Due to emotion, intellect becomes obstacle in decision making. But we should concentrate in developing spiritual values. We can feel pure mind and stability and take nice decisions. Solution lies in pure mind. An excellent poem is well penned...5 stars.

In silence we feel the creation and creator. We hear Krishna's flute sound and we hear his call. In silence we feel his love and motivation. Silence is very powerful to give us power. Thank you very much for writing this lovely poem. Hare Krishna!

i think i get the gist of what you mean. Now i know why my SUPERIOR intellect does not always arrive at a " good" solution! All kidding aside, " thinking outside the box" can lead to surprisingly good solutions, .......as well as bad ones. If " bad" , brainstorming may come in handy bri :) bri :)

The poem unfolds the infinite potential of human intellect and human mind. Since man is not a machine, he needs the help of both to present 3-D interpretations. Thanks and Congrats, Savita ji.

An astute observation on the power of our intellect. Very perceptive write. So very true. Sometimes our intellect can make things complicated. And in silence of mind, possible solution can come just like a thief in the night. A great poem well thought - out and conveyed. Congratulations, Savita for a well deserved accolade.
