महात्मा गाँधी



खान भाईयों के साथ उ० प० सीमा प्रांत मे



अफगानिस्तान सीमा पर




इतिहास के किस बिन्दु पर इतनी महान आत्माएं एक साथ एक मंच पर दिखतीं हैं




अकेला मसीहा नफ़रत के खिलाफ मोर्चा लिए हुए, बंगाल में एकला चलो रे!

सेवा !


इंदिरा के साथ


बा और बापू १९३८



रहनुमा की रहनुमाई, भविष्य के हाथों में कमान


स्निग्ध मुस्कराहट


लार्ड माउन्टबेटन और एड्विना के साथ


नेहरू और गाँधी

कस्तुरबा गाँधी और महात्मा गाँधी (बा और बापू )




युवा मोहनदास करमचन्द्र गाँधी

Munna Bhai

Well, in the starting I abused Sanjay for creating embarrassment for his reputated and noble father. I was about 14 yrs ago when he was arrested and sent to jail. As the case went on I gradually turned soft on Sanjay but I knew he broke the law and he will be punished and he must be punished. I felt happy when Judge said that he is not a terrorist even then I knew that he will get the punishment for his crime. Its hard to see such a versatile entertainer behind the bars but I don’t think it is unfair or any type of injustice.
I want to discuss what this guy,whom India Today says “Mother India ka kabhi bada na hone wala bachcha” gave us. Few days back my little niece was talking me and she told me that she likes Gandhiji. i asked what she likes in Gandhi ji, she told me that he is so nice man. then i asked her what she knows about him. she told me about slaps on face and so on. i said he said this because he was not so strong to answer the slap. Now she told me that he was not weak and it was his way to make the other guy good. I knew it all, I knew<, Gandhi is not name of majboori but he is a majbooti which we cant understand because we are so weak to understand. I knew all this because I read a lot of books, but my niece knew it because she saw the movie of Munna bhai(wahi bachcha jo kabhi bada nahi hoga according to India Today). She is not 8 and she knows this philosophy of making people good. I don’t know all those who learnt about Gandhi in Munna Bhai classes, will keep it with them or not but atleast they knew a little. I rememeber few years back many college going youths were not clear about Gandhi and his identity.
I smiled a little when i knew that Sanjay is sent to Yarwada jail where Mahatma spent much of his time. Infact for a long time i was thinking about postive punnishments and these days just because of the appeal of Sanjay i felt the need of such punnishments more. As we could have used his appeal for some purpose for our society.

The Nuke Deal

Well so the heat is on, on the nuke deal and now NDA wants parliamentary approval for the deal as if it has no knowledge about the rule and the fact that the deal doesn't needs that.
I want to say a few things about things going on these days. Three groups out off four in the parliament are against the deal and every one has separate reason for that. Lets see how; First about the so called UNPA. The group is against such deal with US and says that it is against the national interests, how they won't tell. Infact they had decided to go against anything which UPA does. After all they are making an alternative. There is Samajwadi Party which is opposing the deal because it is with USA and I still remember how happy Mr. Amar Singh was to throw red carpet to Mr. Clinton and posing his visit as the major achievement of the Samajwadi Party and thinking that others are not happy because Mr. Clinton is their guest. The show was embrassing but now they are posing of being anti American, with the C B Naidu, whose time was remarkable just because of visits from US and visits to US.
NDA is opposing the deal, saying it is against the national interest. I guess they think the interest of BJP and co. is the interest of the nation and as they could not make this deal and now UPA is making this deal so it is against. If they would have been in power they would have tried for the deal but alas the power changes every thing. George saab! you said nothing when you got stripted depite of being minister from India and now crying foul?
And the left, if the deal would have been with China, they would have supported it but it is US, the enemy of communism, though not of India, so they will be against it. Dear communists what you were thinking for last two years when the deal was in process? you were sleeping then? Now when the deal is final you got it bad? And yes communists were never in favour of India's nuke programme, and this deal is going to give uninterrupted uranium supply for India's nuke programms, so how communists can be happy with it. After all they will support only Iran's nuclear programme. Well communists China was not happy with the deal but now on your opposition they are happy. Feeling Good?
I am in favour of this deal because I know we need Uranium for our peaceful projects, for more power and for progress. The deal is on the basis of equality between US and India. This is for our energy needs. I see no harm in it. Dear Prime Minister if this time you surrender it will cast us much. please say firmly that the deal is done and it is for our future.

Chand aur manushya

रात यों कहने लगा मुझसे गगन का चाँद,
आदमी भी क्या अनोखा जीव होता है!
उलझनें अपनी बनाकर आप ही फँसता,
और फिर बेचैन हो जगता, न सोता है।

जानता है तू कि मैं कितना पुराना हूँ?
मैं चुका हूँ देख मनु को जनमते-मरते
और लाखों बार तुझ-से पागलों को भी
चाँदनी में बैठ स्वप्नों पर सही करते।
आदमी का स्वप्न? है वह बुलबुला जल का
आज बनता और कल फिर फूट जाता है
किन्तु, फिर भी धन्य ठहरा आदमी ही तो?
बुलबुलों से खेलता, कविता बनाता है।

मैं न बोला किन्तु मेरी रागिनी बोली,
देख फिर से चाँद! मुझको जानता है तू?
स्वप्न मेरे बुलबुले हैं? है यही पानी?
आग को भी क्या नहीं पहचानता है तू?
मैं न वह जो स्वप्न पर केवल सही करते,
आग में उसको गला लोहा बनाता हूँ,
और उस पर नींव रखता हूँ नये घर की,
इस तरह दीवार फौलादी उठाता हूँ।
मनु नहीं, मनु-पुत्र है यह सामने,
जिसकीकल्पना की जीभ में भी धार होती है,
बाण ही होते विचारों के नहीं केवल,
स्वप्न के भी हाथ में तलवार होती है।

स्वर्ग के सम्राट को जाकर खबर कर दे-
रोज ही आकाश चढ़ते जा रहे हैं वे,
रोकिये, जैसे बने इन स्वप्नवालों को,
स्वर्ग की ही ओर बढ़ते आ रहे हैं वे।

India Social Forum-2006

What New Delhi stands for you? May be the capital of India, may be center of power, may be the city of so called big people but to be very sure from today thousands of people from every corner of India and world will remember it as a place where they shared their dreams with people like them around the world. They are going to remember New Delhi as the place where they shared their pains and rose their weak voices strongly. The difference is- they are participating in India Social Forum(ISF) 2006.

The ISF is third event organized by WSF-India; Asian Social Forum-2003 and the WSF-2004. Building another world: visions for the future'' -- as the theme suggests -- focuses on engendering dialogue, optimism and hope, by creating a space that will enable a greater mobilization of resources for an alternative future within India, Asia and Africa.. The event started on November 9, 2006 with a grand gathering of more than 60,000 people on the exhibition ground near JLN Stadium. The excitement, the joy and sense of belongingness with the ISF was more than visible in the gathering. People were there to say something about themselves, about others perhaps for the first time in their life. Every action and every scene was telling the truth that it is a self motivated gathering from grassroots.

The show began with folk music when Ramdayal Munda with his people from Jharkhand made a cultural presentation which was followed by a poetry reading session by renowned Urdu poet Shahryar. It was an all women panel to inaugurate the event showing the concern of the WSF for women empowerment. When weak but firm voice of Irol Sharmila of Manipur made the declaration that she will keep on her fast till the People of Manipur get justice, everyone in the ground was moved. She has refused food, water and medical attention, since November 2000, to protest Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act. Tulsi Mai Munda, a tribal leader of Orissa talked about dreams of a better status of women in India. While Eileen Kuttab, activist from Palestine, narrated her experiences while working with the women in her country. She had been at the forefront of the Palestinian struggle and women's movement during the days of the first Palestinian Intifada. Medha Patekar, the NBA activist, Wahu Kara, a global social justice campaigner from Kenya, discussed about the impacts of Goobalization. Ruth Manorama talked about her efforts to break the upper-class, upper-caste image of women's movement in India.

It was a dreamy evening where everyone was there to share dreams which contained simple wishes, the wishes which has the capacity to change the world. The small dreams which are powerful enough to make the world happier and pretty. At the end of the function when the small fog particles started to make the sight diminished, the dreams were getting clearer and the faces were getting brighter. You dont need some thing extra to read the clear message in their eyes saying- Yes! Another World Is Possible.

the jar of life

Jar Of Life
A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks about 2" in diameter.
He then asked the students if the jar was full?
They agreed that it was.
So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor then picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He then asked once more if the jar was full. The class responded with a unanimous, 'YES'!
The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the desk and proceeded to pour their entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the emptyspace between the sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things - your family, your partner, your health, your children - things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car, etc. The sand is everything else. The small stuff in your life." "If you put the sand into the jar first", he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner and dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party, and fix the disposal.""Take care of the rocks first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers."
