मूर्ख बना गया ना,,,
यह लगातार तीसरा सप्ताह था जब अभ्युदय देर रात दो तीन बजे तक अपने कमरे में बंद, टेलीकॉन्फ़्रेन्स में व्यस्त रहा। यह कॉंट्रैक्ट अगर ना मिला तो आगे क्या होगा, इसका अंदाज़ा भी लगाने की अनुमति उसने स्वयं को नहीं दी थी। ‘अभी’ कि आदत है, फ़ोन पर टहलते हुए बात करने की, सम्भव है…
Kaal Chakra!
Did it really happen? Yes it did. The warmth of the blood sprinkling out of my intestine made an impression on my senses, forcing me to acknowledge that my acquaintance with a bullet was no longer restricted to cinematic experience. My body had just been subjected to it. Pain was still in queue to meet…
Liberal Food..
In some corner of the world this speech is happening where the intellectuals are trying to realize and confess the hypocrisy of human race specially the western world, which has always claimed to be the custodian of maintaining peace in the world.

I’d Rather Be….that ‘Wanderer’!
I ordered my third Chai (tea) in just about an hour while I was sitting on the stairs beside Pappu chiwala (chai seller) on Assi Ghat.

The constant buzzing of people’s chit chat, the sound of water waves, the rhythmic Sanskrit Shloka chants of the Vedic students from the…

That Extra Chromosome which makes her ‘Out of the World’!
“The earth, together with all of its countries and people”, is what Oxford dictionary has to say about the word “World”. The ‘Earth’ represents the external gaze to this spherical entity hanging in the Universe, while ‘World’ is a perception from within (an inside out look). ‘Perception’, because it provides the flexibility to extend it…
The ‘Face’ called Wisdom…in the crowd of Beliefs!
If I am able to see and recognize “Faces” around, it affirms that I have eyes. If I have eyes to see, brain to observe, mind to think, heart to feel, and ways to express, it only confirms that “I” exist. If I exist, I must be wearing a worldly identity. A worldly identity assures…
Bhojpuri, Saree and the Chappal!!
The possibility of missing my train suddenly became real as we rushed toward Manduadih station. This was my first journey to Delhi from Varanasi since the departure point had changed from Varanasi Cantt to Manduadih—a welcome change that had shortened the distance from our home and spared us from Banaras’s infamous traffic congestion. Ironically, this…
My Vivekananda Moment!
The ‘Uber’ application popped up the booked cab details. The name of the driver was interesting, ‘Nek’. While I was struggling to button my shirt in a rush, my mind afforded to spend little time to acknowledge the uniqueness of this name. The first impression which flashed in my mind was, it is ‘Nick’ and…
