She considers this book as her open confessions manifesting from her subconscious mind.This book also brings forth, social and global issues that touch the Human race, as a whole.Through her poems, the poet has also pointed out that the connection to the Divine energy,that is God, is the best cure to all sufferings and the priceless means to recognizing real joy and leading a peaceful life. The poems in this book have been written by blending elements of modern and traditional poetry. Some have a rhyming pattern. Others are purely in free verse. "Life is like a river. It flows and we cannot stop it. The stages of life, that is, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age naturally flow. No human with a normal life span can skip any of those parts.As far as there is life, happiness and sorrows will always keep on flowing. And it is only by going at the depth of this river-like life that we can see, understand and accept our lives as they truly are.This book is divided into two parts: Life and God/Spirituality. Some of the poems in the first section are based on my personal experiences and they have been expressed as open confessions, and can be considered as the manifestation of my subconscience. Other poems bring the social and global issues touching the lives of the whole human race and these poems have been written as philosophical reflections.

Much emphasis has also been laid on the undeniable fact that in this hectic mundane life, real peace, solace and joy can only be achieved by remaining connected to the Divine.Poetry is also like a river. It is the flow of communication from the poet's pen to the hearts and souls of the readers. It invites the readers to first swim at the surface and then dive deep down to explore new horizons, new perceptions and new thoughts. Thus, the river-like Poetry can transform individual human beings as well as a whole society by broadening their knowledge and awareness. This in turn can lead to positive change, innovation and continuous progress in the world.May the Divine Light enlighten the soul of each human being!May each creature on Earth be blessed with love, peace and joy!"Vatsala RadhakeesoonApril 2017

Download or read book World Light written by Halldor Laxness and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magnificently humane novel from the acclaimed Icelandic Nobel Prize winner: as an unloved foster child on a farm in rural Iceland, Olaf Karason has only one consolation, the belief that one day he will be a great poet. The indifference and contempt of most of the people around him only reinforces his sense of destiny, for in Iceland poets are as likely to be scorned as they are to be revered. Over the ensuing years, Olaf comes to lead the paradigmatic poet’s life of poverty, loneliness, ruinous love affairs and sexual scandal. But he will never attain anything like greatness. As imagined by Nobel Prize winner Halldor Laxness in this extraordinary novel, what might be cruel farce achieves pathos and genuine exaltation. For as Olaf’s ambition drives him onward—and into the orbits of an unstable spiritualist, a shady entrepreneur, and several susceptible women—World Light demonstrates how the creative spirit can survive in even the most crushing environment and even the most unpromising human vessel.

Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H.

Download or read book Desiderata written by Max Ehrmann and published by . This book was released on 2002-10 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written 75 years ago, Desiderata achieved fame as the anthem of the sixties' hippie-dom - the subject of many millions of posters and handbills - and famously narrated by Les Crane in his 1971 song version of the poem. Over the years Desiderata has provided a kind and gentle philosophy, a refreshing perspective on life's bigger picture. This new presentation of the prose poem will bring it to the attention of a new generation. The origins of Desiderata were, for many years, shrouded in mystery. Once thought to have originated from St. Paul's Church in Baltimore, Maryland in the seventeenth century it was later discovered that American poet Max Ehrmann had written it in 1927. Presented in a refreshingly modern design, Desiderata will appeal to a younger generation looking to find the meaning of life, and to baby-boomers who'll recall Desiderata from their youth.
