War In The Name of Beauty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798642160800)

A War In The Name of Beauty reflects the trials and tribulations of a warrior and his mission in life i.e. searching for the meaning of life, his existential crisis, and most important and ultimate questions he holds in palms of both hands: 'Who am I?' and 'What is Love?'. Taking one of the longest journeys in the battlefield of life, from mind to heart. And in doing so encountering some precious gifts of time: the gift associated with the past (lamentation); the gift associated with the future (anxiety of unknown), and the gift associated with the present moment (confusion); and at times transcending these states to find ultimate love, bliss or deep current of joy which permeates the very fabric and matrix we call Universal Love. That which is the fragrance of life itself.Love has no reason, no structure or rules defined by logic. As such, A War In The Name of Beauty and its poetry uses poetic freedom, with intention not adhering to the principles of grammar as we know it. Meaning that within a poem, at times, the threads of lines weaving the poem together meander from the past, through present, and to future tense. And in moments when the warrior sits in deep contemplation, poem presents rhetorical questions. This has been done purposefully, illustrating how our monkey minds travels back and forth between these four dimensions or gifts of time as we journey on the battlefield between mind and heart.
