Awakening by Ashok K. Bhargava There are no illusions here. Listen to the silence as it echoes around you. Do you know what I mean? I am the elements. For, I am the earth. I am the sky. I am the fire. I am the water. I am the wind. I come and I go, as I wish. My signs are everywhere. For, I am the sun. I am the moon. I am the mountain. I am the river. I am the forest. Nothing is beyond me. I transcend all. For, I am the man. I am the woman. I am the beast. I am the fish. I am the feast. All are in me and I am in all. I am the essence of existence. For, I am the sound. I am the sight. I am the smell. I am the touch. I am the taste. Nothing escapes me. I have many names, None fits me very well, But none is my true name anyway, So what’s the difference? I think, therefore I am. About the author Ashok K.
