   "Nature is the best painting" I replied to a gentleman for a question regarding best painting in the world. He nodded and smiled.   No doubt artist and their fabulous arts have mesmerized mankind ever since the art revolution. But no one could match the captivating power of nature. We happen to live on the giant canvas of this masterpiece and all we need to do is, observe and enjoy.  They say the earth is round;backpack everything for that endless last move and you might reach that same place sooner or later. But for many of them, it is a bizarre passage with an unfathomable end. They are always ready to hit the road and pound the pavement, with that irresistible urge to unfold all the mysteries, and get hands on that secret hidden treasure. The quickening of the heart, the soft ticking somewhere in the pit of the stomach, the rush they feel on the beginning of a new expedition and the warm, beautiful anticipation of a completely new world. The s...

Sangraam !!

सेहरा में खोयी थी धरती प्यासी रोई थी कोहराम ये हरगाम हुआ माँ तेरा क्या अंजाम हुआ ? लपट चली थी सरपट सरपट प्यास भुझि न पनघट पनघट आँचल तेरा बेजान हुआ माँ तेरा क्या अंजाम हुआ ? व्यथित हुआ है जीवन सारा निज मंथन में पथिक भी हरा सावन क्यों अंजान हुआ माँ ऐसा क्या संग्राम हुआ ??

विडम्बना !!

अजब मंजर है , देख दुनिया बनाने वाले तेरे दर पे खड़ा हूँ , मैँ और मुझको सताने वाले ! किस से उम्मीद लगाए , अब नदिया पार लगने वाले खुद ही डूब रहे , जब कश्तियाँ बनाने वाले !! किस तरफ जाएं , वो मुसाफिर कहलाने वाले राह खो बैठे है , सब राह दिखने वाले !! अलफ़ाज़ न दे ज़ख्मों को , ऐ ग़ज़ल सुनाने वाले जख्म - कारी करते है, सब ज़माने वाले !!

2 AM !

The city sleeps and I am cutting a line of ambiance talking to the moon. The Moon is bright tonight and as beautiful as it is. I am reminded how alone I feel staring at the moon on a summer night meant for more than going home to an empty bed. This story is of every insomniac person who suffers from Nictofilia. I am one of them. I find peace in darkness. To be in the crowd yet far away from them is to be alone. It’s good to be alone at 2 AM. I know what I am doing is just a young man with soul much older than the rundown building that permeate the town. 2AM is for the photographers who aim at the sky and record millions of light year history in just one click. It is the time of the poet who collects all the pain in the day and sits alone in darkness and screams in his poems. 2AM is for the philosopher who becomes the vigilante out of his philosophy and dream to change the world. 2AM is not for ordinary people, they sleep in their illusions. 2AM is for those who hold thei...

Bidholi : Village or Planet ?

Image
The sound of the raindrops suddenly became louder when I came into my consciousness. Sitting at my balcony and listening to Coldplay while witnessing the layers of Blue hills, and the descending clouds leaving behind the white blanket in the sky was living a dream. I would sit on the railing waiting for the sun to come down and meet the Horizon with golden hue all over the sky. It was gods Painting and Bidholi happened to its Canvas.!! This is planet Bidholi. Nested on the foothills of Lower Shivalik range in Dehradun-Mussorrie Valley, this place never disappointed me. Situated at the altitude of about 950 meters above sea level, this place offers you an uninterrupted view of shivalik range towards south east. The layers of Blue hills beyond the horizon and absolutely gorgeous view of valley delight your eyes. Brooks making sound out of stones, sun and clouds making terrific artwork on the sky, tinystars twinkling on dark canvas of the sky. Monsoon clouds touching m...
