O detangling the entangling Karma - of thoughts and actions -
Would dips in holy rivers or divine consecration yield the once-for-all redemption?
Nah, not without the churning within!
The gyration of every particulate existence, to find its own equilibrium
And leave behind only the bare core to the barest particulate -
With the stripping of every layer and straightening of loops
like tearing apart the mind's fabric - in every thread, to get rid of the accumulated lint
just like in the alchemy of the cosmos - the dancer vanquishes the force of disruption
To let the quantum of existence find its way to its whole
Then the river of life begins to flow, a trickle at first, then wild currents of energy
Seeking the confluence, to its purest, rawest becoming, -
Through manifestations of divine 'n' demonic, light 'n' dark - the dance of Natraj awaits the awakening
To quell the daunting, doubting and digressing forces of opposites
Then the celestial ambrosia oozes from those currents of life -
You need just one immersion to look within and realize
This journey of the Ganges from Shiva's crest has just begun!
