Renouncing Renunciation

With knowledge wise decision you make,

No longer identity from body you’ll take.

 

From material attachment you’ll stay renounced,

Absorbing knowledge of Brahman, attain stature pronounced.

 

From this King Janaka attained worldwide fame,

Through detachment lived up to his Videha name.

 

But as soon as King Dasharatha’s son eyes to gaze upon,

His hard acquired level of renunciation was gone.

 

Be not puzzled, for this is how it’s supposed to be,

Feel unbreakable love when Supreme Lord’s vision you see.
