“Firm was my resolve
and fragile was my heart.
I saw many ends and many a start.”
Alok Mishra, Moving for Moksha

Paramahansa Yogananda
“You may control a mad elephant;
You may shut the mouth of the bear and the tiger;
Ride the lion and play with the cobra;
By alchemy you may learn your livelihood;
You may wander through the universe incognito;
Make vassals of the gods; be ever youthful;
You may walk in water and live in fire;
But control of the mind is better and more difficult.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

Ivor A. Richards
“Poetry is capable of saving us.”

“Sometimes by water
'and sometimes by the wind,
'my random lines on sand will be
'erased. What am I now? A ruddy rage?
'He said losing and winning matters not at all!
'He told! Unbecoming is a part of becoming again...”
Alok Mishra, Moving for Moksha

“from him we come
into him we go
in between, we see
what he decides to show.”
Alok Mishra, Moving for Moksha
