Karma Poems
The Path of Destiny
by Yahaya Qasim
I am the maker of my destiny
Through the plot of my journey
To be who I am meant to be
And it's only I who posses the key
Luck might truly walk my way
Situations might lead me astray
All lie in the decisions of my palms
And the hard work of my arms

The 24 Roadblocks to Enlightenment
by AiR - Atman in Ravi
The Purpose of our Life is Enlightenment
But we are all trapped in Achievement
We run a race trying to be an ace
Lost in this maze, we don't live with grace
And all we end up is with entertainment
What is Enlightenment, this Truth, do we know?
It is overcoming Ignorance within, a spark is lit, aglow
It is overcoming the lie that God lives in the sky
Going on a Quest, Realizing, 'Who am 'I''

Don’t cut a cake! Awake! Your Birthday is Fake!
by AiR - Atman in Ravi
Do you cut your birthday cake?
Do you know your birthday is fake?
Don't continue to make the mistake
It's time for you to now awake!
Ask your mother when you were born
You were kicking weeks before and this went on and on
You were alive long back, she knows
And even science has pictures as the embryo grows

From Yoga to Moksha
by AiR - Atman in Ravi
Are you in search of Happiness?
Do you want that state of Eternal Bliss? Then, begin the Journey from Yoga to Moksha
And you are sure to achieve this!
Who am I and why am I here?
Have you pondered this, are you clear?
We just live and cry and die
We don't discover the Truth, we don't live with cheer!
We listen to many, the right path we don't choose

I Guess That's What the Greeks Meant by Fate
by Richard Randolph
When Titania, the queen of the fairies,
falls in love with an ass in A Midsummer Night's Dream,
she's really reached Bottom,
and we cannot help but pity her.
But it's amusing, too, to see someone
so noble so blinded by love,
and we recognize the truth in it.
After all, that might well be any one of us,
because love is not really a choice.
It's not based on respect, intelligence, shared sensibilities,

A Cautionary Verse
by Graham Ereks
Rain on my parade
And you'll get Karma's raid,
Attempt thwarting my praise,
And be put below raise!
Be that jealous foe while I traverse,
And presently you'll meet that reverse!
Don't linger dude
by Lampetti -
Brunetto Latini was punished as well
he did the best that he can do
So please don’t listen the lasts
but peak straight to the ninth’ canto.

The A to Z of Karma - 2nd Edition
by AiR - Atman in Ravi
What is Karma? Karma means Action
It is the Law of Action and Reaction
If we sin, if we do bad, we will weep What we sow is what we will reap
Nobody can escape the Law of Karma
It is Karma that is controlling the earthly Drama
Because of past Karma, we experience trauma
Our Ultimate Goal is to attain Moksha!
Because we live in ignorance, we cry
