श्री संजय भारद्वाज जी की मूल रचना
संजय दृष्टि – लघुकथा – शाश्वत 
– क्या चल रहा है इन दिनों?
– कुछ ख़ास नहीं। हाँ पिछले सप्ताह तुम्हारी ‘अतीत के चित्र’ पुस्तक पढ़़ी।
– कैसी लगी?
– बहुत अच्छी। तुमने अपने बचपन से बुढ़ापे तक की घटनाएँ ऐसे लिखी हैं जैसे सामने कोई फिल्म चल रही हो।….अच्छा एक बात बताओ, इसमें हमारे प्रेम पर कुछ क्यों नहीं लिखा?
– प्रेम तो शाश्वत है। प्रेम का देहकाल व्यतीत होता है पर प्रेम कभी अतीत नहीं होता। बस इसलिए न लिखा गया, न लिखा जाएगा कभी।

English Version by – Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi
~ Short story – Eternal ~
– What is going on these days?
– Nothing special. Yes, I read your book ‘Ateet ke Chitra’ –the Images of Past, last week.
– How did you like it?
– Very good. You have written the events from your childhood to old age as if a movie is playing in front of the eyes.….but…
Tell me one thing, why haven’t you written anything about our love in it?
– Love is eternal. The physical life of love passes but love never becomes the past.
It’s eternal. That’s why it was never written, nor will it ever be written.
