    I thought the swan was the chariot of Sarsavarti: Hindu Goddess of Knowledge, and consort of Brahma: Creator God. And to seek purification you have to place yourself in the Holy fire. Which is agni: God of Fire.

    This poem truly opened my eyes on what meditation can truly give to those who seek enlightenment.

    Good poem, and great philosophy...

    True, the swan is also the chariot of Knowlegde (that is why it can distinguish between good and evil).

    Agni represents purification in another context: destruction of an impure past.

    Good insight, Ismail.

    Wow,wow, HansRic, that was beautifully written and I mean BEAUTIFUL. it was especially this part that grabbed my attention:
    The birch, matured, cries its leaves upon him
    'Twixt peace and harmony, his chaos died

    and also the last two lines.
    with this poem you made your way to my favorites list.
    take care,
    marjan
