Are ten seconds enough to change the mind?
Ten seconds at the edge of chaos,
ten seconds where order unravels,
ten seconds where the human storm begins.
A reel flickers answers,
but the question still burns:
Can you embody wisdom in seconds?
Are ten seconds enough to change the body?
Ten seconds to forget the slow work of process,
ten seconds to drink wisdom from cartons,
ten seconds to silence the noise with a capsule.
But divinity whispers, steady and low:
Transformation is patient,
becoming takes time.
Are ten seconds enough to change the soul?
Ten seconds to pick your poison,
ten seconds on an earth of millions of years,
ten seconds in the breath of the ancient wind.
The timeless ones answer:
No clock can measure the soul,
No seconds can change what is eternal.

Rahul, there’s something timeless about this piece. I found myself wondering how often I try to rush things that need to unfold slowly.
Especially the last lines hit hard — “No clock can measure the soul, / No seconds can change what is eternal.” Just beautiful✨
