Thiru Valluvar is talking about practical love making, SLN...no sixth or seventh sense involved there in the Kural...thanks
yes Samanyan. Love is the soul of all senses. A great Kural and you have wonderfully done it in English.
The concept of love is synonym with our heart. Love comes natural and then only the act of love. The act of love doesn't reinforce love but only expresses the love that is ALREADY in our heart. The difference is to be distinguished. Let us have one firm view- that our great ancient poets are never wrong when they have made certain statements. It is only that we do not grasp the idea with our little brains.
written in a very refined and novel way...probably your best!
Another impressive write, samanyan, cleverly written on a different aspect of our senses. In our Wesern world, we regard the sixth sense as ESP, the ability to feel and know someone else's thoughts and feelings. And when one is in love, as your poems suggests, that sense is very acute, as it should be. I liked this fine poem very much. Carl.
Love is of different kinds. Love for sister and brother and love for wife are not one and the same. Love for animal and love for God are different. The word love is not meant for sexual pleasures only, but has got more higher spiritual meaning. It is said Love is God and God is love. The final moral of the poem is the bliss in the higher sense of love, as it means.
Very passionate. There is great joy in living life to the fullest. 10, for you. Warm regards, Sandra
The physical faculties of man used in a poetic images and wisdom..........adding another two to derived from the fleeting bliss offering in the act...10+++
Excellent reasoning used throughout and the seventh 'sense' - bliss is truly one of my favourite words..... full of meaning and deserves 10 and more - - -Fay
with the pleasure..all the senses are present...well narrated..great concept...10
For those the present life is the first and last, five senses are enough to have that pleasure! But for those who believe many births and lives will rely on Spirit which is the activating force of all senses is true and for them only the lasting bliss is attainable soon! Your poem provokes that thought and so, it is a nice read to the readers!
as i read this poem of yours, as if i read mine..tho you have details, mine don't have..nice piece..7th sense is maybe not recorded..but if you consider love as another sense..then, its a poet's choice..nice job..naizz
Go on with other Kurals also...a valuable attempt...God bless you
