Peeping through the viewfinder that offers multiple focus points, I want to capture a picture of yours. I have many of them, but all the actualizations have some type of blemish.

In pain, I can never say ‘I love you’. Yet, this is a feeling that I have whenever things go easy, my Lord. For everything that you do or choose in my life, I try to be happy and thankful about it. The challenge is to do the same when I feel like a loser, […]
How thankful I am to this recurring pain that visits me every other second; I don’t have to spare a special time to contemplate on you. It’s like having an alarm clock that wakes me up. Every other moment, I get a chance to connect to you; though I often waste it by focusing more […]
My activity is my meditation. Every movement of my limbs is like a prayer that I offer to you. Sitting in my dance suite with my head tucked in my legs, I contemplate on you, my Lord. What’s it that can make me worthy of you! When I was a baby, I was excited to […]
On the spot where the earth ends and the aquatic kingdom marks its boundaries, a child is trying his luck. He is fascinated by the majesty of the sea, and wants to ride high on those whitecaps. The thrill of the surf is irresistible. Yet, he is cautious. Submitting to the unnamed fear that wells […]
The only thing I am sure of is this: I am eligible for every type of failure; capable of every type of sin; prone to every type of defeat; and amateurish enough to commit every type of fault. Bear with me! I have gone to school and have listened to the hallowed talk too. I […]
This line looks so perfect that I can repeat it almost daily. So, let me begin: yes, I was dumb, yesterday. I always had high hopes and felt that I had a star in me. Yet, I always get proven wrong at some point of time on a daily basis. Today I feel clever because […]
Watching that leopard in the cage, a sense of commiseration grips my heart. I am in a zoo. Why I visit a zoo, I don’t know! Perhaps, I love animals. Or is it the sight of a living being, struggling to be free, quenches the beastly desires that are latent in me? The leopard, as […]
I am a fighter. Yes, I am, and this conclusion is not a hurried one. I have found this dominating trait of my persona after spending thirty-one extremities of the humid subtropical climate. I fight with everybody, everything, all the time. In office, I fight with the expectations and responsibilities that are levied upon me […]
That unchecked greed of eating soiled fruits fallen on the ground, and believing that somebody once jumped from the moon on earth, unhurt. That playing with unvaccinated street puppies, and oblivious of any thing called Rabies. That crouching in front of the home-made earthen stove waiting for the bathing water to boil, and eating grapes […]
I had been a dragon-slayer in my previous births. God decided to give me another shot, and I took birth facing the challenges of the dragon called ‘life’. This dragon is huge and unpredictable.

The other two […]
Art is contagious in all its forms–more often than not, one form of art inspires the other, and continues to effuse springs of diffirent colors and textures. The result is a beautiful rainbow of expressions embodying the feelings and emotions of the artists. This is how I believe our world came into existence–different elements of […]

On those mountain peaks of Kailâsh sits my Master. He is Bholânâth–having naive demeanor–and is pleased with little efforts of his children. Being Natrâj–the king of dancers–He knows how a baby fumbles as it starts walking on its spiritual journey before it grows apt in those rhythmic movements. He’s patient and calm and awaits the […]
(Inspired by a song of Diane Arkenstone) Ridden and laden with deep stillness, the river of creation hides the agitation within its bosom. The influx and efflux of what is called material have the source that comprises a vibrant void. The processes of evolution and dissolution occur within the precincts of a boundless arena. To […]

The insouciant noesis towards worldly existence and dégagé prospect for somatic changes mark no easy occupation to be in. […]
A very strange kind of feeling is setting up in my body. I feel like a stranger inside me. When I sit motionless, something inside me feels like dancing vigorously. When I move around, I feel like I am sitting still and everything else is dynamic—as if I am watching a movie. I feel a […]
On the familiar trek/track beside the dried canal that spreads around three Kilometer, I ride my unclean mobike with a speed of 20 kmph. The time is of the twilight and the birds have returned to their nests. The woods on the right-side look still, pale-dark, and contemplating on an unheard song. On a tree […]
Standing on the 9th floor of a big corporate building, eagle-eyeing an area of around 20 Km through a somewhat dirty glass of a door, I feel watching a giant screen. The diesel generators powering the whole electric system, manned electric-lifts moving up-and-down, and the queued car-line at the ground answer the ‘what is around […]
