Listen! Be on time, but never haste in life's long and inscrutable Journey,
Rest and look around with much mind and care through the weather sunny or rainy!
Always embark on well equipped with the essential requisites, resources and responsibility,
So that your Journey till your destination can be smooth, safe with much comfortability!
Listen! Keep ever the brake of self-restraint
fit, flawless and up to date,
So that you can overcome the steep humps of hurdles with much ease for a good Fate!
The less luggage of desires you carry with you, the more Divine-Bliss with less sweat,
The Lust-less tyres of continence have rarer chances of puncture, loss, delay and fret!
Live on Satwik diet to avoid obesity or food poisoning; hospitalization or medication,
Guard against the ambush by the robbers of temptation,
Who usually hinder the susceptible Pilgrims from crossing the path to Salvation,
For, swayed by overconfidence and rash driving, they fall into the gorges of self-destruction!
Hope, all the Travellers en route their heavenly Abode ought to follow this invaluable Advisory,
Or else, making their ultimate Journey of life sublime and successful is certain to be illusory!
N.B. This poem is inspired by the theme of today's column "Divya Chetana" of Sambad, a daily Odia Newspaper, published in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India.
