The Greatest Idol

 

“If the light of a thousand suns suddenly arose in the sky, that splendour might be compared to the radiance of the Supreme Spirit” - Bhagavad Gita 11,13.

“Thou shalt have no other Gods before me” -Exodus 20,3

 

Verily, it is a vast and evil idol

This atomic bomb:

Moloch in all his majestic might

Satan in all his gory glory.

Whoever can contemplate

Its mad mathematics

Learn its lunatic logic

And think to risk its Russian Roulette

Is already lost to love

And bound to burn

In one fire or another.
