Pyaare YA Ke Doston,

Hope you are doing well and taking a pause as we enter a new year. In one sense new year comes with just a change of day and nothing actually changes but birthdays, new year, or festivals are an occasion to take a pause and reflect on life.

The past couple of years have been extremely difficult for many around us. It has exposed the fragility of life, the importance of relationships and given us an opportunity to understand what’s truly important in life. One thing that many of us have craved is physical connections in these times when the virtual world is thriving.

As we start the new year, we thought that it will be great to start the new year with our dear friends around. On 2nd January 2022, we would love to invite you for a gathering of friends at our home. The plan is to have fun, play games, and also delve deeper within.

We also wish to begin the year, with a little ritual to remember our ancestors or loved ones who have left us physically in recent times. If you wish, we would request you to bring a quote, a passage, a poem, or a song that you would want to dedicate to your ancestors or your loved ones who are not with us physically. We will take an hour from 3-4 pm to listen to each other and share what we have brought along. If you can't come in person but want to join this circle, we will share the link for those connecting online, just drop a line :) 

Date: 2nd January 2022
Time: 1 pm to 5:30 pm (Lunch onwards)
Remembering our Ancestors Circle: 3-4 pm (Both in-person and online)
Home Address: B-203, Antariksh Green, Sector 50, Noida (Closest metro is Sector 34 Metro station)

We would love to begin our new year with you, looking forward to having you in our lovely home!

Drop a line to confirm your presence. 

Awaiting,
Prakhar

Dear all,

A very happy new year to you ! Wishing you light this year. 

To celebrate this beginning, we were supposed to catch up tomorrow at our place but unfortunately due to COVID rise we think it is better that we start this year with precautions and safety. Hence as much as we wanted to have you all here tomorrow, we are postponing the gathering in hope that wherever we are, we shall reflect, sing, dance, talk, and much much more.

Also, in case we did find something to share, let’s share on the mail for everyone to soak it in. I am sharing mine below !!

Once again, Happy New Year !  

Sharing this beautiful poem by Amanda Gorman called New Day’s Lyrics here :) it talks about ways we can embrace the coming future and make it our present.

Sharing this Poem called “Travel”, which motivates oneself to travel (outward and inward) and get amazed !

Sharing a note from one of my insta account that I follow, on “grief” which very delicately tells me about my in depth relationship with grief which gave me a little more perspective.

Hope you enjoy !!

Love,
Prakhar

Dear Prakhar Bhaiya 

Thank you for inviting us to celebrate the new year with our extended/ core family.

currently, I am more thoughtful and aligned and having too many thoughts of Gandhi and Vinoba in my heart and my head is roaming around the sustainability of self and org.

Feeling to share few thoughts of Jayesh Bhai in our last conversational poem of a very good young poet named Vihag Vaibhv from BHU.

Jayesh Bhai - 
1. Hum Vighya aur Gyan ke chkaakr me kshram ka mahatv bhul jaate hain.

2. Hamare kaam me visible impact aur invisible service hona chahiye.

3. Result par focus karenge to relation bigad jaayenge par relation par focus karenge to result aayega.


poem of Vihag bhai 
 
लड़ने के लिए चाहिए
थोड़ी-सी सनक, थोड़ा-सा पागलपन
और एक आवाज़ को बुलन्द करते हुए
मुफ़्त में मर जाने का हुनर

बहुत समझदार और सुलझे हुए लोग
नहीं लड़ सकते कोई लड़ाई
नहीं कर सकते कोई क्रान्ति

जब घर मे लगी हो भीषण आग
आग की जद में हों बहनें और बेटियाँ
तो आग के सीने पर पाँव रखकर
बढ़कर आगे उन्हें बचा लेने के लिए
नहीं चाहिए कोई दर्शन या कोई महान विचार

चाहिए तो बस
थोड़ी-सी सनक, थोड़ा-सा पागलपन
और एक खिलखिलाहट को बचाते हुए
बेवजह झुलस जाने का हुनर

जब मनुष्यता डूब रही हो
बहुत काली आत्माओं के पाटों के बीच बहने वाली नदी, तो
नहीं चाहिए कोई तैराकी का कौशल-ज्ञान
साँसों को छाती के बीच रोक
नदी में लगाकर छलाँग
डूबते हुए को बचा लेने के लिए
चाहिए तो बस
थोड़ी-सी सनक, थोड़ा-सा पागलपन
और एक आवाज की पुकार पर
बेवजह डूब जाने का हुनर ।

बहुत समझदार और सुलझे हुए लोग
नहीं सोख सकते कोई नदी
नहीं हर सकते कोई आग
नहीं लड़ सकते कोई लड़ाई ।

“Give your hands to serve, and your hearts to love.” Mother Teresa

With Gratitude
