The Point at Infinity
by Vaibhav Madhok

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty—a beauty cold and austere, 
like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of 
painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show."
(“The Study of Mathematics”)
Bertrand Russell


The Physicist's thought
Beyond the clock
The point at infinity


A philosopher's delight
A poet's flight
The point at infinity


The spirit's burning
A seeker's yearning
The point at infinity


The mystic's highest realization
The soul's final destination
The point at infinity


Where all laws break
The machinary fails
The point at infinity


Believer's ulimate manifestation
Atheist's best contradiction
The point at infinity


Equally far from all of us
Equally far from infinity
The point at infinity


It's probably further from itself
As much as from ourselves
Its the only one
That is the lonely one
The point at Infinity


As my heart tries to fathom
Hails the ultimate freedom
That point at infinity
