Description

[ This poem is taken from Gitanjali ( song offering)-Nobel Prize winning work by Rabindranad Tagore author of Indian National Anthem ] http://www.schoolofwisdom.com/gitanjali.html [ People are too busy to worship God or to appreciate His glory manifested in nature. The poet and companions set out on the journey, neither resting nor stopping nor caring for nature's beauty. As the heat of the sun increased, the poet lay down to rest. His companions mocked him and moved on. He slept and woke up and saw the Divine standing before him. Not our willful effort but total surrender to his will is the way to God- realization.] ........... ........... The sun rose to the mid sky and doves cooed in the shade. Withered leaves danced and whirled in the hot air of noon. The shepherd boy drowsed and dreamed in the shadow of the banyan tree, and I laid myself down by the water and stretched my tired limbs on the grass. ............... How I had feared that the path was long and wearisome, and the struggle to reach thee was hard! [This shot was taken while on a ten hour ride on my bike on the way back to Alleppey. I took this shot from a bridge and I feel this poem is just what I experienced at that moment. Surely you will love this poem, any who had stopped by the way side to have a look at God's wonderful creations. On 9th of this month India officially celebrated 148th birth day of R.Tagore and 2553rd birth day of Sri.Buddha. ]
