Pari Mahal, a vision of an unfathomable mystery –
\nAn eye on the cosmic phenomenon.<\/p>\n
The fantasy to revisit Pari Mahal had a genesis during my first visit.<\/p>\n
No previous visits to it prepares you for it,
\nEvery time it affords a new vision of its mystery and aura <\/p>\n
–
\nConjuring new themes.<\/p>\n
From a pivotal fold of Zabarwan Mountains
\nLooms a perch for a celestial vision,
\nAn outpost for the search for eternity and the essence of the human soul.<\/p>\n
Looking out of Pari Mahal everything looks wrapped in a fog,
\nA mystery deeply convoluted to defy easy understanding.
\nIt is a vision as well as a mystery –
\nEach person chooses his own view and salvation.<\/p>\n
What is Pari Mahal: Dara Shikwa\u2019s glorious outpost on the reflections on cosmos?
\nOr a cosmic laboratory to fathom the heavens?<\/p>\n
Why did she not come to the tryst?
\nDeep commitments to the world:
\nTo its chaos and illusory promises?
\nHer absence haunts me as well as scares me:
\nMan lives by illusions and for them.<\/p>\n
I waited for her in deep expectations,
\nAs without her nothing is complete in my life,
\nShe is the wheel that spins everything.<\/p>\n
Look at Dal Lake from Pari Mahal:
\nA reverie immersed in a mystery,
\nA dream still in the throes of its nascent birth,
\nA vision still fulminating in its final message.<\/p>\n
At Pari Mahal time recedes to a private count,
\nUnknown ascends to a palpable gravity,
\nMystery never lifts its blinding halo,
\nExistence seems to be an extension of the universe,
\nNirvana feels to be to be the breath. of life.<\/p>\n
Birth and death seem to be the same at Pari Mahal.
\nPari Mahal has become an element of my soul,
\nAn icon of my search for the meaning of life.<\/p>\n
