So pure- but arduous to attain!

The beautiful lotus. This poem is about the lotus which is our national flower and a complete flower according to the poet. Very true. The lotus though submerged firmly in the muddy pond remains unpolluted everglowing.

Beautiful description of an eternally inspiring Lotus flower. Currently we have the temple closed but your poem took me to Lakshmi pooja and homam. Beautiful pick lotus flowers offered to fire....at once a meditative and somber view of life to merge into. Few days back I read Rajneesh Manga’s translation that brought me to your poem. Wonderful work of translation he has done.

मेरी प्रबल इच्छा थी कि मैं इस खुबसूरत रचना का हिंदी अनुवाद प्रस्तुत करूँ लेकिन अपरिहार्य कारणों से यह काम काफी समय तक लंबित रहा. आज दैवयोग से यह काम पूर्णता को प्राप्त हुआ. अनुवाद कैसा है, यह तो आप सुधिजन ही बेहतर बता सकते हैं. इस पृष्ठ के नीचे दिए गए लिंक के ज़रिये आप कविता के हिंदी अनुवाद तक पहुँच सकते हैं. आशा है डॉ गीता का भी इसे अनुमोदन मिलेगा. धन्यवाद.

A marvelous poem that has a meaningful message. A vivid depiction of the beauty and wonderful attributes of Lotus. Yes, like a lotus we can still stand firm and be a beautiful person amid hardships, darkness and poverty. A beautifully crafted write imbued with wisdom.
