 ।। धर्म की पोटली ।। 


ये धर्म की पोटली में

जो ख़ुराक़ रखी है

नाम धर्म का है

पर खुराक नकली है


पिलाया गया ज़हर

धर्म के नाम पर

सदियों से

बनाया गया गुलाम

धर्म के नाम पर

सदियों से

ये बस है एक दुकान

ये पहचान नक़ली है


धर्म के ये ठेकेदार

दिखते हैं हाथ जोड़े

लगता है इनसे सभ्य कोई नहीं

पर दिल में है खंज़र

और ये मुस्कान नकली है

पर दिल में है खंज़र

और ये मुस्कान नक़ली है


बनते हैं ये समाज सुधारक

पर दुनिया को सबसे ज़्यादा

है इन्ही से खतरा

क्योंकि ये जो दिखते हैं

वो पहचान नक़ली है


ये धर्म के नाम पर

सिर्फ भीड़ चाहते हैं

ये भीड़ वाला धर्म

और ये ईमान नक़ली है

Importance of communication

I had started my career as a lecturer from Allahabad. I still have remembrance of my first lecture. It was of Engineering Drawing. I started the lecture by asking a question. I asked, "what is the biggest problem of the world". It was a strange question as far as Engineering Drawing class was concerned, seems to be irrelevant. But, answers were started coming from the students. Some of them said that pollution is the biggest problem etc. After getting the answers and compiling them I said that according to me all these problems can be treated as a big problem but the reason behind them is the biggest challenge or problem in itself and that is the communication gap. Communication gap is the cause of all. If you see pollution as a problem, it is difficult to understand that one of the causes of it can be a communication gap. But it is one of the cause as the authorities at some level not communicating to a good level. The result is in the lower awareness level of the people...

An excerpt

Following is an excerpt from my book 'I AM NOT NITIN’ - I could have more than billions of names by just replacement of time place and parents to which I am born. Our birth is just accidental. The name with which I identify much saying I am so and so and I belong to such a family is just accidental. So, I was born nameless but as a hope for my family. Someday this child could possibly raise the name of the family by becoming successful. I think every father and mother in this world asks this question to their child, "What will you become; A doctor or engineer, someone big." The question shows the longing of parents for their child to achieve something in society. And the name is just not a name; it is also a projection of this longing, this desire. In India, some of the families have a tradition of giving a name to the child ceremonially, and the ceremony is named as, ‘Naam karan sanskar’. The ceremony includes giving a name to the child by so...

Views of Napoleon Hill about Mahatma Gandhi

“Let us consider the power of FAITH, as it is now being demonstrated, by a man who is well known to all of civilization, Mahatma Gandhi, of India. In this man the world has one of the most astounding examples known to civilization, of the possibilities of FAITH. Gandhi wields more potential power than any man living at this time, and this, despite the fact that he has none of the orthodox tools of power, such as money, battleships, soldiers, and materials of warfare. Gandhi has no money, he has no home, he does not own a suit of clothes, but HE DOES HAVE POWER. How does he come by that power? HE CREATED IT OUT OF HIS UNDERSTANDING OF THE PRINCIPLE OF FAITH, AND THROUGH HIS ABILITY TO TRANSPLANT THAT FAITH INTO THE MINDS OF TWO HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE. Gandhi has accomplished, through the influence of FAITH, that which the strongest military power on earth could not, and never will accomplish through soldiers and military equipment. He has accomplished the astounding feat of INFLUENCIN...
