This piece of poetry is inspired by few lines from Bhagavad Gita
My reasons my fears ,
my thoughts that pierced my heart
were answered when I got an awakening call,
I realised I was wrong
all my worries are without cause .
unwarranted my fears , unfounded they are all !
When my present is happening ,
why should I regret my past ,
and
worry about my future ?
What did i lose ?
What ever I have received was received here ,
had nothing at all !
What ever I have given , was never mine !
I produced nothing that got destroyed !
My worry
about
who is gonna light my pyre ,is an inane thought ,
do i care who is gonna cry
My fright about death , a vapid thought !
I am gonna die but my soul will remain alive !
a phenomenon ,a metempsychosis
I can not deny !
My first cry of life, had no apparel to hide !
My exit from life ,will be with empty hands as I arrived !
An awakening call , felt like sharing my thoughts !

So true that we create a virtual world around us and are bounded within its charms.Rightly, mentioned that we come empty handed and we leave the same. Beautiful peace indeed !!
