What is Spiritualism? What is Divinity?
Is it the Obvious or is it the Symbolic?
This anthology of 12 poems takes us on a spiritualistic transportation from the obvious to the symbolic. As we delve into some well-known facets of Krishna's life we begin to see reflections of modern day emotions and situations, the outpouring of pain and suffering, and the spiritual aspect of Love.
This book is also an ensemble of photographs of the deities of the Parthasarathy temple in Chennai. The pictures provide the perfect accompaniment to the poetry in terms of passion, variety, symbolism, poetic artistry and beauty.
So, come readers, come fall in Love with Krishna.
Sunshine to Sunshine, each syllable, each burst of light, a note of the heart
Orchestrated by the Flautist, the years of our life His sheet music.
The tryst with divinity, what began as a futile, endless search,
But eventually reaching a crescendo, converging with the intrinsic being,
With the images speaking and the words flowing into optical manifestations,
A conscious awareness illumining the truth that the divinity so sought after
Lay in that quintessential word — Me.
