Angare Aur Dhuan
अंगारे और धुआँ
इतने पलाश क्यों फूट पड़े है एक साथ इनको समेटने को इतने आँचल भी तो चाहिए, ऐसी कतार लौ की दिन-रात जलेगी जो किस-किस की पुतली से क्या-क्या कहिए।

Poet of the Day
रसखान
Raskhan
Syed Ibrahim, who adopted the pen name Raskhan, represents one of the most beautiful spiritual transformations in the history of Indian literature. Born in the sixteenth century to a wealthy Muslim family, he experienced a profound awakening upon encountering the devotion of the Vaishnava tradition. He abandoned his worldly privileges, relocated to the sacred town of Vrindavan, and spent the rest of his life entirely consumed by a fierce, ecstatic love for Lord Krishna. Composing in Braj Bhasha, he authored verses that capture the divine playfulness of Krishna with unparalleled tenderness. His poetry transcends all religious boundaries, proving that ultimate devotion recognizes no rigid theology. Today, his couplets are recited with deep reverence in Hindu temples across the country. Raskhan stands as an eternal symbol of pure, unconditioned love, demonstrating that the divine can be accessed by anyone possessing a truly surrendered heart.
