Omicron, the newest avatar of coronavirus, is knocking at the door, A purveyor of terror more and more! We are getting our just deserts As many of us are nature’s culprits, moral cripples and perverts! Doesn’t it serve us right As we took lightly mother nature’s might? Steeped in our hubris and ignorance, we areContinue reading “Life Lessons”

उच्च जीवन
हो एक व्यापक दृष्टिकोण, सोच न संकुचित हो, न हो गौण! सागर सा हो हृदय विशाल, न कोई द्वेष, न मलाल! जीवन के प्रति हो उमंग, मन में उठती हो तरंग! दामिनी की भाँति धमनियों में दौड़ता हो रक्त, आभा ऐसी जिसे लखने थम सा जाए वक़्त! जीवन मूल्यों के प्रति हो अपार निष्ठा, जिससेContinue reading “उच्च जीवन”

Where Does Beauty Reside?
Beauty resides in a heart, A heart that knows no wart, A heart that like a glow worm shines, And draws no narrow constricting lines, A heart that is all light, That like the moon illumines the dark night, A heart that goes out to others And is as large as that of all mothers,Continue reading “Where Does Beauty Reside?”

Be What You Are
You have nothing to prove, So to the music of your soul groove! You have nothing to hide, Why hedge your bets and your time needlessly bide? You have nothing but your chains to lose, Why then haul yourself over the coals and cook your own goose? You have nowhere to go to, Why thenContinue reading “Be What You Are”
जो जीता वही सिकंदर–एक भ्रम आसक्ति
जो जीता वही सिकंदर, जो हारे न उसके कुछ पल्ले, न उसके अंदर! जीतने वाले का जादू सिर चढ़ कर बोले, हारने वाले का तो जैसे सूरज ही अस्त हो जाए हौले हौले! जीतने वाले का सब लोहा मानें, हारने वाले को कौन है जाने? जीतने वाले का तो झूठ भी सच माना जाए, हारनेContinue reading “जो जीता वही सिकंदर–एक भ्रम आसक्ति”
Be Happy and Guard Your Happiness
When glum people see a happy soul Who is always on a roll, They are cut to the quick, And to mar her happiness they can be upto any trick! I wonder why people can not take another’s happiness, Why they are so put off by her peppiness, Why they do not take a leafContinue reading “Be Happy and Guard Your Happiness”
दीपावली के शुभ अवसर पर—
इस दिवाली कर जीवन अपना प्रकाशित, स्वयं की गरिमा बढ़ा, सत्य को कर स्थापित, आत्मा को बना प्रहरी, असत्य को कर निष्कासित, छल कपट का साथ दे न कर स्वयं को श्रापित, धर्म की उठा पताका, स्वयं को बना सबल, इच्छा सर्वोत्तम जीवन जीने की हो जाए तेरी प्रबल, कर धारण ज्ञान को, अज्ञानता कोContinue reading “दीपावली के शुभ अवसर पर—”

On this festival of lights, spread light all around, Why shouldn’t you with positivity yourself surround?
