Buddha Poornima

Today is Buddha Poornima, the full moon day 

It’s said Buddha got enlightenment on this day.

He is held the tenth embodiment  of the Divine

The only one who isn’t mythological, so to say.


Enlightenment, well, is recklessly tossed about 

It’s everywhere, from coffee table to self doubt.

It is not entanglement or its copy or its travesty 

Nonchalantly, it’s a distant cry for any gadabout.


It’s beyond the realm of the physical and mental

It is also beyond what revs the duo, their mantle.

Enlightenment is an alignment with the creation 

In which the seeker & creation are complemental.


The job of the moon is that of a catalytic mentor 

The moon factors in, whatever may be the factor.

Full moon fast forwards on full throttle, & hence

Whoever needs last ditch effort, is the benefactor!


Buddha had worked on himself for six years, and 

He was immediately in need of the last push, and 

It happened, in totality. Everybody stood blessed:

Moon, river, pipal, virgin, kheer!What a Godsend!


Om Shantih 

Ajit Sambodhi.
