Nothing is otiose here

Silence is a hundred times stronger than sound,

Unwritten word bearing calm with charge of fate;

Oh the miracle when meet man and woman,

A soul from the occult sky jumping into birth!

Undaunted by death to conquer mortality

An infallible will has prepared the worksheet;

Nothing is thoughtless, otiose in the scheme

Originating from the idea that’s real.

न किञ्चिदत्र निष्प्रयोजनम्

शान्तिः ध्वनितः शतगुणः बलवत्तरः,

दैवप्रभारयुक्तं निश्चलतां वहन् अलिखितं वचनम्;

अहो चमत्कारः यदा पुरुषः स्त्री च मिलति,

जन्मे कूर्दन् गूढ आकाशात् आत्मा!

मर्त्यतां जितुमृत्युना अभयम्

अमोघः इच्छापत्रं कार्यपत्रं सज्जीकृतवती अस्ति;

न किमपि अविचारितं, योजनायां निष्प्रयोजनम्

तत् वास्तविकं इति उद्देश्यात् उत्पन्नम् ।

    Nothing is otiose here is so true and well presented in this eight line poem. This proclamation brings out the real purpose and meaning behind reincarnation. The underpinning of power is very well said in first two lines of the the poem. it’s manifestation in miracle of birth and the course of the soul after every birth and death. Yes, its’ a grand scheme lead by the Truth.

    You have presented this great subject in these few chosen words. You have achieved the desired effect by saying nothing is otiose here. This poem has come from all embracing and caring heart. Kudos to you.
