Wondering On a Wonder-Taj Mahal

"For heaven's sake, my heart, keep secret your love,

     and hide the secret from those you see

 and you will have better fortune."

 (By-Khalil Gibran)

 

I am in heaven and to my surprise, I am alive too. 

Entering through the red main gate, a cordial relationship is developed with the Taj Mahal, the most beautiful and the greatest mausoleum on the face of the earth. 

It is a white marble structure on a silent bank of river Yamuna. The charisma is matchless and it is said that the zenith of its candor will be invincible for ages to come. 

I wonder, a sense of acceptance for a human being, is sometimes as counterproductive as is anger or jealousy. The quest to create a marvel matching the glory of the Taj has been dropped, rather it has been surrendered to the mystery behind its grandness.

The secret of its mystic beauty, is the fountainhead of various perplexities and manifestations of many unanswered questions-what made it so sacred and meticulous? was it the skills of the artisans??... or ego of an emperor or maybe a pure hearty intention of a noble being... reflecting love, sacrifice & divinity?

 

 Monochromatic 

I see it as a symbol of all elements-belief, power, religion, and above all an urge for expressing love. Its splendor will never be deciphered, for it holds the secret, for a better fortune.
