THE COSMIC VOICE
Suppose you are travelling in a bus,
comparable to living
In a house
In the bus, people are talking,
And some are fighting too over space
In human homes,
You can listen to the clamour
Of understandings and misunderstandings
Now, suppose you are standing
On the road,
And that bus passes by you
You do not hear anything
Except the sound of the bus
When it passes
Cutting the winds
In that sound is blended
All the sounds that are raised
Inside the bus
The voice ….shoooooooooon,
Overrides all the voices
In which everything
Human and mechanical sinks
The voices and the noise that we create
Sinks into the voice of the planets
Which move like packed buses
Giving out a unified sound of
Óoooooooooooooooooooooo
This is the voice of the void
The cosmic voice in which
All the individual voices
Of men, animals, birds, beasts,
Winds, oceans and mountains
Are finally sunk.
…….
OM
Jernail S Aanand
Oooooooooooooooo
is the Vedic voice,
The cosmic voice
Of the Void
Which is constant.
When it enters Me, or Em,
It connects the two spheres
The Cosmos and the Living Entity
It is OM.
When this cosmic voice
Ooooooooooo
enters man,
It is stilled for some time
Because of the noise of human bones
How we express stillness?
A hush …..sh…shhh…shhh..
So,here it is
Ooooosh…….
But soon man dies and this voice
Retains its journey
Again…Oooooooo
Now we out it all together.
It is
Oooooooshoooooooo (Osho)
Dr. Jernail Singh Anand, with an opus of 190 plus books, is Laureate of the Seneca, Charter of Morava, Franz Kafka and Maxim Gorky awards. His name adorns the Poets’ Rock in Serbia. Anand is a towering literary figure whose work embodies a rare fusion of creativity, intellect, and moral vision. He’s not just an Indian author but a global voice, challenging readers to confront the complexities of existence while offering hope through art and ethics.
If Tagore is the serene sage of a colonial past, Anand is the fiery prophet of a chaotic present. Recently he dedicated his collection of 12 epics Epicacia Vol 1 and Vol 2 to Serbia and Dr Maja Herman Sekulic. His evolving oeuvre, from the Mahakaal Trilogy to the Cosmic Trilogy cements his status as a visionary poet-philosopher, comparable to Wordsworth in his moral and philosophical depth, yet distinctly modern in his focus on technology and globalization, particularly his interest in alternate realities.
