Kashi, Varanasi or Benaras with its many names is an enigma to experience..They say you can visit this place only when there is a call and permission from the Lord Kala Bhairava.. the Lord of Time himself. This is my Ode to this place which has stood the test of time and continues to enthrall people from life till death.
Kashi.. A World Apart
A place where time seems to have stopped
The murky and the divine
Mingle here and intertwine
Normal and mystical blur their lines
An energy so pristine and fine
Engulfs every street every shrine
I close my eyes and sit for sometime
Stillness I feel in the core of mine
An expansive space creates within
Clears my thoughts and imagination stops
From the delectable chats to the holy ghats
Temple bells or market honking noise
I find an inner quiet amidst the chaos
Ganga flows relentless non stop
Merging life and death in her every drop
