Another way to express the...Beautifully expressed!<br /><br />Another way to express the "so-near-yet-so-far" feeling is - Perhaps the beauty that the nature projects, is not supposed to be understood! If its understood, then its not beautiful - and if its beautiful, then it cannot be put in words, or expressed! That's how beautiful it is - and one cannot absorb it all. Had you absorbed it, you would not have been in a state to express!! <br />Reminds me of Kabir's doha:<br /><br />'Bhika' baat agham ki, <br />kahan sunan ki naa-e,<br />Jo jaane so kahe nahi, <br />jo kahe so jaane naa-e ||<br /><br />'Bhika' was saint, and here he says that some feelings/situations/realisations are so grand and magnanimous - that they could not be and should not be expressed. If someone tried to makes sense of it, or express it - suggests that he/she has not felt it in its entirety! <br /><br />.Amithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397350033148975453noreply@blogger.com
