The best journey ever!

I never really thought I had the ability to articulate my emotions, my vision, my dreams, my aspirations and. most importantly the turmoil within me into words which could get converted into poems articles and stories. It's not that I couldn't do this earlier, it's just that I didn't explore this side of ME.
I thought writing was for my notebooks and examination answer sheets on which I would be judged and marked upon. I'd buy the most expensive pen in the shop just to convince myself to write. I like, my fellow human beings didn't like to be judged. I wanted to learn and become knowledgeable without looking at those books. I didn't like books and I still hate them with all my heart. 
 About 10-11 months back I was just sitting and willing away time with few acquaintances until a crisis arose. The crisis was to stop a friend from a  nervous break down. Nobody was forced to help, yet everybody tried their best to help.
  I think at times we feel nervous simply  because we don't know our abilities and haven't explored every bit of US. And I think something simliar had happened that day.
   She was a poet and was told to write a poem. Yet she couldn't write one, she said her hands were shivering and her mind was trembling. I couldn't understand what she meant by that, all I could interpret from her statement was that she was nervous. She was nervous because she was to be judged on that poem, she was shivering because someone would analyse and give her marks on something which came from her soul and she obviously  couldn't control her soul's call. Nonetheless, I tried to calm her down and told her to write anyway. On that statement of mine she said I'll lift my pen if you promise to give me company. I said ya sure I'll sit with you till the time to you write. She said NO, not that way. Give me company by doing the same thing that I'm doing. I said I don't write. She said there is always a first time. There was a very weird silence for 40 seconds. But after that I nodded my head in agreement.
She gave me a notepad and a green pen. For about 10 mins I was just staring the blank sheet without any thought in my head. After being blank for about 10 mins I lifted the pen and the first word that my hand wrote was LIFE. I didn't know why I wrote this word, I didn't even know the meaning of this word in it's true sense.
I then started thinking about life. what is life? why is life important? and gazillion similar questions came in my head without any answers. All I had was trucks and aeroplanes full of questions. I just jotted down those questions exactly the way they crossed my head. In the weirdest language, without even caring about the grammatical errors.
     And as luck would have it one of the professor's landed in the room. This professor took my sheet and read what I had doodled. All she said was "You are blessed with a soul which still has the ability to over rule your mind. Take good care of it." And I swear I didn't understand what she meant. She told me to submit what I had written. I was already in such a weird state of shock that I did what she told me to do without any ifs and buts. Yes! I had submitted that crazy doodling that I had done.
   I somehow felt calm after writing what I wrote. I could feel that the wicked turmoil like thing in me had subsided. I was feeling calm and peaceful. A drop of tear trinkled down my eye via my cheek it reached the area below my chin and I like an idiot didn't wipe it off. I just wanted things to flow at that time. Flow the way they were.  It was after few days of deep  interrogation and introspection that I had done within myself,  that I realised that I had not written something that day. I had just said HELLO to the real me. This real me was amazing it wasn't affected by materialistic forms of appreciation and criticism. It didn't care about marks and results. All it was concerned about was love, life and art. It was then that I finally realised that articulating things in my head helped my head and soul to stay calm and composed.
Thus began my journey of writing. A journey who's destination is the never ending journey itself.

ये हो क्या रहा है?

ज़मीन बाटने का वक़्त है,
नफरत को पनाह देने के लिए बहुत जगह है
मज़हब पर  लड़ने के हज़ारों बहाने हैं

लेकिन 
किन्तु 
परंतू 

तन्हाई बाटने का समय नहीं है 
प्यार को स्वीकार ने के लिए दिलों में जगह नहीं है
शान्ति का पैगाम लहराने की एक भी वजह नहीं मिलती 

आखिर क्या हो गया है दुनिया को?
क्या इस इंसानों की दौड़ ने
इंसानियत का ही कतल कर दिया?

Out of love!

At times you just need to shut your eyes to look into the world within you....the world which is made by you for you....the world which is yours and has its own aura........just close your eyes and let your heart do the rest..

Maggi Ban!

Maggi which has been in india since 1982 is suddenly banned in 2015, because some gentleman after good 33 years realised it is harmful. Well, that is a bit late but nonetheless it's still okay to interrogate about a product whenever you feel like. As a consumer you have the right to know complete details of the product and you obviously you have the right to pressurise the government to get the product tested in the lab in case you feel something is fishy.
Maggi apparently has high amount of LEAD which is not healthy. Btw, did maggi ever claim to be healthy? Did maggi ever force you to eat it? No, right! It was your choice to consume or not to consume. The government has no buisness to ban a product just because it is UNHEALTHY. It is an individual's choice whether to have a healthy lifestyle or an unhealthy lifestyle.
The irony is ciggeratte, pan masala and other CANCER causing products are sold freely while maggi is OFFICIALLY BANNED.

Such irony. Much astonishment!

वक़्त और हम!

ना हमने कभी
वक़्त की इफाज़त करी 
ना वक़्त ने कभी 
हमारी करी |
लेकिन आजतक 
हम और वक़्त 
दोनों ही 
बखूबी निभा रहें |
क्यूँ?
क्यूंकि, 
अब हम दोनों 
के तालुक 
उस मकाम 
पर पहुँच गए हैं 
जहाँ 
ना वक़्त को कोई 
उम्मीद है हमसे 
और 
हमे तो खैर 
कभी थी ही 
नहीं इस वक़्त से 
ना तब, ना अब

Medical industry needs medication!

Seeing the ashes of your passion and your loved ones is not a very nice feeling. It hurts, leaves a nasty scar and most importantly with those ashes a part of you is also burnt....a burn which cannot be healed. The scary part of this feeling is that you start imagining things which you know will never be true. Feeling your Grandpa's hand despite of knowing the fact that he is not there is one of the most scary yet a very calm and peaceful feeling. Science of course considers this as a symptom of hallucination, high stress levels and one million other lenghty diseases. It's their job to make money from our pain you see. And this is a very strong symptom of a disease called CAPITALISIM which the medical industry is suffering from and they unfortunately consider us sick. I felt a hand on my head and I know i felt it how can someone deny that? I know it was grandfather's hand, I JUST KNOW that. I am not bound or obliged to give everyone logics about what I feel. 
I never knew a piece of wood with  thin slice of lead had the ability to sketch my favourite person's potrait. This is something i didn't know came to know about it after spending good 18 years of my life. I have been using that commodity since the age of 3. All i knew about that product then was that it is something used  to complete homeworks. I hated its presence. The world calls it a pencil. I used to consider it my enemy back then,  but now i consider it as my companion for life. Perceptions change. But emotions and feelings dont. They remain  the same. 
They say my DADU is no more, i know he is there with me. I know he is smiling at me,  even if you call this being MAD. He is still there its just that you cant see him, BUT I CAN STRONGLY FEEL HIM AROUND ME and i know my feelings are honest and true unlike this dishonest and double faced world.  I look at the moon when i crave to see him. He was unique, very generous and an abnormally selfless soul like the moon which shines when everything is dark and haunted. Now if one could please tell me how is this comparison illogical? Its my view about it you are free to disagree but you are not allowed to disregard it. 
As my favourite person puts it " You are not supposed to do anything. You were not here in life with a time table. Do what you FEEL like" I think i will stick to this quote. And i think i will start listening to the slimy reddish grey fist size thing in my body which beats in a very rythmic pattern.

कुछ अलफ़ाज़, बस यूँ ही!

आँखों में बहता सागर 
और 
रगों में बहता खून 
होता तो ज़रूर है 
लेकिन....
इस कमबख्त दिल को
सच मानना गवारा कहाँ |
_______________________
जब रगों में खून की जगह 
कला के करीब जानेका जूनून बहे,
तो ये मान लेना चाहिए
की तुम कला के लिए नहीं
कला की वजह से जी रहे हो ||
___________________
अरज और आवाज़
में उतना ही फरक होता है
जितना की
चोट और ज़ख़्म में होता है..

उन पर धूल जम जाती है...
_______________________
रात के अंधेरे में
चंद्रमा की रौशनी

दिन की चुभती गर्मी में 
पेड़ की छाँव, 
उम्मीद और शीतलता
का प्रतीक होती हैं ।।
_____________________________
सुरूर तो हमेशा से ही हल्का ही रहा है,
हाँ! जूनून की बात करो
तो बताएं जोश किसे कहते हैं!
_________________
हमेशा तो
तुम अपने खुद के भी नहीं हो,
कोई इंसान या चीज़

वक़्त की इबादत

कैद से रिहा होंगे...
_________________________
जब सारे दरवाज़े बंद हो जाएँ तो,

और
तोड़ने में ही समझदारी है...

Hypocricy at its best!

This world will go to any extent for protesting and supporting the political system, academic structure, health issues, rights of BABAs and another 100 million similar things. Which is technically good and i whole heartedly appreciate it. But, at times what i fail to understand is where do these activists, social workers etc go when it comes to standing for FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. Why is that there is no protest when a paiting is ban? Why is it that no protest or rally or something similar takes place when an artist is arrested just because he/she had expressed their views through an artistic medium? Why is it so easy to harass an artist worldwide? Is pursuing art in any form a crime?

It is a well known fact that all these bureaucrats will never allow expression to prevail because they themselves are scared of it. Simple reason being: The world will come to know about their deeds. But one expects NGOS, Art & Culture organiations to behave in an unbiased manner. Alas! These organizations have also turned hopeless. No organization has the courage to stand for and by EXPRESSION. Whether it's a painter, dancer, musician, writer etc each one of them will be harassed and supressed simply because they have a different point of view and have the guts to express it through artistic mediums unlike goons and hooligans who resort to violence and blood shed in order to express or convey their point of view.

Beauty of expression lies in complexity of art. Dance, music, painting etc also express anger happiness and many other emotions and ideologies, its just that some understand and some dont, which is again  okay. Everybody has their own perception about things, you see.

But does that mean you ban their precious works of art?
Does that mean you force an artist to quit their field of art?
Does that mean you dont allow expression to prevail?
OR
DOES IT SIMPLY MEAN THAT EVERY OTHER PERSON IS A HYPOCRAT WHO WANTS ART TO EXIST BUT DOESNOT HAVE THE COURAGE TO FACE  THE POWER OF EXPRESSION.

If this is the level of hypocricy that exists, I think art in all forms will soon be an EXTINCT CONCEPT!

कुछ चीज़ें दिखाने के लिए नहीं होती!

हिम्मत, ताकत और शौर्य देखने- दिखाने के लिए नहीं होता । सही समय पर अगर इनका प्रयोग ना करो तो इन गुणों और तुम्हारे शव मे कोई फर्क नहीं बचेगा । जैसे शव को ज्यादा रखने से बदबू आती है वैसे ही आपके इस  झूटे दिखावे से आएगी ।अंजाम भी वही होगा जो एक लाश का होता है, राख हो जाएगा सब कुछ। जिंदा रहते हुए राख होने का कोई फायदा नहीं है। इसलिए सदा विनम्र रहने में ही भलाई है |

Everything is a phase!

Life and death
Light and dark
Joys and sorrows
Smiles and tears
Highs and lows
Flow and stagnation
Positive and negative
Are temporary phases
Which shall pass
Delightfully
And
Melodiously
With time and wine
Cartoons and games
Name and fame

It'll be gone
Whether it's
Good
Bad
Or
Ugly
Because nothing
Is permanent
And
Constant
It's all mortal
Yet we try
To
Think
Believe
And
Accept
That it's 
Immortal

चाहत!

ना वक़्त की इफ्फाज़त की है
ना की अपनों की क़द्र
ना सुनी धड़कने दिल की
ना रक्त  के बहने का हुआ कभी एहसास

बस एक मुस्कान की आस है
प्यार की प्यास है
जिंदा रहने की चाह है
और जीने के रज़ा है

ऐ खुदा बस यही
मेरी दुआ
मेरी मन्नत
मेरा मकसद है

Sunday, 31 May 2015

दुआ!

बरकतों का पैगाम मिले
अपनों का अपनापन मिले
आप वक़्त की नहीं
वक़्त आपकी इबादत करे
भूखे को रोटी मिले
प्यासे को पानी मिले
अज्ञानी  को ज्ञान मिले
किसान का अनाज कभी न सड़े
 अश्कों की बूंदे आपकी आँखों से वंचित रहें
मुस्कान आपकी शौहरत
और मुहब्बत आपकी दौलत बने
क्या इन सबके बाद भी
आप रूपए की दुआ कीजियेगा?
