DESIRE (Poem: Geetha)
“Desireistherootofallevils
Giveupdesire”-saidLordBuddha
WhatinspiredtheLordtorenounceeverything?
Wasitintensedesiretoknowtgetruth?
Wasitintensedesireforenlightenment?
Desireisaray
Arayofhopeformany
Throughouttheendurancetestinlife
Whenstruggleandflutterlikeabirdinacage
Withoutdesirenomanisfittoliveonearth
Aproverbsays
“Ifiwanttobeahunter,I’llhuntrhinoceros;
IfiwanttobearobberI’llrobkingstreasury;
Whatistheuseofhuntingantsandrobbingbeggars?”
Whyaftersillythings?
Ifyoudesire,desiretheHighest-
Whichnosincantarnish
Nocrimecanspoil,nolustcantaint,
Whichfirecannotburnnorwaterwet
Whichaircannotdry,nordeathkill
Desirehigh,livehighandtranscenddeath.
