Darkness to Light

Written by Posted on Less than 0 min read



The kartik amavasya,
The darkest night of year
Brings Deepawali –
The festival of lights…

An opportunity for dark forces
Black magic and occult rituals
To alcoholism and gambling
For those who live in darkness…

But the essence of the festival is
Tamso ma jyotir gamaya –
Lead us from darkness to light
The eternal and everlasting
Jnana – the knowledge and wisdom
For our internal hope and bliss.

उठो प्रिय

उठो मित्र अब मोबाइल उठा लो,फिर थोड़ा तुम आनन्दित हो लो। बीत गई रात, अब यह नई सुबह है,पर हमको इस सबसे क्या लेना-देना। झट फेसबुक और व्हाट्सऐप खोलो,व जीवन का यह चरम सुख ले लो। ढेरों तो अग्रसारित संदेश हैं लम्बित,रोचक मीम्स और चलचित्र जमा हैं। भूल जाओ कि चिड़ियाँ चहकीं, अथवाफिर कमल खिले, […]
