---The current of happiness--

 The wild whisper wind sings the song of divinity

The night sky opens its wonders of vastness

All the glowing brighter circles show their power of eternity

They wink and blink to guide in the endless journey of darkness

As if some luminous beings show the right path in the society.

The mind becomes wider and deeper in the center of calmness

More and more blazing circles appear on the orbit of immenseness

When thoughts come to a point of concentration

The awakening inner mind releases its unsolved imagination

About the creator of those countless energetic circles

Being the mightiest and amaranthine one.

The answer flashes on the screen of the inner soul

That the enchanting alluring circular eyes of Lord Jagannath

Which behold all such wondrous creation.

 THE ROSE OF LOVE ----

The rose of love in unfading way,

Speaks of its ambrosial and mystical joy.

The love comes to all with a pleasant force,

But nobody knows its shape and source.

Love is the smile of a baby with endless charm,

Or jumping to mother’s embracing arms.

Love is the mother’s acceptance of kicks in bliss,

While feeding the baby with an adoring kiss.

Love is the pray for others in mosque, church or temple,

And the helping hands of a friend to a friend in trouble.

The selfless service for mankind with a smile,

Or sensing the soul being lost in nature’s beauty for a while.

The dancing dawn of magnificent hues,

That comes from the immortal light of vast blues,

Or the rapturous greetings of the setting sun,

Builds on earth, its grandeur love with endless fun.

The crowning head of the Himalaya for touching sky,

Never forgets to behold the symbol of love in its fly,

Munificently bow itself becoming the Ganga river,

That takes its role to serve all as a loving mother.

The selfless devotion of Radha from her surrendering soul,

In a constant attraction for Krishna as her unconditional goal,

Or the transformed saints into Gopis form in divine joyful play,

And merging of Meera in oneness with Shyam in her besotted pray.

She is not herself now as being entwined with Shyam in love,

Everything in her eyes now seems to be the cast of love and love,

‘The sea, mountains, the aura, myself (Meera) and my acts have become love,

Because You are love the Divine Joy (Raasa) and I am born from you with love’.

When Lord Jagannath leaves His throne to Embrace us All,(Raasa Leela)

In His kind eyes, steals our sorrowful tears before that fall,

And blossoms in our soaked lips with a smile of happiness,

Filling all our heart with endless love of sweetness.

The transcendent flavour of the rose from the merciful ocean,

Being embodied as the nature of the Supreme of all creation,

Sows its seeds of ultimate divine bliss in our heart’s cave,

To bloom agelessly in different colours of love.

 THE GREEN BOOTS ---------

Walking on the clouds on the way to climb the summit,

With the Green Boots that you bought for me,

Step after step, move forward guided by your immense love.

The ephemeral flakes of the clouds over the peaks portray elusive images,

Presenting the miraculous mirth on the snow mountain,

The inkling of the sun makes the melting mist in timorous face,

And the rainbow in its smile, showers prismatic jewels over the white bedspread.

The white damsels stretch their welcoming hands in demure demeanor,

When I see you in the middle in brilliant attire with splendorous look,

The scented savor of the blooming trees of the lower mountains,

That carried in the touching wild wind from far distance,

Reminds me secretly your unbridled hairs wrapping over my face,

And my mind filled with joy, inspires the legs to climb further.

When the nature unveils its untamed beauty being close to heart,

Your words flash in mind as The beauty is experienced in nature and in soul,

But not in manmade structural form or in bodily shape,

That dwindles in time but true beauty sings its immortal song in eternity’s touch.

The serenading song of the dancing mist in the lips of the mountain,

Makes my chilling heart filled with blazing warmth,

When playful sun decorates the virgin peaks in golden and orange caparison,

My uplifting soul feels you and captures the majestic beauty in your eyes.

The remembering mind makes the heart soaked in yearning,

The submerged sweet words arise under the layers of mind,

The loving promise I made to you in that full moon night,

To pluck the moon from the sky as a gift for you.

The dawn decors itself as the moon returns back,

A sudden splendor emerges in mystical, mythical and magical way,

On the white ocean with the standing white angels in circle,

As if in meditative gaze to The sleeping God on the snow bed in smiling slumber.

A marvelous blaze looked down from ecstasy’s sky,

Signaled as if my arrival on worlds of deathless bliss, master’s home,

The footfalls of the returning summiteers faded away,

A happy back home with winning flag to their beloved’s waiting arms.

My steps stopped to move further with the eyes to close forever,

And behind the darkness of the closed eyes,

Manifested at once an immense flash of light to inner gaze,

When soul released itself from the motionless perching body.

Being assured by the inner sense as this is the heaven,

The soul enunciated me of inner journey of meeting myself,

And the mountain opened its hidden treasure of Elysian land,

When the supernal sense knocked the inner door of heaven.

In flaming beats of an undying love,

Invading the absolute joy in domain of cosmic rapturous revelry,

With scenes of sweetness and serene calm that can never fade,

Wait with a moon studded home, a gift for you,

When you would return after living your blissful span.

  The Divine Play ----

Forgetting all the worldly charm and pleasure,

Being away from all the loved ones,

Rushing and running from hundreds miles,

Without caring the lashes from the forces,

These millions devotees today find their destination path.

Lamenting since the infinite ages for their desired master,

Yearning for the final meeting in the life time,

To satiate the thirsty soul with the divine nectar,

That showers from His mystical round eyes.

Beholding only one desire in the longing mind,

Leaving all the earning assets way behind,

The psyche seeks seer merging with those enchanting eyes,

Where all the creations find their emanating home,

As all His conceptions have that form.

The blue beauty with endless charm would come,

To perform the divine play with all the craving creatures,

Who are bonded with their melting emotions and devoted love,

When His mesmerizing glance in the magical and sibylline way,

Would take away all the grief that suffocates the suffering souls.

The day of union once in a year in the exotic Lord’s kingdom ,

And time to be bewitched in those enthralling eyes ,

And to be lost forever in the superlative current for divine joy,

Being inebriated and intoxicated in the Lord Jagannath’s rapturous romance,

As it is the ultimate wish for every human being.

The master shows His original manifest of the joyful color,

When joy is His only identity and all are made from this flower,

As all the mortals follow that flavour and happiness all the time by nature.

The inimitable and empyreal feelings make all entranced and enraptured,

As if all are in the land of heaven and land of endless joy,

When the lord comes and engages all in His divine play,

As it is the only land of beauty, joy, truth and eternity,

When He wished to stay here manifesting as human being,

And to play His ethereal act with all his beings.

He began His world of entities from this land of Blue Ocean,

To fill the love and bliss in every human heart,

Enriching all to spread this precious virtue among the human race,

With enticing all to merge in His divine play with no discrimination and difference,

As all are created from His supreme wish of magnificence.

..On the occasion of Car Fesival ( Rath Yatra )...

 ---THE LOST LIGHT---

The empty heart seeks that emerald jewel,

The only pristine and agile treasure,

With the blossoming charm of endless flavour,

Once you gifted it from your divine chamber.

It was the passionate play of the ignorant youth,

The pretentious invite of the beauteous desire,

Losing the gifted gem in the seditious smile,

And never knew about the last period coming so near.

Heaps of sand dune in the cover of unreal pleasure,

That dwindle in the blow of stormy pressure,

With a lifeless mind of burning scars,

Filling inside with its sorrowful tears.

The day of your grand and glorious union to embrace all,

Who come so far to have your glimpse in the final call,

And to touch that ropes of your adoring arms,

Being caught in your conjuring charm.

The bliss and joy shower in the yelling prays,

As the eyes merge in your magical eyes,

The mind surrenders in the unconditional way,

And the lost light of love reappears being charged in your ray.

 THE DIVINE PROJECTION ----

Every street, every path, the presence is everywhere,

Gone is that amorous play of rising sun and unblemished nature,

A beautiful face is shadowed under the thick tresses,

As if, the lustrous moon in the eclipse of darkness.

The ebullient dream dies before it finds it’s real shape,

And the lips stop, leaving behind the untold and unfinished lines.

The panic nestles in every mind for the great annihilation,

And the helpless lives are enveloped in horrifying holes,

When early eyes close forever in the grave of devastation.

The evil force proclaims its power absorbing all in intense way,

The fear of death knocks everyone putting all in lock and chain,

From elite to common, and destitute to royal in the same condition.

The world breaks the rules of divinity that was for humankind,

Being eulogized in the smoke of supremacy and enormity,

And all the lines of inhumanity are crossed with pride and vanity.

The greed and ego hold the command with all its inborn mates like violence and intolerance,

And the welfare of mankind is transformed to destruction of human race,

The caring of the sole provider is forgotten in the name of progression,

As the Mother Nature finds no escape from the eyes and minds of cruel human.

A beautiful garden once smiled in the hands of the Creator,

The best tree He planted with care was the Human being,

And gifted love as the sweetest fruit filling all His sweetness to get happiness,

But that vanished in the vices and voices of the evil force,

When the darkness wanes the sunshine and radiant night sky.

The hope and faith now assure the introspective mind to look inside,

The undying morality finds that precious fruit again to save humanity with kind and care,

Once again, good would triumph over evil of the present time,

Spreading the peace and happiness in every junction,

Which is the eternal truth of the divine projection.

 Wada Kiyatha

-----------------------

Khelte khelte kavi thak jayenge to sab kuchh ruk jayegi, 

Chalta rahega ye jaadu aur bandhti rahegi samaa, 

Vaadiyon ki saaj ke sath dur dur ki gunj aati rahegi,

Matwali hawa ki isharon mein sawan bhi Jhumti rahegi, 

Arzoo ki aangan mein pyar ki phool khilti rahegi, 

Diwani raat ki sine mein kamseen chhand utarti rahegi, 

Wada Kiyatha maine, ye pyar ki silsile chalti rahegi.

Tere Chaman Mein by Rahul

 ------- Tere Chaman Mein---

Choti si phool hun mein ek din simat jana hey,

Tum to sugandh aur sabab ki sagar ho,

Thodi si bund bhar do murchha hua mere pankhari mein,

Khusi se khil jaun tere chaman mein.

Yuhin to tofan aati rahti hey,

Kuchh tukura bhi kho jati hey,

Kavi bahar banke uttar aao mere sine mein, 

Khusi se khil jaun tere chhaman mein.

Har lamha to na ruke gujar jati hey, 

Biti hui mithi chij ko saath le jati hey,

Jera ekbaar nazar milalo choti si zindegi mein, 

Khusi se khil jaun tere chhaman mein.

Malum to hey zindegi lambi nahin,

Dekhta hun to jo aaj hey wo Kal nahin,

Thamlo mujhe aapni bahon mein, 

Kahi zindegi ji lun tere chaman mein.

Bin Tere (by Rahul)

 Bin Tere

‐‐------'xxx-----

Tere pyar mein kitna pagal hun mein,

Tune jo bhar diyatha isk ka suroor kore se dil mein,

Zamanaa se paya bahut kuchh,

Dil to nahin bhara unse kahin, 

Nas nas mein tum jo basi ho.

Jo tere dilkas husn mein hey,

Wo sara aalam pe kahin bhi nahin,

Thodasa fikar karlo jera,

Bahti hui aasoon ko thoda roklo jera,

Kese katun ye pal tere wasl ke bagair,

Farhat nahin milti hayaat mein magar.

Ekbar chhunlo tere haseen aankhon se,

Mitti mein miljaye ye jism sukun se.

          -----         The Divine Union ----- By Rahul

The blue blissful ocean spreads its magical call,

As I sit on the shore with its vastness and endless stretch,

That subtle sublime wave embraces me,

Simmering the beauty of its inner soul.

The game starts when it drenches me all over,

I move little backward to keep myself far,

When it returns in its path in a warming smile,

I wish again in glee to go closer to be touched for a while.

We meet and separate in our continuous play,

That beckons me which is the role in life in our stay,

Being the sailor of this endless journey,

To separate in the process of seraphic union.

Each time this happens in my cyclic history on the land of ocean,

The same feeling springs if not the same wave I last met,

But its whispering words spark in luciferous way,

As being the same one beholding all my footprints on its bay.

The soul mate that once destined to be the part of life,

 Departed somewhere sometime being so near and dear,

But only to come again in another form for a grand union,

This is the mystical charm of life on way to divine heaven.

And unveil the veil of impurity that was so tall

To realize in pure mind about the heavenly game

That all his creations are circular in their form

Which begin and end in those captivating eyes

For which endearingly called Chaka Nayan.(Circular Eyes)

        Tumhare Saath---- by  Rahul (In Hindi)

Kaas mein tumhare saath hota

Tumhari aankhon mein dub kar

Inhi badiyon ki khub surti ko

Aapni man mein uttar pata

Kaas mein tumhare saath hota

Tumhare sanso mein sanso dalkar

Barfili pahadon ki choti mein

Chupi hoyi garmiyon ki aanand le pata

Kaas mein tumhare saath hota

Tumhari baton ki masum pan mein

Halki halki hawa ki jhokein ka

Bansuri ki dhun sun pata

Kaas mein tumhare saath hota

Tumhari muskurana ko dekh kar

Saberay aayi hui suraj mein

Jhalaki hui motiyon ko lut leta

Kaas mein  tumhare saath  hota

Tumhare cheheray mein sama kar

Raaton ki suneli chand mein

Khusi ki besumar leheron mein khil jata.

Discovering The Soul---- By Rahul.

This wandering mind was so thirsty and drifted in aimless goal

Always being drowned in the ocean of desires for the rapturous tranquility

But the magical rays of your blue eyes satiates me in the drinks of bliss

So God exists as I discovered you in his land of endless joy.

The mist was there to lay a screen of smoke to find everything unclear

In the swarming solitude the heart was seeking its mate

The light of rejoice embraced me in the charm of your beauty

So God exists as I discovered you in his land of endless joy .

The fear was there making the friendship with unrest mind

As the time was playing the crustal role for taking away all

Now the wings of your wonder glide me to reach the seven heavens

So God exists as I discovered you in his land of endless joy.

The journey was there on the thorn of fate’s play

Beholding the one for whom life was awaited

The voyage comes to end as I see you in the beauty of eternity

So God exists as I discovered you in his land of endless joy.

    Our Bond- By Rahul

Falling in love with you 

,
Leads me to merge in the endless beauty, calm and pure.

After discovering you,

In the seeking senses of my unquenched soul.

Your presence unveiled  my buried energy of divinity,

And opened all the gates to reach the heaven of beauty and bliss.                                                                                                                                                                                                       

I  remembered as my soul felt the  things  in previous birth ,

That once I committed to you on the dreamland of youth and joy,

To be entangled with you in the intensity of that enrapturing energy,

Also it was to go with you to the Milky way of magnificent vastness,

In the presence of the witnessing bridal nature,

Holding your hand and walking side by side,

To pluck the starry flowers from the trees of paradise,

And to adorn your tress with the golden garland of splendor,

Then to ask the moon to flash your agile beauty in its beaming beams.

That past memories of unforgotten green delight,

In a world of you and me and our undetached union,

When spring and summer embraced each other,

In indolent and soft delicate touches,

And the pale stream rushed like glimmering thread of pearl,

When a whisper of rapture was there among the happy leaves,

And the cool scented breezes capered among the smiling flowers,

As I found you and me in the earth’s womb,                                               

And being connected to you since then with ageless eternal bond..

THE PAST , PRESENT AND FUTURE --- By Rahul

The past grows a tree to embrace the memories to dwell.

And the approaching time welcomes the dreams,

Where the hopes and desires bloom their unlimited flowers, 

As the life sleeps on the pillow of past,

And awakes in the call of future,

To make the present a silky velvet bed.

The soul finds its omniscient mate of bejeweled throne,

Who lives in past memories igniting the present,

To be the breathing treasure in the future.

When your image stops the irresistible soul,

That constantly moves in its cyclic journey,

Then the thirst of wandering mind is quenched forever,

Just as all colors merge to get its source black,

So all forms of desires disappear into your charm,

That is the invisible force of all devouring ages.

The thoughts of consciousness bespeak the lines of love,

 Being clad in your agile primordial warmth,

And free from all coverings of illusions and unhappiness,

Finding eternity in oneness overcoming the gulping time,

Where only stays the moments of love of colorful seasons.

      THE EYES OF HOPE--- By Rahul

When the darkness haunts in its cruel net

Sign of no path becomes invisible

The wavy sadness engulfs me on the ocean of life

I hear the sweet tune of a flute floats from far across

A light emits slowly in its array of charm

That blue eyes pierce its enchanting rays on my gloomy mind

And those lips spread its magical tune touching my frazzled mind

I see the road of hope when that enthralling image flashes dearly

That turmoil waves vanishes with the furious wind

I go on catching myself in the captivation of that wonderful image

The life boat goes on floating to reach the shore of joy

When my soul becomes confined in that blue eyes to explore the eternal bliss.

Celebration in Cuttack home For Gungun Dec 29, 2013

With Biju Pattnaik 'THE SON OF THE SOIL' 1990

---You and Me--- by  Rahul

Since the ages or even when the time was unborn,

A thing of invisible energy in the cosmic play,

Which spread its sweet blazing beauty in the hands of the composer,

And we all unknowingly follow it indefatigably and continuously,

To be soaked in its magical charm in our nameless goal.

It is not found on the roads of physical form,

As being the sweet unseen feeling,

That our soul possesses to reflect in the mind.

It comes under the disguise of many images,

That our mere eyes never be able to understand,

Only the mirror of insight indicates what is it.

The buoyant smile of Krishna in its mystical enchant,

Or the mesmerizing tune of his playing flute,

And the devotion of Radha’s incessant faith,

Or in her solely entwined union in the calmness of beauty,

All that speak of the same energy of eternity,

Leads to merge in the endless beauty, calm and pure.

Like that I feel the same force after discovering you,

In the seeking senses of my unquenched soul,

Your presence unveiled my buried energy of divinity,

And opened all the gates to reach the heaven of beauty and bliss.

I remembered as my soul felt the things in previous birth,

That once I committed to you on the dreamland of youth and joy,

To be entangled with you in the intensity of that enrapturing energy,
