeds alone will show the way.
For righteousness and actions prove,
The truth that lives, the life that moves.
💓
Do not laugh when another falls,
For every soul bears unseen calls.
Do not defame with careless speech,
For words can wound beyond all reach.
If you must criticize, do it for good,
As a healer would, not one who stood.
And when in doubt, consult with care,
With pure intent and honest prayer.
For kindness is the path we tread,
And righteousness the light ahead.
Speak truth with grace, avoid the lie,
For falsehood dims the inner eye.
Help the weary without a claim,
In selfless acts, kindle the flame.
Forgive the fault, as you would be freed,
From chains of anger, sow the seed of peace.
Honor the elder, love and guide the young,
Let harmony blossom, peace-song be sung.
Thus walk in Dharma, pure and bright,
Your conduct leads to endless light.
💓
Descent and Ascent of the Soul
(The Ladder of Fall and Rise)
From lust arises wrathful flame,
Delusion clouds the heart and aim.
Then greed and pride with envy blend,
Thus downward does the spirit descend.
From self-restraint springs peaceful bloom,
Clear mind dispels the inner gloom.
From righteousness flows humble grace,
And love uplifts the soul to its place.
💓
Fabric of Truth
What is woven out of threads of lies
Shines for a moment - then slowly dies.
Its colors fade, its strength is small,
Built on shadows, it must fall.
Falsehood fashions learning’s art,
Education bright- yet void at heart;
For wisdom wrapped in deceitful thread
Is living light - yet already dead.
A king who builds his throne on lies
May dazzle crowds and seem so wise;
Yet time unveils the hidden flaw -
His crown shall break by justice’s law.
A kingdom raised on falsehood’s ground
May glitter wide with trumpet sound;
But hidden cracks beneath the hall
Will topple power, proud and tall.
But cloth of truth, though plain it seems,
Glows with light beyond all dreams.
No storm can tear, no fire consume,
It carries peace, it banishes gloom.
Truth may walk a silent way,
Yet brings calm dawn after night’s gray.
So weave your life with threads of light,
With honest word and vision bright.
For what is born of truth shall stand,
In peace of soul - forever grand.
💓
All ask me, “Where have you learned?”
I reply, “From all that I have seen-
From there my lessons I have learned.”
Lord Ram came, fulfilled his sacred duty;
Lord Krishna came, acted just as truly.
Tell me, Without action, without duty,
How can my Dharma be earned truly?
💓
In the Guise of Dharma
They explain Dharma in their own way,
To uplift their image and suit their way.
They trample Dharma’s eternal core,
Yet wear the garb that saints once wore;
With pious speech and crooked art,
They hide the poison in their heart.
They name their sins as “sacred will,”
And drag the Divine to bless their ill;
Before each crime, they falsely claim,
“God Himself ordained this game.”
Blinded by ignorance and ego, deaf to truth,
They chase the shadow, shun the proof;
What seems to them as heaven’s light,
Is but the veil of endless night.
Not righteous are these men, misled-
By pride and greed they all are led;
Their merit fades, their virtue dies,
As death and darkness slowly rise.
Thus heed this law, O wandering soul-
God dwells with truth, not the unkind;
Where Dharma breaks and falsehood reigns,
There sin and misery walk in chains.
💓
Misguided in the Name of God
Those who violate eternal Dharma’s way,
Yet boast of righteousness night and day,
They cloak their sins in sacred dress,
And call their falsehood “godliness.”
In every wrongful deed they claim,
“The Lord Himself inspires our aim.”
They drag the Divine into their sin,
And think salvation lies therein.
Blinded by pride, they cannot see
How far they drift from truth's decree.
What they call light is deepest night,
What they call truth is void of sight.
No, they are not the righteous band-
They wander lost in desert sand.
Their fortune fades, their spirit falls,
For death and darkness softly calls.
They are not virtuous; not devoted to God.
They are misguided in the name of the Lord.
💧
Prayer to the God.
Bestow on us Your strength, O Lord Divine,
Let steadfast faith forever be mine.
Guide every step upon the righteous way,
Let us never falter, never stray.
Dispel all darkness born of deep ignorance,
Awaken truth in the light of Your radiance.
Guard us always from the paths of sin,
And fill our hearts with grace within.
Let no heart harbor hatred or fear,
Let thoughts of revenge never appear.
May selfish gain and pride depart,
And every deed be a sacred art.
Let joy’s soft blossoms scatter wide,
Till every life blooms, glorified.
O Lord of worlds, whose mercies flow,
Cleanse each heart You lovingly know.
This world is heavy with sorrow and pain,
Its people bound in suffering’s chain.
Sin’s vast burden grows day by day-
How still, O Lord, does Earth not sway?
O Ocean of Mercy, compassionate and kind,
Lift this weight from humankind.
Let not Your creation fade or cease,
Bless the world with lasting peace.
May we bear our deeds with courage and grace,
And face all trials in Your embrace.
Let past sorrows never return,
Let future joys forever burn.
Bestow on us Your strength, O Lord Divine,
Let steadfast faith forever be mine.
Guide our lives upon the righteous way-
Let us never falter, never stray.

Samsara shines with borrowed light,
It seems so real to blinded sight;
Yet like a mist at dawn it flees,
A fragile wave on shifting seas.
It changes scene from day to day,
What blooms at morn is lost by grey;
No form remains, no joy can stay
All dances in Maya’s sway.
It hides the Truth our heart would know,
The Self that stands beyond its show;
Behind its veil of hope and fear
The pure, eternal Light is near.
It binds the soul in love and grief,
In fleeting ties and small belief;
“Forgetting thus the ancient vow
We come alone, we leave alone;
None walks with us beyond the known.”
With smiles it tempts, with tears it bends,
It weaves a web that never ends;
But when we wake from night’s deceit,
Its dream dissolves beneath our feet.
O traveler, rise from Maya’s dream,
Seek that which is the deathless beam;
For only Truth forever shines,
Eternal, silent, pure, divine.
💧
Samsara is the continuous cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, sustained by one’s karma (action) and desires, from which liberation is the ultimate goal.
Maya means "illusion" or "that which is not," referring to the cosmic force that creates the illusion that the phenomenal world, including relationships, success and failure, pleasure and pain, life and death, etc.- appears solid, permanent, and real.

Life and Death (Truth–Illusion)
In this world, life appears so real,
Yet all it holds is but a passing veil.
After death, the soul begins to see
The hidden truth of what was meant to be.
This worldly life-no more than a dream,
A fleeting shadow, not what it may seem.
When death arrives, the soul awakes at last,
Freed from the illusion of the past.
Therefore in life, let righteous actions guide,
With virtue and good deeds held deep inside.
Else after death, one surely must endure
Great pain and sorrow-none can make it pure.
Life is but a play; death reveals the truth
It runs its course here, then dissolves into truth.
💖
In this brief life, some walk as friends,
While others part as journey ends;
Some shine like lamps along the way,
Some warm our hearts, yet cannot stay.
We wander on with map unknown,
Each step uncertain—still our own;
We strive to find our destined role,
The truth unread within the soul.
But when the light of wisdom nears,
It calms our doubts and stills our fears;
Then peace unfolds its gentle art,
And dawn awakens in the heart.
Alone discern where purpose lies;
Their grace uplifts, their friendship guides
The trembling soul through shadowed tides.
So walk with God, keep faith alive,
Let love within your spirit thrive;
For those who stand with Him above
Shall walk below in endless love.
💓
Do Not Cry on Death
O soul, do not weep at anyone’s death,
For birth and death share a single breath.
One has laid this body aside like attire,
For the voyage of being will not expire.
He shall be reborn on this very sphere,
In another form, maybe in another year.
One who was once so near and dear,
May become your foe, if destiny steers.
A different name, or perhaps the same,
A different tongue, or familiar frame;
A different path his feet may tread,
Or walk again where once he led.
So, O soul, sink not in sorrow deep,
For death is a door-no eternal sleep.
Remain tranquil, wakeful, aware;
Do what is right, sincere and fair.
And step by step, your soul secure,
You shall arrive where all is pure.
💓
Story of a Wandering Soul
I am but a wandering jiva, traveler led by deed,
Unbound by lineage, untouched by race or creed.
From birth to birth I journey, on wherever actions send,
Through changing forms of life, that know no final end.
Now born as man among mankind beneath the fleeting sky,
Then cast among the beasts of earth where instincts lie.
From beast again to human form the wheel of time may guide,
Thus countless shapes I wear upon the world’s unending tide.
From land to land I wander on—no soil is mine alone,
The world itself becomes for me a path not yet my own.
How then shall I proclaim “This faith alone is mine,”
When through a many paths of life wandering souls align?
Until the jiva sees the Truth beyond all birth and span,
No homeland binds, no caste is mine, no creed is mine.

The Power of Self-Correction
(From Inner Truth to World Peace)
If one beholds one’s faults within,
And strives to cleanse each trace of sin,
With steadfast will and vision true,
All inner storms fade from view.
If society can see its flaws,
And strives to mend its broken laws,
With mindful steps and purpose wise,
Its heavy chains dissolve and die.
If every country knows its flaws,
And walks the path of righteous laws,
Through self-correction, firm and wise,
A nation’s countless troubles die.
If nations see their shadowed ways,
And walk the path of righteous ways,
Through self-correction, pure and kind,
The world’s deep wounds are healed in time.

मैंने देखा वह युग..."
(अंधकार युग की कविता)
मैंने देखा एक ऐसा काल,
जहाँ मन था काला, हृदय विकराल।
जहाँ हृदयों पर पत्थर का बोझ,
प्रेम भी बन गया सुख-संपदा की खोज।
न था कोई सच्चा अपनापन,
हर चेहरा दिखता औपचारिक जन।
माताएँ खुद ममता मिटाएँ,
पिता भी अपना स्नेह भुलाएँ।
राजा बने निर्दय अत्याचारी,
ताक़त के मद में मस्त सब अधिकारी।
झूठ छलकता हर आदेश में,
अपराध छिपा हर वेश-भेष में।
निरपराध बंदीगृह में सड़ते,
दोषी महलों में निर्भय हँसते।
न्याय बना एक महा-तमाशा,
जनता ठगी, खो बैठी आशा।
क्रूरता मस्तक ऊँचा उठाए,
दया कोने-कोने में कँपकँपाए।
श्रद्धा, भक्ति बने मिथ्याचार,
भक्त सहें उपहास बारंबार।
जो हाथ जोड़ें, वे अपमानित हों,
जो सत्य बोलें, वे प्रताड़ित हों।
मैंने देखा पतन का वह दृश्य,
जहाँ पिस रहा था ईश्वर का शिष्य।
पर शोक के उस गहरे क्षण में,
एक दीप जला तम के घन में।
ईश्वर स्वयं धरा पर आए,
घावों पर आशा के फूल खिलाए।
ईश्वर को देख मैं रो पड़ा,
वो बोले , “मत रो, देख, मैं आ गया।
अब पीड़ा की यह समय जाएगी,
सत्य की नयी सुबह आएगी।
छल-कपट का पर्दा हटेगा,
धर्म का दीप पुनः जलेगा।
अन्याय की दीवार गिरेगी,
न्याय की वाणी फिर बोलेगी।
मनुष्यता फिर मुस्काएगी,
हर हृदय में प्रेम समाएगी।
अब भय नहीं, विश्वास होगा,
नव युग का उद्घोष होगा।

The voice of faith in silence speaks,
"The Lord of all has touched earth’s peaks.
The Maker of stars, of time and breath,
Has chosen to walk the world of death.
Not alone He comes, the One divine,
But with the first, the ancient sign
Born of His mind, His soul, His flame,
He watched the world , its pain and pride,
Where truth lay lost, and hope had died.
He saw man’s heart in shadows dwell,
Where greed and hatred cast their spell.
Yet now the time, the turning near,
When both shall rise and reappear
The Maker and the Made shall stand,
To lift the earth with loving hand.
No crown they wear, no throne they seek,
But justice in the hearts of meek.
The old shall fall, the false shall fade,
And truth shall shine in every shade.
In a few short years, the change will flow,
Like rivers melting mountain snow.
A golden age shall spring from strife,
Where love and truth restore all life.
O seeker, wait with steady flame,
For soon the world won’t be the same.
The age of lies shall pass away
💧
Dos and Don’ts of Eternal Religion
Mock not the grace that women bear;
She cradles life with tender care.
Deceive no child whose heart is pure;
Their trust is sacred, their love secure.
Betray not faith so deep, so true;
Her strength awakes in every hue.
Raise not the hand on humankind-
We all are threads in life entwined.
Spare every soul of guiltless birth;
Compassion still upholds the earth.
Let no one suffer by thy pride;
For God walks humbly at their side.
Shun paths of hatred, greed, and spite;
Let truth and mercy be your light.
Guard well the thought, the word, the deed;
For mind’s the field where virtues seed.
Revere the Earth-her woods and seas;
They breathe our life in silent peace.
Harm not the beasts, nor waste the field;
To love all life is virtue’s shield.
Forgive the wrong, release the chain;
For wrath returns as deeper pain.
In pardon rests the soul made free;
Forgiveness mirrors divinity.
Serve the weak, the lost, the poor;
Through service true, God guards the door.
Let giving hands and hearts unite-
For selfless love is sacred might.
Let pride not blind the inward sight;
The meek in spirit walk in light.
Honour the wise, the saint, the sage;
Their words redeem the darkest age.
Shun cruel ways and restless night;
Let peace and truth be your guiding light.
Where love is law and hate departs,
There Dharma lives in human hearts.
Where life is truth and souls are art,
Eternal Dharma breathes through every heart.

I saw the Lord descend to earth,
To cleanse the world, to spark rebirth.
With power divine, serene and bright,
He touched the dark and poured His light.
His name was sung by hearts so true,
Devotees gathered, pure and few.
Their voices soared in sacred song,
While faithless ones still ruled the throng.
Still chased the crown to call their own.
They sought their gain, with blinded pride,
While truth lay wounded, cast aside.
But by God's grace, a day arose,
When all who stood as virtue's foes
The tyrants, cheats, and soulless men
Were swept away and seen again no more then.
With empty hands they fled the land,
Their castles turned to dust and sand.
Where truth and love walked every stage.
Now dharma reigns, serene and wise,
Devotion lives beneath the skies.
All praise the Lord, both near and far
Who brought to earth the righteous star.
💧
Do not unsheathe the sword in blasphemy’s name,
For blood cannot defend the Divine Flame.
The soul you judge was shaped by God’s own hand;
His fate rests only where His verdicts stand.
God is the Judge, the Witness, and the Throne,
The King of kings-His law alone is known.
He holds the power to punish or to spare;
No mortal hand may claim that sacred care.
He sees all hearts-the shadowed and the pure,
And heals the wounds no mortal hands can cure.
He may forgive, as one forgives a child,
Lost in his ways, unknowing, weak, and wild.
By mercy tried, a fallen soul may rise
To saintly calm where faith and truth abide.
So let not hate wear holiness as dress-
Let love, not death, proclaim true righteousness.
For God seeks not our rage, our sword, our fear;
He seeks the soul that kneels in love sincere.
💧
Man:
A Peculiar Creation of God
Man is a peculiar creation of God,
Standing between the saint and the fraud.
When he walks with angels, near the Divine,
His heart grows pure, his soul starts to shine.
He acts as a devotee, gentle and true,
In virtue he lives, in compassion he grows.
He loves all beings as God’s own art,
Seeing the Creator in every heart.
But when he draws near demons of the mind,
And turns from God, leaving truth behind,
He acts like a monster, cruel and cold,
Forgetting the light his soul once held.
Humanity fades, mercy departs from hearts,
Creation is wounded by merciless works and arts.
Thus man stands free, yet shaped by his choice
To follow the light, or the darkness’ voice.
💘
In the age of Kali dark, They choose to appear, Cleansing faults of mortal hearts, driving out all fear.
When the shades of Kali fade and swiftly pass away,
Dharma wakes for humankind, truth returns to stay. Truth’s light shall flood the world, shining through the skies.
Let this world be filled with love , peace for every soul;
May all beings live as one, harmony the goal.
By Jagannatha’s mercy vast, through His holy might,
Dharma shall forever rise , pure in Truth’s own light.
Glory to Lord Jagannatha , Redeemer of the Age of Darkness;
May His grace awaken light in every heart, dispelling Darkness.

A Warning Against the Wicked
Better an empty cattle-shed,
Than a cow of vicious breed;
Better utter loss endure,
Than the company impure.
From the sinful, tainted mind,
Not a spark of good we find;
Thus, even absence stands more blessed,
Than evil closely held and pressed.
As none would keep within their hall
A serpent venomous that crawls,
So wise ones ever choose to part
From cruel soul and hardened heart.
Keep far from those of wicked way-
Thus walks the wise in Dharma’s ray.

Knowing the Heart of Man
(The Measure of a Man)
In society’s wisdom, passed through time,
We find simple truths in thoughtful rhyme.
To know a person, wise and true,
Observe their words and actions too.
The ideal mind seeks thoughts that rise,
In noble dreams and visions wise.
They speak of truth, of higher aim,
And light within a virtuous flame.
The good will speak of deeds that aid,
Of paths where helping hands are laid.
Their words bring comfort, calm, and cheer,
And guide the lost with vision clear.
The lesser mind in faults will stay,
In others’ flaws they lose their way.
In constant blame their thoughts reside,
With restless tongue and wounded pride.
A person’s worth is clearly shown,
By how they treat the weak, unknown.
The ones beneath, the poor, the small,
Reveal the truth that governs all.
In nature’s care and kindness shown,
Their inner seeds are truly known.
To those in pain or deep distress,
Their acts reveal their tenderness.
A man is judged by friends he keeps,
And righteousness he accepts or leaves.
For company shapes the heart and mind,
And leaves its silent mark behind.
The face reflects the hidden soul,
Its fleeting signs reveal the whole.
In eyes and gestures softly cast,
The inner thoughts are seen at last.
A good man walks with gentle grace,
With compassion shining in his face.
He helps in times of grief and need,
With selfless heart in word and deed.
With due respect to all he gives,
In humble truth he always lives.
To elders, peers, and those below,
His reverence continues to grow.
His mind is calm, his senses still,
He governs anger by his will.
No envy clouds his steady sight,
He walks the path of inner light.
In truth he stands, in honesty clear,
With faithful heart and conscience dear.
No falsehood stains his spoken word,
His voice with purity is heard.
No pride resides within his way,
In modest strength he moves each day.
His virtues shine, yet softly stay,
Like stars that glow without display.
With sincere heart and purpose bright,
He walks in truth, in silent light.
His words and deeds in union stand,
A noble soul in every land.

The Love of God
God is all in all; He loves both great and small.
He loves the soul that walks within His light,
He loves the hearts that honor Him aright.
God loves those who love Him true and dear,
Who cherish His presence, always near.
God loves those who love Him sincere,
Who love and respect God’s near and dear.
He loves those who always obey His order,
He loves those who love all as a dear.
He loves those who respect and follow His way,
And His devotion and honor forever stay.
God cherishes hearts both pure and true,
Who honor Him, offering Him all they do.

Earth: Virtuous and Sinners
I
Sinners do not wish to leave this earth;
Again and yet again they crave rebirth.
They cling to trembling, transient, mortal sod,
In secret dread to meet the face of God.
They bind their souls to dust and fleeting clay,
And shudder at the hour they slip away.
II
But virtuous hearts, serene and ever free,
Grow weary of this veil of mortality.
They yearn to cross the silent, boundless shore,
Where birth and sorrow haunt the soul no more.
III
Yet if the righteous leave this world too soon,
If sacred lamps expire before high noon,
This earth would sink in shadow’s somber spell-
A radiant realm that darkens into hell.
No temple chants, no consecrated bell,
No holy truths the ancient scriptures tell.
When faith grows faint and prayers turn cold as stone,
Who walks the path the saints have clearly shown?
IV
So let the pure a little longer stay,
To teach, to guide, to bless, to light the way.
For while one virtuous soul on earth abides,
The living light of Dharma still presides.
