MIND AND SOUL

INDEPENDENT INDIA 15 TH AUGUST 1947, by the stroke of mid night, India got independence and two centuries of British Rule came to an end. This is what we studied in our history classes, but is this all? I learnt a lot about India in my primary and secondary level education but now I realize I should have questioned the authorities at that time, but then I realize, you can’t question an authority. The British Army, not even them, a small company of The Great Britain came to India and conquered it so easily as if this was a barren land, not supported by any protection to the unwanted malware. Why were we defeated and then ruled against our will? What exactly happened at that moment and what led to the slavery? I don’t know and now I don’t trust any authority to get a genuine answer, so basically I don’t want to know what were the incidences in that era. Even The USA was once a slave but know I don’t need to elaborate what it is. What is the difference between us and them? Forget a...

COMMENDABLE SANITY Sometimes I wish I could be and I should be a robot. No brain, no feelings, no emotions, just an order to follow and a work to do. Being human gives us a different window to look through but as the expectation accelerates and escalates, closing the window becomes difficult. Doing something is a different aspect and expecting the expected result is another. Somebody said that expecting the world to treat you nice, just because you are nice to the world has similar consequences as expecting a lion not to eat you, just because you are a vegan. How true and precise. Smarter people have problem, why are others so stupid; mediocre have problem, why these people think they are so genius; parents have problem, why their children don’t obey them; children have problem, why parents are unable to understand them. I don’t get even a single exception where a human being is fully satisfied by the presence of his counterpart. I am unable to understand why is there so m...

Chahat se jyada Chaha tha tujhe, chahat se jyada. Paana tha tujhe, kismat se jyada. Teri khanak thi kahin, aahat se jyada. Maanga tha us khuda se, ebaadat se jyada. Mohabbat thi tujhse, mohabbat se jyada. Ekraar tha tera, meethe se takraar se jyada. Ruka to tha mai, us intezaar se jyada. Nasha tha tera, subeh ke khumaar se jyada. Han pyaar tha tujhse, us pyaar se jyada. Tanha reh gya es jahan mai,tanhai se jyada. Dard chupa hai kahin, samander ki gehrai se jyada. Aadaton mai shumaar thi tum,subeh ki angrai se jyada. Mujhse judi thi tum, meri parchai se jyada. Shiddat thi teri , apni manzil se jyada. Tanhai bhi thi, meri mehfil se jyada.
