What's in a Name?

When you wake up from sleep
you call  yourself with name?
can you ever be away from yourself?
then why do you need a name?
Name is reference to a form –
to differentiate one from another,
it also distances away from each other…
It is for the world and ego, my dear
that lives on in differences and distances…

Animals don’t have names
nor the birds and trees…
Violent religious wars are
for the holy names and forms…
Oh, the dull-witted ones
never looked at themselves
well enough to know
when they were born,
they had forms without names!

The Real One within you is same, 
dwelling within as infinite bliss
call Him by any name…
When you call Him ‘Rama’
He lived up to His name…
for He has proved it true
for us to know, for us to grow!
Awake and Arise…live up to your name
for, then it is worth to have a name

What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. - William Shakespeare
===========================Humor
A concerned husband went to a doctor to talk about his wife. "Doctor, I think my wife is deaf because she never hears me the first time and always asks me to repeat things."
"Well," the doctor replied, "go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her and say something to her. If she doesn't reply move about 5 feet closer and say it again. Keep doing this so that we'll get an idea about the severity of her deafness."
Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed. He starts off about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen as she is chopping some vegetables and says, "Honey, what's for dinner?" He hears no response. He moves about 5 feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feet closer. Still no reply. He gets fed up and moves right behind her, about an inch away, and asks again, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!"
