Sat Chit Anand!

"Unknown"

The three essence of life-
Read the explanation of the logo at Here.
Taken from Manav Seva Sangh!
Atma, Parmatma and Jivatma,*
Defining the universe in a trice!

Sometimes in the literature when they try to define
God and His nature they say only three Lines
     Sat- The only existing Truth
         Chit- The consciousness within,
              Anand- The eternal unending Love....

We have always been three,
my father, mother and me,
Became the double after my union with thee!


*
Atma- आत्मा  meaning soul.
Parmatma- परमात्मा  meaning God!
Jivatma- जीवात्मा meaning collective union of all souls in the universe!

  1. I love the idea of mother, father and child "doubling" into three. ;-)

  2. This is a very interesting definition of spirituality, and I like how you personalized it in the final stanza.

  3. Thank you, Arushi, for explaining the "Atma, Parmatma and Jivatma [those three]." I was going to Google them until I got to the bottom here. It reads nice, I like the thought, "father, mother and me [us three]."
    BTW, my children and grandkids have been attending the All Souls Church in London. It is jam packed every Sunday morning, at least for the many services we have attended.

  7. A welcoming sort of poem--that's how it feels: here's the essence, here's God, welcome to my family. I hate when tweety bird sits on what I'm reading and writing, but in the spirit of your poem I will welcome it too.

  9. Numbers in religion often have many "hidden' meanings - I have always found that fascinating.
