There Is Only Air

There is only air
between my skin
and the forest.
Indeed, I am
part of the forest,
and the forest
is part of me.

All His Passion

All his passion
and desire
flow into
the keyboard.

Sri Aurobindo

Sri Aurobindo
said that we
would eventually
become something
other than human.
But what
will that something
be?

And where
is he?

Like a Figure from El Greco

Like a figure from El Greco,
the proportions
are wrong.
Too tall,
too thin,
he is only visiting
this dimension.

Dhuni

The dhuni, the fire pit,
is smokeless,
but the soul
is not.

धूनी, अग्नि कुंड
निर्धूम है,
लेकिन आत्मा
नहीं है।

L'autre origine du monde

The other origin
of the world
is an equal partner
in the adventure
of life,
not boss,
not king,
not god.

Both origins
are gifts
to each other
and to themselves.


L'autre origine
du monde
est un partenaire égal
dans l'aventure
de la vie,
pas patron,
pas roi,
pas dieu.

Les deux origines
sont des cadeaux
l'une à l'autre
et à elles-mêmes.
