Equanomity

'Sthitha pragna' or Equanomity

Who is not having the problem?
Who is not having the pain?
Who is not in difficulty? ...
All have got
their own story to tell.
Yet some are
so vast hearted
that they keep
the thorns
to themselves silently
n give petals to others.
Yet some have
such depth of the soul
that they keep
the toxic poison
for themselves silently
n elixir for others..
they cross the ocean of life
rafting against all tides
with equanomity
n balanced consciousness
or stitha pragna.
They are leaves of
the branch of the tree
known as Shiv.
