Arise, awake, Seek out,
The Great Ones to know Truth ineffable,
As dangerous as the Razor’s edge,
So is the path difficult to cross,

I walk on the Razor’s edge alone,
The path is narrow, the way Unknown.
Imagine not the way is easy,
It is long, ardous, dangerous, difficult!

Go and seek out the Seers,
Whose body is full of Bliss,
Who enjoys Immortality,
Whose body knows the warmth !

The subtle warmth of the Serpent Power,
As it rises from the Base Chakra
To the Crown Chakra !
Enjoying Bliss Celestial !

The cows symbolise the Upanishads
They were all milked by the Lord
The milk thus obtained is Geetha,
The Great Song of Eternity !

The Upanishad sung by the Lord,
The Science of the Absolute,
The Scripture of the Yogis,
And the Lamp lit by the Lord !

At the altar of humanity,
To save humanity from Evil,
To take man to immortality,
To Eternity & Peace Heavenly !

A scripture allegorical,
Symbolic of the inner war,
Happening in the human bosom,
Between the conflicting Good and Evil !

Verse beginning with Dharma Kshetre,
Dharma Kshetra is the body human,
Where the Great Battle is waged,
Between Good and Evil, Prosperity & Adversity !

Duryodhana is Lust,
Dussasana is Anger,
Intellect is Arjuna,
The Self is Krishna !

Know then the Self is the Charioteer,
The chariot is the human body,
The horses five are the organs five,
And mind the reigns !

We are the place where,
The great battle is fought,
The great struggle for supremacy
Between Light and Darkness,

Between Prosperity and Adversity
Between the great forces of Love
And the great forces of Lust
Betwixt Love of Power & the Power of Love !

Let the Power of Love win !
Over the lust and love of Power
Liberate us, O All Compassionate !
Only Thee can liberate !

In this great battle, depicted by the poets
As Epic Poetry, Iliad and Odyssey,
Ramayana and Mahabharata,
The Self is His great transparent mirror !

Directing and controlling the show throughout,
This cosmic play, this mighty show,
Is willed by the Self in its totality
And perpetually entertained!

He resides as the Self in the chariot,
Of the human body, directing,
The five organs of sense, instructing
The intellect discriminative, to wage war eternal !

Against the enemies formidable
Lust, greed, anger, jealousy,
Sloth, covetousness, gluttony,
Inherent in the bosom human,

With Love ineffable He makes us victorious,
With the qualities positive, aligned to Love !
Negative qualities make a strategic retreat,
How can they thrive in atmosphere divine !

Indian Mythology is 400,000 verses,
Can you believe a man wrote that ?
Vyasa wrote treatises eighteen,
The adumbration of all truths philosophic !

The major treatise mythological
Is Bhagavata, of 18000 verses
Was condensed into verses 1008
By the genius of Melpathur

Out of the eighth mythological treatise,
The Markandeya arose
The great Devi Mahatmyam
Extolling the Power Divine !

The Prakriti of the Purusha !
The Power Divine which is immanent,
As Love in all created beings,
Prema Roopena Samsthitha !

 The Power Divine which is the Universe
The Power Divine which is Life, Mind, Matter,
The Power Divine which is Being, Knowledge, Bliss,
The Power Divine which is all in all !

Out of the mighty epic Ramayana,
Arose the Aditya Hridayam,
Extolling the Solar Consciousness
The Inner Sun of all, the Absoute Self !

Solar Consciousness is everywhere
Is the synonym of Consciousness Cosmic
Is the synonym of Witness Consciousness
Or the I AM Consciousness transcedent !

Lakhs of verses adorn Siddhanta,
Lakhs of verses adorn Hora
Lakhs of verses adorn Samhita
Philosophy Indian is crores of slokas !

Giving the book "The Razors's Edge", my Uncle's friend asked him,
"Do you know anything about this book ?". My Uncle shook his head.
He was told " It is the Upanishads".
