कवयित्री : स्वप्ना अमृतकर (पुणे)

आत्मकथ्य : लिखाणाच्या शैलीत, शब्दसुमनांच्या वेलीत, विचारांच्या स्वरचित, मनाच्या काल्पनिक, माझा प्रवास सुरु आहे.   साहित्यिक लिखाणांत कविता, चारोळी, गजल, लेख, कथा लिखाण, प्राचीन आणि नव नव्या गोष्टी, तंत्रज्ञान समजुन त्यावर स्वरचित विचारमांडणी करणे.

विशेष : पालकांकडुन लाभलेल्या स्वच्छ विचारसरणी आणि लिखाणाची कला शैली जोपासता यावी हाच प्रयत्न .. – स्वप्ना अमृतकर

 

मेघ सरले

 

मेघ सरले,

मोर हासले,

थेंब थांबले,

वादळ हरवले,

 

नकळत तेव्हांच तू माझ्याकडे पहिले,

आणि मी माझे सर्वस्व गमावले,

तुझ्या बघण्याचा इशारा होता जणू,

पाऊस पडल्यानंतर होणारा आनंद,

ओल्या मातीचाही चोहीकडे दरवळलेला सुगंध,

वाऱ्यानेही कहर केला होता मनी,

कोमल अंगालाही शहारल्या लहरी बेधुंद,

मनाला पालवी फुटावी एवढा गजर झाला त्या क्षणी,

हरवलेल्या राधेला मिळावा तिचा कृष्ण,

असाच काही आहे तू माझ्यासाठी परमानंद,

आपल्या दोघांमध्ये होत होता संवाद केवळ त्या मेघांमुळे,

आता शेवट जरी केला तरी तो केवळ तुझ्या माझ्या प्रेमामुळे,

 

म्हणूनच,

मेघ सरले,

मोर हासले,

थेंब थांबले,

वादळ हरवले….!

हिन्दी साहित्य-कविता – पिता की याद – श्री जय प्रकाश पाण्डेय

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

श्री जय प्रकाश पाण्डेय

 

 

 

 

 

पिता की याद

 

पिता बैठते हैं कभी

कभी इधर कभी उधर,

कभी अमरूद के नीचे

कभी परछी के किनारे

कभी खोलते हैं कुण्डी

कभी बंद करते हैं किवाड़

गाय को डालते हैं चारा

बछिया को पिलाते दूध

लौकी की बेल पकड़ लेते

फिर खीरा तोड़ ले आते

अम्मा पर चिल्लाने लगते

आंगन के कचरे से चिढ़ते

चिड़ियों को दाना डाल देते

कभी चिड़चिड़े रोने लगते

बरसते पानी में भीगने लगते

पिता हर जगह मौजूद रहते

सूरज की रोशनी के साथ

पिता जब भी याद आते

तन मन में भूकंप भी लाते

हिन्दी साहित्य – कविता – दुआ/प्रश्न  – डॉ भावना शुक्ल

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

डॉ भावना शुक्ल

(1)

दुआ
वे करते हैं दुआ
दीन दुनिया के लिए
और
मर जाते हैं बिना दवा के
वे
काटते हैं चक्कर
ओझा,पंडित और गुनिया के
ताने सहते हैं
दुनिया के।
जाहिल का खिताब पाते हैं
सहारा खोजते हैं
जादू-टोना या मंत्र का
दरअसल
वे शिकार है षड्यंत्र का
उन्हें न रोटी मिलती है
न दवा फिर भी वे देते हैं दुआ ।
संतोषी मन सोचता है
जो हुआ सो हुआ ।
जो हुआ सो हुआ ।
(2)
प्रश्न 
भजन से भूख
और
प्रार्थना से
युद्ध का अंत नहीं होता
ज्वालामुखिओं की चर्चा से
चूल्हे नहीं सुलग सकते
और
जुगनुओं के प्रकाश से
नहीं मर सकते अंधेरे ।
घेरे है
प्रश्न ।
हो सकता है
भेड़िए आदमी न बने
किंतु
कैसे रुक सकेगा
आदमियों का
वीडियो में तब्दील होना
तब
बच्चे
बचे आदमी सोचेंगे
कि वे
 क्या करें
कहां रहे
और कैसे मरे ?

English Literature – Journey of Life – Mr Ashish Kumar

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

Mr Ashish Kumar

(Today, e-abhivyakti presents the mysterious journey of literary life of Mr Ashish Kumar.  He has well researched Hindu Philosophy, Science and quest of success beyond the material realms.  We will share about his books, synopsis/excerpts separately in book review section time to time.)

Ashish Kumar currently residing in Delhi, is basically from Haridwar, Uttarakhand. He earned his B.Tech. (IT) from SRMSCET, Bareilly, UP in the year 2004. Ashish has also completed C-DAC from Delhi, back in February 2006. His large span of interests finds its home in the Hindu Philosophies and science, and a quest of success beyond the material realms. He has already five books published to his credit (all are of totally different realm) which are ‘Love Incomplete’ (in English) – A failed love story, ‘Kya Hai Hindustan Mai’ (in Hindi) – comprises of two parts. Part one – ‘Kya Hai Hindustan Mein’ talks about author’s experiences that he has observed while on the road, during travel and in day to day activities of the life in India. Part two – ‘Pehle aur Ab’ talks about the differences that are significant in the life of 1980’s and now.  Third is ‘Detail Geography of Space’ (in English). In ‘Detail Geography of space’ Ashish has tried to present an unify theory of anything, from which we can solve all the unsolved problems of universe including Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Quantum Theory etc. means he has tried to show how the universe works from macro to micro level and how from one theory we can prove other aspects of universe, because all the elements of universe works on very same pattern.  He has sent copy of his third book ‘Detail Geography of space’ to greatest scientist of our generation ‘Stephen Hawking’ for review. His first research article was published in the International Journal of Engineering and Scientific Research (IJESR), December 2015 edition, with title ‘Theory of Anything – Sankhya Philosophy’.

His fourth book was ‘The Ruiner’ (in English)

Describing about his journey authoring the book, ‘The Ruiner’, Ashish elaborated that he has had interest in science since his childhood. He had started reading Hindu scriptures 11 years back. He was looking forward to explain all unsolved problems of science and lost philosophy and essence of Hindu scriptures and Mythology which are breath of every Hindus.

Ashis further describes that according to me about my book ‘The Ruiner’, “I added my twelve years research, experience, exploration, quest, desires, and emotions of the most difficult topics of the universe. But most of all, this book is written by the secret guidance of that Infinite power, which has given me suggestions, points to add in this book, and clarity of concepts. Some are a wonder for scientists; others can be helpful for scientists. I have received signals and instructions from God in the state of meditation, dream, and dreamless sleep. Only I know how much pain I have taken to dedicate my whole life into this book. There is no number of counts available which can tell me how many nights I have spent without sleep—even sleep was trying to give me warning that either enjoy me or be ready to break apart. I faced continuous headaches, which I had been facing from last twelve years, is finally able to justify my efforts in the form of this book. For the last ten years, I was going through many of the ‘-ally’ situations—I was broken—mentally, physically, financially, economically, socially, emotionally, logically, etc. This book will take you on a journey of mysteries. You will find explanation of some facts which you have been hearing about from your childhood, and suddenly they will change.

I have read all the possible available scriptures on Hinduisms including 4 Vedas, 18 Puranas, more than 108 Upnisadas, all available versions of the Bhagvad-Gita, The Ramayana, The Mahabharata, Upanishads, Vedas, Vastu-Shastra, Astrology, Palmistry, Music, Ayurveda, Mythology, pPilosophy, Agamas and many more. I have read more than 3000 books in last twelve years, of religion, philosophy, science, etc. in physical format and e-books. I have researched immensely on the Internet to satisfy my quest for knowledge upon which this book is based.

About his book ‘The Ruiner’ he describes two boys and two girls of the current era are in the quest of mythological history of Hindu scriptures. Their aim and hobbies are different. Even their professions are different. They have come together to explore the fascinating story of the world. Yes, they have come together to walk on the footprints of Lord Rama and Lakshman in Sri Lanka. There they meet their guide, a person who explains and also makes them visit places of Ramayana like they all are part of that era. They also got the answers to some facts which no one knew before, such as: Ravana knew Clone Science and created 1 lakh clones of his sons and 1.25 lakhs clones of his grandsons. Where are they now? Ravana knew the science to use moon energy to prepare food. How? How were Gods able to transport themselves from one location to another? How Ravana created the link between this realm to heaven? What is the science behind Indrajaal, Mohini Astra, Lakshmana Rekha etc? Why did Goddess Sita demand golden deer? Why didn’t Lord Hanuman kill Bali? What is Sita’s Gita? How did Lanka get its name, Sri Lanka? What is the significance of Dakshinamukhi and Panchmukhi Hanuman? Why is moon revolving around the earth with overlapped of one paksha of 15 days? How could Kaalnemi fly faster than Lord Hanuman ? What is the science behind Weapons Shakti, Brahmastra? What is the Science behind Sanjeevani medicine? How can Pushpak Viman fly at a different speed? Is reason behind Mahabharata war was Lord Krishna? Can we stop aging by manipulating our DNA? How do Karmas work? Do curses and boons affect our karma? Prana, consciousness, and soul are the same or different? What is the science behind Amavasya? Who is the goddess of moon phase? What is the Science behind sacrifices? Is any other formula more powerful than E=mc2. If yes, what is that? Is inter-caste marriage responsible for crime and corruption in our society? How do emotions impact our mind and body? What was written in Lord Hanuman’s Ramayana? How our karmas mapped over our DNA coding? What is the science behind the dreams, different bodies etc? Where in our body different planets of cosmos are located? Do we know the teaching of more than 40 Gitas? Can we reduce the size of computer storage by 1/8 by using Sanskrit grammar? …and much more…  But the most earth-shaking truth is when they know that actually there is an unsolved mystery of Ramayana era is still present. The four are face to face with an unsolved mystery which the world has never thought of.

In his fifth title ‘Sachchai Kuch Panno Me’ (in hindi) he has shared his experiences about common life of an Indian. These are author’s own memories, which make him to feel different flavors of emotions. These all are true incidence of 9 different emotions of human life means love, laughter, compassion, anger, courage, terror, disgust, surprise and peace. All stories are of three or four pages only so book contains 27 sort stories 3 of each emotion.

Apart from reading, writing, meditation, travelling and spiritual interest, Ashish loves to cook food.  Ashish knows more than 400 types of drink recipes.

On asking that who he believes was the most supportive and important for the successful publishing and releasing of these book, Ashish said that his father and his mother have inspired and supported throughout this complete journey.

English Literature – Book-Review/Abstract – In the Flickering of an Eye – Ms. Neelam Saxena Chandra

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments

In the Flickering of an Eye

A novel written by Ms. Neelam Saxena Chandra by LiFi Publications

Twenty five years worth of ‘what ifs’ and ‘if onlys’ have haunted and tortured Vinay. He cannot help but go back in time again and again to that one moment that changed his life forever. A chance encounter with a person from his past, and a journey through the majestic hills of Kalimpong lead him to some of his answers, in the form of an elusive woman, who bears a striking resemblance to the woman he loved and lost. Will he finally get his happily-ever-after? Or will his story, tarnished when he was nineteen by the gotra system, forever be punctuated with too many full stops?

Milind Uikey, Film Director Bollywood – This novel opens up the complexities of a novel writing through intricate inner world of writer himself.

Major Mohammed Ali Shah, Actor Bollywood – A very well narrated tale, engrossing from the beginning to the end

I. Puri, Art Writer, Curator & Documentarian – This novel is a beautifully imagined work, the story of a young couple in India today standing up to fight against caste prejudice.

Read on to find out more.

Excerpts from the book – In the Flickering of an Eye   

Both of them got down from the car. Vinay took his trolley bag and began moving in the direction of the station. Taking the bag in his hand, Anuj said, “If you don’t mind let me leave you till the train.”

Vinay objected vehemently at first. He did not like anyone helping him. However, Anuj’s words melted him. He said, “Would you have said no if I was your own son?”

Both of them walked silently. The train was stationed already at the platform. Anuj kept Vinay’s luggage below his berth, touched his feet and was about to leave when Vinay suddenly muttered, “Vinu did not die, Anuj. Neither did Manju.”

Anuj looked at him questioningly. However, Vinay was quiet as before. The engine whistled. Train began moving at slow speed. Anuj looked at Vinay again as if to ensure that what he had heard was indeed correct. However, Vinay had begun looking outside. Anuj quietly got down from the train.

हिन्दी साहित्य – कविता – ‘नदी रुकती नहीं ’ – डॉ गंगाप्रसाद शर्मा ‘गुणशेखर’

(डॉ गंगाप्रसाद शर्मा ‘गुणशेखर’ पूर्व प्रोफेसर (हिन्दी) क्वाङ्ग्तोंग वैदेशिक अध्ययन विश्वविद्यालय, चीन)

 

नदी रुकती नहीं 

 

पहाड़ से गिरकर भी

घुटने नहीं टेकती

उछलती,उफनती हुई

आगे बढ़ती है

शिलाखण्डों को दोनों हाथों से

ढकेलती है

यह नदी है

नदी रुकती नहीं

कहीं ठहरकर

उसे झील नहीं बनना है

कोई पोखर नहीं होना है

काई-कुंभी नहीं ढोना है

उसे बस बहना है

बहना ही है

नदी की असली पहचान

अपनी पहचान उसे नहीं खोना है

यही तो नदी का नदी होना है.
