In Stillness of Being, his sixth anthology of poems, Indian-American poet, Maharaj Kaul, describes the human conditions we all must experience.

In the poems:

Stillness Of Being

The World I left Behind

A Struggling Dream Never Complete

Hope Never Blinks

Life Is A Playground

Dreams

A Spiral Of Time

Music Of Earth Will Never Die

The Paradox Of God

Beloved

and fifty more, the poet reflects on the joys, dreams, suffering, and will to live a man experiences though the grand and mysterious process called human life.

From the poem Stillness of Being:

Mind plots revolutions,

But inner being wants harmony.

 

Life came with music,

But world moves by agenda.

 

Childhood was a pristine dream,

But wisdom turned that into a project.

 

Ambitions vault our existence,

Energy seethes from our pores.

 

But we came with a faith,

Our elements beckon tranquility.

 

There is a more sublime state than success,

World wants tumult but soul seeks stillness.
