Relative? Only a man with so much meditative assimilation and transcendental vision can come to grapple and align with it which is in him who is but a wanderer, a vagabond, a dreamer dreaming about the fate of humanity and human race wanting to get his visions translated into reality. Puranic aligning with Vishwamanava, the Universal Man, Vasudheva Kutumbakam, World Humanity, The Whole World Is Our How the India of his dreams, how his visions Upanishadic, Vedic and Invoking Brahma, Vishnu, Maheshwara as for an auspicious start, a benediction needed for, he seems to be seeking blessings directly from Vishwakarma, the God of Architects and Artisans. Just like a bird he keeps singing, singing the songs of America and democratic confederation. Such a thing it is in Ulysses, The Rime of The Ancient Mariner. The poet sings of his times and the age in which he was born, he sings of human progress and development, science and technology, the wonders of science, the victory over ruthless Nature and the furies of it, engineering, skill, communication, and connection. The fanatics did it so much so bloodletting. The conservatives wreaked unnecessary havoc. What wrongs have we done in the name of religion? How did we bleed humanity? We went for witch-hunting and honour killing, we entertained inhuman slavery.

In the backdrop of the Civil War and reconciliation, the nascence American federation, he thinks of America, the future of it as well as the future of democracy, what it lies for human race, how to take the giant leap with science and technology. The history of man knows not, the history of earth, the history of time. Many a thing we know it not, many a thing have we forgotten. Think of the services of the other people. God is in the service of man the service one man does for another. A visionary he sees the visions of the past and the present and tries to draw from what human race has learnt, how the suffering of it which man has forgotten to take a note of that over the passage of time deriving it from, service to man is service to God.

Passage to India which was published in 1871 together with other poems is a poem of the same visionary spirit, content and dreamy glide, written with some loafing and vagabond spirit, passing it from man to man, place to place so full of generalizations and ruminations over time, man and spirit, human thought and idea as these are the poems of a greater dimension, a wider spectrum telling of the kindred relation between the Soul and the Over Soul, the Mind and Over Mind, the Self and the Greater Self.
