Rudra - Ravens Of Paradise

The sorrow is unbearable when countless desires devour me Life is but a worthless mime which robs away my peace of mind I now renounce this crown of thorns called Dharma But this wanting madness never ends! Not even in paradise! Nothing is worth seeking when everything is relative I see all reduced to nothing; ashes seem to be its essence Oscillating between pleasure and pain The futility of Karmas is glaring This pain ushers realization that these swans are indeed ravens Thus Vairagya set me free Viveka shall set me free Om bhurbhuvah svah sannyastam maya Mumukshutvam shall set me free Shatka Sampat can set me free Recognize the elusive pleasure in all Recognize the deadening pain in all Realize where there is mind even in paradise one can't be free Ashimahi vayam bhikshamashavaso vasimahi Shayimahi mahiprshthe kurvimahi kimishvaraih "Face covered with wrinkles, head painted white with grey hair, The limbs so feeble, yet desire alone stays youthful"
