Bijay Kant Dubey: Your body is my prison, what does it mean here? The poetess means to say it in Parmatman lies it Atman, the love of Atman, as Atman cannot be imagined in the absence of Parmatman, the bonding in between the two is inseparable. Can the body be separated from the soul? So is the ehart in which dwells it the Lord. And the Lover of the Soul is God. Your darkness blinds me, it means that she knows it not the dark side of the Creation, the dark secrets of life and the world. Why to fear if he is with? But people feel it not what love is. You are Shyam, Ghanashyam, how beautiful is it to see your bluish face! But when it darkens, clouds seem to be darkening and lurking around and pensive reflection takes it over the heart, I fear it, fear it to go outside. People understand it not what it the binding of love. I is but Atman and You is but PArmatman, the relationship in between Atman ad PArmatman indelible.
