Compassion

Must read

Indra Ter

When you melt like the Himalayas,
become a glacier and flow downhill,
You become pure light
Of which all matter is created
You become the Himalayas again
Keeping intact your height.
This is how the world operates at the metaphysical level.
Verily, greatness lies in melting and evaporating
And dissolving all boundaries of existence.
Glory lies in becoming the Himalayas
Of empathy and compassion.
That, a life of compassion is worth living.

[Indra Ter, an MPhil in English Education is a poet from Kanchanpur District of Nepal. He is also a researcher and translator par excellence.]
