Would certainly wished for Times to have slowed down Amidst the hide and seek Of wavering thoughts The castles that were Built in the air Would one day collapse Quick judgments On tip of the iceberg Would never take you To its base Still waters would not have known The depth of its own Until few stones were thrown Shallow superficiality Is not known for its guarantee Of authenticity *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***

नमस्ते सदा वत्सले मातृभूमे
नमस्ते सदा वत्सले मातृभूमे त्वया हिन्दुभूमे सुखं वर्धितोऽहम् । महामङ्गले पुण्यभूमे त्वदर्थे पतत्वेष कायो नमस्ते नमस्ते ।।१।। प्रभो शक्तिमन् हिन्दु राष्ट्राङ्गभूता इमे सादरं त्वां नमामो वयम् त्वदीयाय कार्याय बद्धा कटीयं शुभामाशिषं देहि तत्पूर्तये । अजय्यां च विश्वस्य देहीश शक्तिं सुशीलं जगद्येन नम्रं भवेत् श्रुतं चैव यत्कण्टकाकीर्ण मार्गं स्वयं स्वीकृतं नः सुगं कारयेत् ।।२।। समुत्कर्ष निःश्रेयसस्यैकमुग्रं परं साधनं नाम वीरं व्रतम् तदन्तः स्फुरत्वक्षया ध्येयनिष्ठा हृदन्तः प्रजागर्तु तीव्राऽनिशम् । विजेत्री च नः संहता कार्यशक्तिर् विधायास्य धर्मस्य संरक्षणम् । परं वैभवं नेतुमेतत् स्वराष्ट्रं समर्था भवत्वाशिषाते भृशम् ।।३।। ।। भारत माता की जय ।। © राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ
उषःकाल होता होता, काळरात्र झाली
उषःकाल होता होता, काळरात्र झाली अरे पुन्हा आयुष्यांच्या पेटवा मशाली आम्ही चार किरणांची ही आस का धरावी जे कधीच नव्हते त्याची वाट का पहावी कसा सूर्य अंधाराच्या वाहतो पखाली तिजोर्यात केले त्यांनी बंद स्वर्ग साती आम्हावरी संसाराची उडे धूळ माती आम्ही ती स्मशाने ज्यांना, प्रेत ही ना वाली उभा देश झाला आता एक बंदीशाला जिथे देवकीचा पान्हा दूधाने जळाला कसे पुण्य दुर्देवी अन पाप भाग्यशाली धुमसतात अजुनि विझल्या चितांचे निखारे अजून रक्त मागत उठती वधस्तंभ सारे आसवेच स्वातंत्र्याची आम्हाला मिळाली
God, Universe and Us
He, the creator of The Universe We, His children Living in it Approach Him To Share, To talk Seeking support, strength In times of troubles and sorrows To show gratitude, Celebrate empathy and satisfaction To question sins, Rejections and the associated disapprovals In His faith, we believe Welcome birth Accept inevitable death Offerings to Him exclusively Complement our festivities His infinite ways of Showering blessings are strange In Him we see ourselves Traversing life In the hide and seek of Joy and sorrow In the cycle of Expectations and disappointments *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***
This Is Just Going To Hurt A Little Bit 🦷
One thing I like less than most things is sitting in a dentist chair with
my mouth wide open.
And that I will never have to do it again is a hope that I am against hope hopen
Because some tortures are physical and some are mental,
But the one that is both is dental
It is hard to be self-possessed
With your jaw digging into your chest
So hard to retain your calm
When your fingernails are making serious alterations in your life line
or love line or some other important line in your palm
So hard to give your usual effect of cheery benignity
When you know your position is one of the two or three in life
most lacking in dignity
And your mouth is like a section of road that is being worked on.
And it is all cluttered up with stone crushers and concrete mixers and
drills and steam rollers and there isn’t a nerve in your head that
you aren’t being irked on
Oh, some people are unfortunate enough to be strung up by thumbs
And others have things done to their gums,
And your teeth are supposed to be being polished,
But you have reason to believe they are being demolished
And the circumstance that adds most to your terror
Is that it’s all done with a mirror,
Because the dentist may be a bear, or as the Romans used to say, only
they were referring to a feminine bear when they said it, an ursa,
But all the same how can you be sure when he takes his crowbar in one
hand and mirror in the other he won’t get mixed up, the way you
do when you try to tie a bow tie with the aid of a mirror, and forget
that left is right and vice versa?
And then at last he says That will be all; but it isn’t because he then
coats your mouth from cellar to roof
With something that I suspect is generally used to put a shine on a
horse’s hoof
And you totter to your feet and think
Well it’s all over now and after
all it was only this once
And he says come back in three monce
And this, O Fate, is I think the most vicious circle that thou ever sentest,
That Man has to go continually to the dentist to keep his teeth in good
condition when the chief reason he wants his teeth in good condition
is so that he won’t have to go to the dentist
*** Composed by Ogden Nash ***
You made your mind
You made your mind Mine ? Mine, Just took some time Then, You took your time Leaving behind The said and unsaid You Didn't mind To unwind The little tangles In the colonies Of cobwebs, left undusted In an indefinite time You made your mind And Took a chance To see Our impulses Of joy Unconfined *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***
Happy New Year 2022
Another year has passed With a blink of an eye The challenging times of pandemic We have managed to survive With each day That passes by I can only feel nothing But grateful For this gift Called life Its greatness And simplicity As we continue To fight this battle Wishes and prayers Happy New Year 2022 to one and all *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***
Good enough
You fool! You believed them ? When They said You are good but not good enough That zero is not worth a thing, meaning if its used in the number at the very beginning And if followed by other digits its optimally accepted to end with ? Know here, that Its all about positioning Bias, it is The unconscious or conscious or the other types Ignorance is a bliss Walk your path gracefully Because there is Nothing better than becoming the best *** Composed by Vinit Desai ***
