जलधि 'जड़धी' है
इसका भाव बुद्धि का अभाव नहीं
परन्तु,
जड़ यानी निर्जीव-
चेतना-शून्य घट-पट पदार्थों से
धी यानी बुद्धि का प्रयोजन
और
चित् की अर्चना-स्वागत नहीं करना है।
सागर में परोपकारिणी बुद्धि का अभाव,
जन्मजात है उसका वह स्वभाव।
वही बुद्धिमानी है
हो हितसम्पत्-सम्पादिका
और
स्व-पर-आपत्-संहारिका...!
सागर के संकेत पा कर
सादर सचेत हुई हैं
सागर से गागर भर-भर
अपार जल के निकेत हुई है
गजगामिनी भ्रम-भ्रामिनी
दुबली-पतली कटि वाली
गगन की गली में अबला-सी
तीन बदली निकल पड़ी हैं।
दधि-धवला साड़ी पहने
पहली वाली बदली वह
ऊपर से...
साधनारत साध्वी-सी लगती है।
रति-पति-प्रतिकूला-मतिवाली
पति-मति-अनुकूला गतिवाली
The ocean is imbibed with ‘Dullness of intellect?
It doesn't mean that it is devoid of intellect
But,
Dullness implies ‘materialistic”, that is, senseless’-
It means not to make proper usage of ‘dhi’ i.e. intellect, With the life-less objects like pot and cloth etc.,
And
Not to adore and receive supreme spirit.
The benevolent wisdom lacks with the ocean,
It is its inborn nature.
The wisdom is really that
Which is the executor of well-being and fulfilment
And
Destroys the disaster of ourselves and that of the others too...!
Like wandering women with an elephant-like gait
Like, frail females in the lane of sky
With a lean and thin waist,
Which have become respectfully alert
Which have pooled a huge store of water
By filling up their pitchers from the sea –
-The three cloudlets have set themselves out
On receiving the signals from the ocean.
Wrapped into a white curd-like sādi
That first one cloudlet In its appearance...
Looks like a devoted nun.
The one, whose heart is opposed to cupidity
The one, who acts according to her husband's mind –
