Heartscapes Jayant

Heartscapes is a collection of poems. Every landscape is different; even the same landscape looks different at different times. Likewise, through the churning of emotions, the heart turns into magnificent images. The book captures 108 such images. 108, because it has special significance in Yogic tradition. It looks at love and romance from the spiritual aspect, maintaining the long tradition of Indian thought as depicted, including in its splendid sculptures.

The poet feels that these emotions are an integral part of this universe's matter. One gets a trigger, a spark, and they are set to flame.

Those in love tomorrow may think,

Their feelings are not new but old;

As I know, yours are with me from ages,

Which made me wild and bold!

The book has a message that when a heart touches another heart, it creates infinite possibilities; as it is a huge step in the integration of finite with infinite. Everything about it is beautiful, the fall and rise; sorrow and joy; parting and union. It thus becomes the essence of life:

Remnant of our love,

Is my being's essence;

Is summing up of my life,

On earth my presence!

Travel through these heartscapes. You will have a feeling of déjà vu.
