Lifelong
People chase temporal  objects
Of money and other physical goods
For own hedonistic & sensual pleasure
With an endless quest and craving
Nurturing this false notion and belief
That they are real source of happiness…

How unreal and mistaken they are
B’coz true happiness never comes with
Material possessions and sensory pleasures
It’s a virtue – contentment, the Santosha
That carries true and lasting solace
and happiness in life.

बदला मौसम

शरद ऋतु तो अभी भी आती हैपर पतझढ़ में अब वह बात कहाँ  वह वैभव वह भव्यता नहीं दिखती जो बरसों पहले हुआ करती थीपेड़ों से झिलमिल झरती वह पत्तियाँ उनके लाल, पीले, नारंगी, सुरमई रंग. वसंत भी हर साल अब भी आता हैपर नवजीवन नव-उल्लास नहीं लातावैसी समृद्धि-सम्पन्नता अब नहीं दिखतीकोपलों और कलियों में […]
