What Is Reality? Poem by Ramesh T A

What is reality and what is illusion in the world?
What is permanent is reality and what's not is illusion;
People, world, Moon, Stars and planets are all illusion;
Like perishable commodities, they all have lifespan!

There is limit and time for everything everywhere;
After that they are no more to be seen anywhere..;
That is reality and if we don't believe and see truth,
We are absorbed by images of illusion and ignorant!

Sentiment, emotion and feelings are impermanent;
Thoughts and spiritualism show reality and truth;
They all seem to be vague and unbelievable here;
For, this world and all forms are only illusions!

Enjoy life like the food we eat to satisfy hunger;
Use all things for survival till the end and leave
The world free with satisfaction for total freedom
Only soul can bring which is reality we should realize!
