Religion is not a blind faith
but is a summation of scientific explanations.
All living objects are manifestations of God,
to serve them is the highest worship.
To earn one's bread honestly is the highest religion.
To be genuine to oneself is the highest duty.
A good worker is the true follower of scriptures.
A care-taker knows the hymns well.
Self-criticism and self-rectification are the laws of religion.
Self-sacrifice is her rhythm.
Love, truth, peace and sympathy are her gigantic waves.
Unity is her essence.
Hinduism comes out from the black hole
and shines like the Almighty sun.
Her rays are like the fire of truth-
their energies are like the experimental science.
The age-old darkness of universe is driven away forever.
Lord Rama and Lord Krishna got combined together
to form a single entity- Sri Ramakrishna Deva,
an universal religion came into being.
This universe is resting on a white lotus,
the petals of which are protecting it from
hatred, ego, violence and agony.
Every word of this poem is like ambrosia to the parched souls as it comes to us through the message propagated by Shri Ramakrishna Paramhans based on our ancient thought and scriptures. It brings solace to the reader. The religion distances itself from 'hatred, ego, violence and agony' as mentioned in the concluding lines. Thanks a lot.
