Love is the essence of poetry and spiritualism

I am very happy to be among you. I want to thank Dr. Kanoria, Rahul Verma, and also Sunil Kanoria who is the Honorary Consul of Spain in India. I would like to remind you what I said in the last confluence in Delhi.

I had said that graphite and diamonds are both stones composed of 100% carbon and the only difference lies in their internal structure. The same is for human beings. Let me read out to you a poem:

Whoever you are I love you,

I saw you outside anonymous I call you

I saw you inside

And I call you mate.

All I know about you is that I love you.

Give to my eyes the time to come

And tears towards I claim to you 

But towards the centre of you that I worship

In an instant the soul made that path.

I know it is you and your name I ignored.

I know all your invisible is so evident

Like a stranger I have recognized

The eyes see the spirit forces

The body feels and they had for both.

And know their own love.

To conclude, let me say love is the essence of poetry and it is also the main source of spiritualism.
