Synopsis

This is a work of poetic reflections, on the world, Self, and Reality. In short, these are mystical poems. They are offered to all people, irrespective of their race, caste, creed, color, and gender, thereby hoping to persuade all people to engage in the quest for self-knowledge and hence of ultimate reality. The main goal and purpose of these poems is to enable every reader to attain transcendence. Even if this work is moderately successful in this endeavor, the author will have been more than rewarded. The author greatly appreciates all the scientists, philosophers, and religious thinkers, who so generously gave their time and talent to read these poems and give their most valuable suggestions and reflections. These are not ordinary poems, but those requiring deep thought and introspection. All people who are in quest of their true Self will find these poems most rewarding.The author is most grateful to Professor Arthur Herman, a great Sanskritist and Indic thinker, for deeming this work worthy of his Foreword.
