पाप का घडा जब भर जाता है
भगवान का सामना करना पड़ जाता है

जुल्म बहुत करें हैं धरती पर
अब देना पड़ रहा है भारी कर

अब तो ठहर जाओ
अब तो रुक जाओ

बस करो परवानों
सहज जाओ दिवानो

लालसा की कोई सीमा नहीं
महतवकाषा की कोई कमी नहीं

कहां जाना है
कहां जाओगे
क्या चाहते हो
क्या पाओगे
जो पाया है सब खो दोगे

जब यह धरती नहीं
तो हम नहीं
संभल जाओ ठहर जाओ
एक नयी लहर ले आओ

यह गीत बहुत पुराना है
पर नया कुछ कर दिखाना है

अब तो ठहर जाओ
अब तो रुक जाओ

बस करो परवानों
सहज जाओ दिवानो

CONTRIBUTION OF A HOUSEWIFE TO SOCIETY

Oh I don’t work, I am just a housewife! An oft spoken and heard expression it has for as far as we remember meant that a housewife really is a married woman who sits at home doing nothing much but enjoying her married life. What is even more alarming is the fact that the term ‘housewife’ has offensive overtones for most people. Somewhere till the 20 th Century, in the early 1900s, women were expected to stay at home, and those who wanted to work were often stigmatized. Today it’s mostly the other way round. Across the developed world, women who stay home are increasingly seen as old-fashioned and an economic burden to society. Though there are husbands especially in India who look forward to a warm meal and a comfortable house when they reach back home from work, more and more of them feel that housewives are well ‘just housewives’, a community which is a big burden on society and is at best ignored. With so many confusing inputs I felt I really needed to delve into

STARS CAN'T SHINE WITHOUT DARKNESS

“If I can impact one life in this entire process of speaking up and letting people know that it's something I have been through and something that I could deal with because I had a fantastic support system." …said Deepika Padukone breaking the silence, shame and stigma around depression and anxiety some months ago. According to WHO statistics, India is the most depressed country in the world. At 36% this is the highest rate of depression anywhere in the world. However, mental health is not thought of or given importance as much as physical health is. The shame, the embarrassment, the humiliation people attach to mental illness such as depression and anxiety especially in India, is phenomenal. No one wants you to talk about it, you are not allowed to take medication, what will people say or think, you are going to lose your job, are only some of the things that go through your mind or your family’s when you or they encounter the word “depression or anxie

The Life and Death of a Family and Nation

  “People join the Army and Police to die and are paid to die…” said the self-assured Bihar minister as millions of TV viewers watched aghast at the insensitivity and brazenness of an arrogant politician.    The hue and cry raised over the issue frankly left me untouched and unmoved as do many of the concerns raised by the media and the so called political parties.  Why you may ask am I not angry at the rant of this callous man who feels that people act and behave in a particular way only because they are paid for it? That’s because I have heard it before…from not one, not two but many people who feel that the people employed in the Armed Forces are a blessed lot who party and drink with great gusto and then….well that is all that they do. According to most people (civilians as they are referred to), the job involves ‘free rations, Canteen facilities, cheap and good liquor and subsidised accommodation.’ As an Air Force daughter (21 years) and now a wife (18 yea
