Soul Musings-I

By A J Manoj

Soul Musings by A.J. Manoj, a collection of poems in free verse, is a self-exploration into the innermost recesses of his mind to overcome the fragmented sense of being. The poet's emotional spurts reflect his predicament juxtaposed with the realities of life and the subsequent flights of fancy. The poem captures the different emotions experienced by the poet and his views on universal topics like beauty, desire, patience, nature, relationship, love and prayer. The poet has employed a simple and lucid style to articulate profound truths. The lines of these poems will touch a chord with all those who face strife in life. One of the reasons why it is worthy of appreciation is the poet's positive outlook towards life and acknowledgement of the strength that he gains from the presence of the Lord. He refrains from lamenting about his worries and focuses on the diehard belief of seeing the goodness in the intrinsic and incomprehensible plans of the higher soul. 'Soul Musings' beautifully encapsulates the poet's journey into the self, struggle with harsh realities, seeking and eventually accepting the all-pervading presence of the Lord and emerging with renewed vigor to face life. It is a patchwork quilt of strong emotions and faithfully records the ups and downs in the poet's life and reinforces the need to do soul search to accomplish anything in life.

"The greatest truth lies in knowing

one's inner self.

Complete healing takes over

Only with the help of the Divine "
