No hurdle for Love – I

a poem by Ramesh T A

There is no hurdle for love anywhere in the human world;
Language of love may be sensational, sensuous or serious;
But Love is all powerful to humble all under its influence!

Hypnotising words of Christ converted many to Christianity!
Inspiring Gita of Krishna revolves all round Him as planets!
The power of love tames even the shrew to dance to its tune!

Literature is full of immortal love or successful love stories;
For, like friendship love plays a vital role in the human world!
Life without love, friendship, success and joy is a tasteless food!

Intellect, wealth and power alone can’t make one great sans love
That’s why love is given a great place in literature and religion;
And in the whole world only in India a Taj Mahal is built for love!

Nowhere exquisite statues were made for love except in Indian Temples
Depicting the intimate postures of natural love between divine lovers
As more than scriptural knowledge love for God is the sure way to Him!

“God will accept even poison to drink if it is offered with true love!”
Long, long ago I heard those words of power from the speeches of elders
That made me think about the link between sensual and spiritual pleasures.

Sensual, aesthetic, intellectual and spiritual pleasures are the ways to bliss!
To attain spiritual bliss aesthetic, sensual, intellectual pleasures are the route!
Aesthetic, sensual pleasures kindle knowledge of love to enjoy spiritual bliss!
