The Upanishads are the cows
By admin | August 27, 2008
The cows symbolise the Upanishads
They were all milked by the Lord
The milk thus obtained is Geetha,
The Great Song of Eternity
The Upanishad sung by the Lord
The Science of the Absolute
The Scripture of the Yogis
The Lamp lit by the Lord
At the altar of humanity
To save humanity from Evil
To take man to immortality
To Eternity & Peace Heavenly !
A scripture allegorical
Symbolic of the inner war
Happening in the human bosom
Between the conflicting Good and Evil
Duryodhana is Lust
Dussasana is Anger
Intellect is Arjuna
The Self is Krishna !
Know then the Self is the Charioteer
The chariot is the human body
The horses five are the organs five
And mind the reigns !
We are the place where
The great battle is fought
The great struggle for supremacy
Between Light and Darkness
Between Prosperity and Adversity
Between the great forces of Love
And the great forces of Lust
Betwixt Love of Power & the Power of Love
Let the Power of Love win !
Over the lust and love of Power
Liberate us, O All Compassionate !
In this great battle, depicted by the poets
As Epic Poetry, Iliad and Odyssey,
Ramayana and Mahabharata
The Self, His great transparent mirror
Directs and controls the show throughout
This cosmic play, this mighty show,
Is willed by the Self in its totality
And perpetually entertained!
He resides as the Self in the chariot
Of the human body, directing
The five organs of sense, instructing
The intellect discriminative, to wage war
Against the enemies formidable
Lust, greed, anger, jealousy
Sloth, covetousness, gluttony
With Love ineffable He makes us victorious
With the qualities positive, aligned to Love !
