My perspectives on Unseen Knowledge

My Perspective of the Unseen KnowledgeLeki Tenzin, Bhutan.                                                     Leki Tenzin, Bhutan

I believe that in a world teeming with diverse perspectives and experiences today, we often find ourselves entangled in the web of blame and misunderstanding.  We rush to judgment, failing to recognize the unique truths and beauty that reside within each individual. This inherent tendency to divide and conquer has stifled our collective growth, preventing us from embracing the vast tapestry of knowledge that lies dormant within our communities. It is with this realization that I call upon ourselves to step away from the confines of ego and debate, and instead embark on a journey of exploration and appreciation.

I see that unseen knowledge is not merely about acquiring new facts and figures but that it is about delving into the depths of human understanding, embracing the diversity of thought and experience that enriches our collective consciousness. It is about recognizing that each individual, regardless of their background or beliefs, possesses a unique perspective that contributes to the grand narrative of humanity.  I have, in regards to my above believes written and shared to others my book- ‘The Path We Never Took’. I share here the abstracts of Preface of my  book- ‘The Path We Never Took’   it’s content poetic lines and cover pages as follows:  

Abstract of Preface of my book- ‘The Path We Never Took’

‘’It is on account of my beliefs that, we have, as humans, failed or often refused to see the better alternative paths available or  tried exploring new frontiers that I have named my reflections as "The Path We Never Took". The title signifies that my reflections encompass regrets, lamentations and a quest for better, unexplored paths. I firmly believe that we could have a better way of living in this world if we don't ignore certain paths that we could take or not tread the wrong ones.

While the wound is the place where light enters us, as said by Rumi, I draw the attention of humanity and my readers to see hope through the paths that we could take otherwise or not miss the better alternatives. My call for the same is embedded deep in my poetic lines, notably in the verses of ‘My Ode to the Moon’ and ‘Twenty First Century Alas!’. ‘’

Abstract of Poetic Lines from my Poem- ‘My Ode to The Moon’

‘I wish not talk of sorrows nor of pains tonight,

 But rather that of joy, love, art, or music,

Or that of praise of you or laughter.

 Let my imagination float and be drunk,

On the wings of poesy as it should

And be in a world never as here,

But rather away and joyful

Away and Joyful! where no sorrows tread me’

‘On what account of life should it be said then,

  That we have achieved much, or so little?

Account of leading to wars and confrontations,

Or that to peace and calmness?

Account of craving for more or being contented?

Account of sticking to virtues or to bad deeds?

That of being messengers of love and peace,

Or that of wars and conflicts?

Would my friend’s dream of world come true,

That of ‘One World One Government’ one day?

Would your message be than that;

We must never make it to say,

That we should have never done it!

And that let peace here on earth prevail,

Through the union of our minds and hearts

‘ So beautiful are you moon tonight,

As ever, in your crescent shape as in full,

Surrounded by the stars of heaven above,

In millions, billions, and trillions,

The ones that grow more vivid the more I watch.

Your journey each night from east to west,

Is indeed a miracle, a celestial one indeed!.

I am for now in the best of my being,

In these dim silver rays of yours,

Beneath this tree, in peace,

To send this Ode to you,

And a prayer for the world’

Abstracts from my Poem- ‘Twenty-First Century Alas;- !!

‘Here is my son- Twenty-first century- Alas!

Let all man sink and let me float!

Let me, if not my nation, survive!

Or Let my nation survive

And be it anything of others!’

‘Here is all nation first! -America first!

China First! India first and Peru first!

All lives matter!-Black lives! Blue lives! Yellow lives! Green Lives! and Brown Lives!

Yet, which nation to be last though,

Or what lives doesn’t matter ?’

‘What insanity or beastness of man is that,

To rape a child or a woman above everything?

Why should marriages equate to separations here?

What about the sorrows of those in slums?

Those caged, not free, watched and wretched,

Can’t breathe or see the sun?

Is my brother hit by bullet now dead,

Or is my neighbor’s daughter still in trauma?

Would you, my son, otherwise carry this message?

My plea and appeal to the world that:

We must never make it to say that,

We should have never done it!!’
