The comments of Sunder and Vijay are thought provoking.

Thank you both for understanding my frame of mind.

I have always been touched by the Snaskrit Stotras

and Tamil malais. Their sonorous tone does captivate

one into meditation. Most of them use this aspect.

The Suprbhatham is a good example, starting with a slow pace,

by the time one arrives at Kamala-cucuchacho, your mind

races with the music and you are left with concentration

of the music and forget mundane concerns. The vedas

ar the same. But as one tries to translate them,

I seem to miss the charm.

Our attributes to our Lord are mostly of physical

prowess Suppose the field of science had reached its

height then, would we associated him as super

mathematician or a biologist?

I think :detachment" is a great answer, but it probably

comes as one grows older and has reduced responsibilities

to family or society. Shankara puts it nicely in

BajaGovindam: Balah thavath Kreedsakthha,

etc.
