Indian mind consider this world as maya or a sort of "illusion".Once you realize this and consider yourself as an illusions,existential dilemma sets in and one feels utterely trapped and helpless. This feeling pof being trapped is beautifully depicted here by Dharamveer Bharti ji. Mirrors here denote illusions.
"Could someone cut this knot of pain
Call out from across the mirrored lane
Unbearable is this absurd ending walk
Reaching the same post again and again
Will an exit never be at hand ?
Am I destined to only meet this end ?
Lost in these maze of mirrors
Crucified hanging from the frames"
