What do you fear the most? Ma went around the table asking each one to tell. Son was quick off the bat - losing all of you. (Isn't that a given, wife said, misty-eyed, she held out her hand. Still doesn't stop being a di
For an agnostic, I'm pretty vigorous in my temple-hopping. I don't let go even a single opportunity to visit a religious place. Earlier it was a visitation only if the temple was scenic (!) then I transitioned to "if it'
Too many love stories are about a single self-love. One person's agenda determines the relationship. And a couple subsumes into a singularity without a merger. There are those who survive, through will, by finding a life
Would things have been better if I had used different words? If I hadn't said what I did? If I hadn't done that, which in retrospect, seems short-term, short-sighted, short-everything. We realize mistakes, often whilst w
Human beings. Our blessed lives, this gracious breath, this universe. And then the small infractions blown out of proportion, the disputes, the ego play. Human beings doing what they do best - destroy what's good. And th
Darkness slips into every life. But it is upto us to allow it to slip into us. Except for lives marred with extreme deprivation and choicelessness, each one of us has the power to give direction to our destinies. Mystery
Covid was an incredible time for humankind. Rarely have each one of us confronted, in real time, and with examples pouring in daily, death as an occurrence which could hit any one of us, suddenly, irrevocably, and often
We are just ordinary people, living lives which often don't make sense, seeking our share of meaning, joy and fulfilment in our own ways. Embedded deep within - undefined, unspoken of, often unrecognised as such - are ti
Love can be pretty unrelenting. It's turgidity and its persistence can be intimidating to people who see it collapsing under its own weight and can't understand how it is still standing strong. People in love can separat
I love this poem because it condenses the thoughts which partners who separate from each other might have of the other. It's subtle, often the first flush of love, often the first separation. When you know the highs of l
Summers in Kolkata slide rather than blister, which is what happens when I visit Jhunjhunu. Both are experiences. There's no hiding place here because the humidity is omnipresent - but a shaded tree is enough to save you
This is a repeat of one of my more popular poems, replayed here with a hope of getting a new audience, who might have missed it. A colleague committed suicide today. 7 am. He woke up early, took a bath, did his pujo, and
A home is a person. I think I realized this a long time back. I loved all the homes I've stayed with my parents. Every time my dad changed jobs, and consequently cities and homes. And then in his final assignment in pris
We complicate relationships because we deny simplicity or simple ways of loving or - maybe - the simple solutions to complex things. Every relationship starts with a clean slate. Pure, unencumbered. Then it gets layered.
To awaken every morning is to reward oneself. The day is desperate for us to discover it, to unravel its mysteries and find its surprises. We do not have to fly or be special. We merely need to be excited. Then we can se
There's so much in this world to be unhappy about. The reasons are endless. And we can fallow in the silky self-indulgence of not being in control and letting circumstances take their toll on us. It's an irony of humanki
Don't we all know people who are gold - talented, beautiful, attractive - but who deep inside are uncertain about themselves. They doubt their abilities, and for ever (and ever) they look at every decision they take with
Haruki Murakami said "Death is not the opposite of life but a part of it." Loss is an inevitable part of life. It could be the loss of a pet, the end of a relationship or loss of a loved one, the loss of a friend, the lo
Marriage: it was the end of all illusions and the beginning of philosophy: marriage was a lesson in impermanence - not an idea, a daily unfolding. To remain calm in storms not of my making. Dinner is late. Plans change.
I sometimes feel we would be better people if we were slaves to love. Not to work for it, not to fantasize about it, not try to record of its wonder - but just to ease into its trust and surrender. Because the secret of
