खुद को मिटा रहे एतबार नहीं आता हैं |

|
उन्मादक तूफ़ान को देख रहा
बढ़ते अपनी ओर !
उम्मीद एक -
बक्श दे शायद मुझको
ले बस चपेट मैं अपने
खड़े जो संग मेरे !

||

भीड़ मैं खोया हू
पर अपनी शख्शियत को भुला न पाया हू |
खो चूका हू खुद को
पर एतबार नहीं कर पाया हू |
लगता हैं मुझको
मैं अलग हू |
'मैं अलग ' का अहम्
देते मुझको -
तूफ़ान से बचने को भरम |

|||
एक दिन भरम टूटेगा ,
तूफ़ान कि आगोस मैं खुद को घिरा पाउँगा !
एक आखरी सवाल जेहन में आएगा
ऐ खुदा , मुझे क्यों नहीं बक्शा -
देख लेते मेरे अच्छे कर्मो को सिला ?
हल्की हंसी संग बोलेगा खुदा -
इस तूफ़ान मैं मेरा हाथ न था
ये तो तेरे अच्छे कर्मो को ही सिला था |

तेरी बाहों मैं

तेरी बाहों मैं मरने को भी
हम जीना कहेंगे |

उम्र भर सम्हाले रखा हैं
इस दिल मैं प्यार तेरे लिए ,
मिले अगर आखरी सांसो संग
उस प्यार को नाम तो क्या -
लोग उसे अमर प्रेम कहेंगे !

तेरी बाहों मैं मरने को भी
हम जीना कहेंगे |

वक़्त का तकाजा

sabdo ko jor lafjah bane hamne
unki har barikyon ko parakh
tarif ke kaside bandhe hamne
par waqt ka takaja na raha
Baya ki izazaat mangne gaye
par unka thikana na mila

The Fourth Monkey of Gandhi Jee

Having humble science background, for me, thinking about the fourth law of Newton would have been more apt. But recently I finished reading ‘The story of my experiments with truth’ by Mahatma Gandhi and since then I have been mesmerized by this great leader, the father of Nation, to a great extent. To exaggerate the situation I can compare my situation with that of Sanjay dutta in movie Lage raho Munnabhai. And if I don’t exaggerate the situation then I would say I have been more occupied in sculpturing the fourth monkey of Gandhi Jee in my mind. Crimes and vices are increasing at exponential rates and so the concept of many more monkeys is totally justified.

The three monkeys as all of us know are ‘Don’t see Bad’, ‘don’t speak bad’ and ‘Don’t hear bad’. The fourth one which I would introduce is ‘Don’t wish bad’.

What inspired me to sculpture this monkey is the way people have molted themselves today. We feel happier with unsuccessfulness of others than the success of ourselves.
With stiff competition in every field we are now counting more on failures of others for our own success. This has created a space in our heart to wish bad for others. Often we secretly wish that the son of our neighbor shouldn’t get more marks than my son , my colleague shouldn’t have a car better then mine and so on. A subtle point which can be flanked here is about the way of our thinking. Instead of wishing for neighbour’s son to have less marks we can think of my son getting more marks. Objectivity of both the thinking may be same but the former imbibes negative energy in us and so in society where as the later thinking imbibes a sense of genuine competition. However to our lament, currently negative thinking, negative energy is slowly engulfing most of us. This is somewhat dangerous sign of prevalent and expanding crack in social and ethical fabric of our society. Even in relationship where love should be of utmost importance secret bad wish for other partner is garnering some space.

So next time if your heart try to wish bad for other just take a deep breath and say to yourself with smile – DON’T WISH BAD.

kahi to chhupa hoga
chand mera kitna lajawab hoga.
Kehta hain dil mera,
kuch to nayab hoga.

Responsibility with Morality

From sometime now I am deliberating upon an utopian code of conduct "Delivering your responsibility with morality". What if all citizens will start following this code of conduct.
I willn't bug you much.Let me just give an example how this code will prevent people from committing a crime.

Say there is a poor people, Garibdas, and he is struggling to feed his family. It is his responsibility to feed his family members. How should he deliver his responsibility then? In this situation Garibdas may be prompted to commit crimes like theft , robbery etc . Now here morality will come to save him. His conscience will not allow him to do such crimes. But now a question arise how will he deliver his responsibility then?
Now suppose there is a rich person, Amirdas, who knows this poor person and is aware of his plight. Here if Amirdas understands his responsibility of helping people then he should come as savior for Garibdas.
You can look at this it from much larger picture now. Even if there is no Amirdas who know Garibdas but still there is Government who should act as Amirdas. So Government should be very deligent in delivering responsibility with morality.

However defining morality in a diverese county like India in itself is a hard task. However if you filter out the moral values those revolve around women then we should have a comman moral values across India.
