A LOOK AT LIFE-151
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

THE WHOLE

I love transition,
change and impermanence,
coz i live in them,
accept them as part of me
and my reality.
Nothing from a distance
looks as permanent as
change and impermanence.
I love these when i am not me.

I love status quo,
stagnation and permanence
when i am me.
How can i change
who has neither birth nor death?
How can i be impermanent
who is beyond relativity,
the absolute reality.

Reality looks different,
seems to be changing all the while
depending upon my position
and angle of vision.
The whole seems to be composed of parts,
changing and transforming
coz i do not see it as me

Vision and perception
will keep on changing
till i identify with
change and impermanence
till i become you all,
till i, we, you, he, she, they
become one,
the all-pervasive I
