Nachiketa’s Dream – 10th November 2025

The boy,
too curious,
gets sent from the room.

Confused,
he wanders the wheat fields,
letting the sun in.

Lulled to sleep
with his thoughts,
many questions
float along the river.

He is walking
towards his grandfather.

“On reading, ‘you’ no longer exist

The cock crows

Energy transformed holds no fear
of the temporary canvas

The art of ‘you’ imprinted
on the fabric of reality

Belonging to consciousness
inseparable

Recognise there’s no escape

Seeing through the mirage
finding ‘you’ have always been free….”
