उडानको आधार

त्यो दिन हाम्रो भेट भएको पहिलो पटक थियो।

"के जानेकी छ्यौ," उसले सोध्यो।

"शब्दहरु खेलाउन जानेकी छु। यहि नै हो एउटा विशेषता," मैले भनि दिए।

उ एकैछिन मुस्कुरायो। अनि फेरी भन्यो, "शब्द संग  निकै  प्रेम छ जस्तो छ नि.… " उसले अरु केहि भन्नु अघि म फेरी बोल्न पुगें, "शब्द खेति नै हो जसले हामीलाई जोडेको छ , मल-जल पायो भने सम्बन्ध हरहराउँछ नभए येतिकै सुक्दै जान्छ बालक बबुरो। "

उ मुक्त कण्ठले हाँस्यो,"वास्तवमा नै जानेकी छ्यौ तिमीले शब्द खेलाउन।"

एक छिन कोहि केहि बोलेनौ।  ऊ नि सोच्न थालेँ जस्तो गरि बस्यो।  म नि चुप लागेर बसेँ।

"हो यसरि नै आफुलाई उड्न दिईरहनु।  अनन्त आकाश छ, रोक्ने हैन यी शब्द रुपी तिम्रा पखेटाहरुलाई। उड्न देउ, बग्न देउ।"

"रिचार्ड बेकको 'जोनाथन लिविङ्ग्स्टोन सी गल' पढेकी छ्यौ नि ?" उसले अचानक सोध्यो।

"छु," मैले संक्षिप्त उत्तर दिए।

"हो त्यो सी गलले जस्तै आफुलाई परिधिमा नबांधी अनन्त आकाशमा उड्नको लागि छाडी देउ। रमाइलो छ संसार। बस आफुलाई अनन्त उडान प्रदान गर," उ त्यहि लयमा भन्दै गयो।

म चुप लागेर उसको  कुराहरु सुनी रहेकि थिए।  चिया आइसकेको थियो हामी माझ।

त्यो चियाको चुस्की लिई म एकैछिन हराएँकि जस्ति भएँ। टाढा आकाशमा त्यहि सी गल नै उडेको देखेको जस्तो लाग्यो।  अचानक आ-आफै मुस्काउन थालेछु म।  उ अचम्म मानि मलाइ हेरी राखेको थियो।

Tale of the two worlds

She was busy wording her thoughts on the laptop, when a message popped up on the screen.

“Hey, how you doing?” was there on the notification bar. It was a brief call from him. A smile flaunted on her lips.

“I am doing good,” was her say.

“You seem lost ! Is everything okay?” was the question again.

“Yeah, all’s good,” she said.

In these two sentences, there belied a deep silence from both the ends. 

Nobody spoke.

She tried to gather back her thoughts and put them into wordings again but she was being captured by his thoughts. 

He-was her best friend, the friend she always looked upon. They didn't need to be talking through words to express themselves; even silence did the wonder all the time. They were that close.

But the silence that rose in few of those words was making her feel uncomfortable. Uncomfortable as those clouds she could see from her window that wanted to burst down as rain, but could not.

She picked up her phone, dialed his number. She found herself wordless, so cut off the phone. 

“He should be busy,’ she mumbled to herself.

The clouds had started thundering. Drizzles seem to downpour. 

She ran outdoors to collect the half-dried clothes. She was fast, yet rain was faster. She got drenched. Drenched whole her body. Looked up in the sky and let her soak the more.

Thoughts !

A sudden splash of thoughts
meager me
entangled
bareheaded

A sudden downpour of feelings
surprised me
confused
unconcerned

A roar of the inner quests
thoughtful me
wavering
dubious

A plight yet again
twitchy me
baffled
troubled

And those confirmed thoughts
determined me
handy
resolute

And there I fly
ecstatic me
ebullient
blissful

Existence

It said,"I don't feel like existing."

"Shh ! Existence is the best being, you can be in," I tried to convince.

It smiled.

I smiled back.

Coffee Chats

The second cup of coffee was getting colder on her table. Both the cups stood side by side. Dai had come the second time to remind her to drink the coffee.

"कफि चिसो भई सक्यो," (the coffee is cold) was his repeated remark.

"एक छिन दाइ म अहिले खान्छु," (Hold on, I will finish up in sometime) was her brief say.

She got back to her work again , her hands were moving briskly on the computer. As always there were piles of work to be accomplished. Time is never a constraint factor, a thought winded in her mind and as fast as the thought came that fast it flew away as well. She again got back to her work.

Dai came the third time to remind her of the coffee. A smile flew across her lips.

"हुन्छ दाइ खादैछु ल," (I am just having it brother) she said.

Dai seated on the nearby chair, this time making sure she doesn't forget her promise, while she was cautious enough to finish up her coffee. She finished the cold coffee in a sip; threw a smile at dai and got back to her work.

This was her daily routine. She had numerous reasons to not take care of herself. Sometime it would be work, the other time also it would be some more work. Dai went away with the cups and she was left aback thinking with works overhead.


She scrolled back to her daily routine. *Work* was synonymous to her bestest friend around now. Friends would call her up and they always had plenty of complains to start the chat with.

"Are you the only one working in this whole world? Everyone is busy. Everyone has got work, but you?" She would try to say something, but the words remained unheard. Family members had their say on her busy-ness. Everyone had complains-smaller or bigger complains existed.

Was she trying to hide herself under something??
Was she trying to over-do things?? 
Was there any way out??
Was she.....?? Plenty of questions surrounded her, "I have been a douchbag of questions,"she mumbled. Questions that were in need of answers desperately.

She jolted her head and called out, "दाइ मलाई एक कप कफि चाहियो" (Dai, I need a cup of coffee).

Dai was chuckling over her request, coz this was the first time she was asking  for a cup of coffee again. Dai smiled to her and started brewing the coffee. She got back to her work. 

Our coffee chats :-)!

Sometimes

Sometimes I,
stare at the words
feel them
contemplate 
and smile back

Sometimes I, 
try and listen  
the silence 
and then hear 
the unspeakables

Sometimes I,
try to know
the depths
go to measure
the unmeasurables

And then I,
creep aside
leave abide 
try to endure
the unsufferables

From those lands, I come !

भानु जयन्तिको उपलक्ष्यमा

भानु भक्ताचार्य प्रति
-आत्माराम ओझा

भाषा साहित्य सारा तब तक थियो औशी को रात जस्तो 
निन्द्रामा मग्न जस्तै भैकन सुतेको थियो  यो समाज। 
देखि  त्यस्तो अध्यारो तेस बीच छट्पट गर्दथिन राष्ट्र भाषा 
श्री भानुभक्तजीले झलमल दिनु  भो भानु झैँ स्वप्रकाश ।।

नारदजीलाई लोकको हित गर्न भनि सत्यलोकमा  पठाई 
रामायणको सरस हरि कथा काब्य दि रास्ट्रलाइ। 
नेपाली कण्ठ खोले पृथ्वी भरिमा घन्कीइन रास्ट्र बाणी 
काव्याम्रित चाखी चाखी रसिक जनहरु तृप्ति पाई रमाये।।

नेपाली काब्य धारा उद्गम स्थल भो भानुको काब्य श्रिस्टि 
श्रॆङ्गारे रास्ट्र भाषा पछि अरु कविले प्रेरणा पाई जसको। 
श्री भानुभक्तको यो अनुपम हुन गो रास्ट्रको लागि देन 
श्रद्धाको पुष्प अर्पण युग युग गर्ला देश नेपाल तिम्रो।।

(हजुरबुवाको कलम बाट)

Eureka's Mumblings !

Every time I started writing, my hand would scribble a few words and then suddenly it stopped. I had many reasons to tell but there was/is never a firm reason so that I can tell that this has been the reason I have not been able to jot down things. May be there had been many things to say or may be there was nothing to say. It was like I was trying to hide away things or maybe though I was not trying to hide even then there was no any pushing factor which would really help me get on track. Writing is actually a treat I could give to myself apart from few of those who would appreciate my writes and tell 'you should keep writing'. May be today I have pushed myself for the same reason too, to write even though I do not have anything special to write upon. May be sometimes some plotless write make more sense than the one with plot.

It's like a misty plotless world again, but as someone said there's a little light at the end of the tunnel. I too wish for some light at the end. 'Coz "I" believe :-)!
For "I's" believe :-)

Pictures !


Either you are drawing
or else you are drawn
pictures are those
that needs to be drawn

Depicts the feels
and then let you own
pictures are those
that needs to be drawn

Mirage !

A sudden splash of thoughts
meager me

bareheaded

A sudden downpour of feelings

surprised me
confused 
dumbfounded

Happiness

Few drops,
dropped on
few smiles,
came around

I held
the happiness
swipe
the sorrows

Laugh,
drags on
Life
moves on !

ऊ !

"भनेको थिए नि मैले, कि मैले तिमीले नै भनेको मान्नु पर्छ भनि । तिमी रिसाएको थियौ त तेति बेला, तर आखिर तिमीले भनेको नै मानि मैले जानु पर्यो नि । जुन कुराले तिमी रीसाएको थियौ आखिर तेहि भयो नि।"

Silence creeped in for a while....

"तिमी यति बिशाल हुन पुगेछौ कि मैले त छुन नै सक्ने रहेनछु नि साथी" यति भन्दै हिडिछे ऊ ।

इति !!

Metta !

The wind was blowing hard.

I complained, 'can't you stay at peace?'

Wind got calm for a while, smiled and whispered ,' I cannot live in "Metta". Hope you will'. And started blowing hard again.

It left !

It came across, stayed for a while-everything was okay and suddenly it said "I wish to leave" !

"You can't hold on sand for a long time" I remembered the alchemist said. "If it was yours it will come back to you", the prophet said !

I read between the lines, waved it off and moved on !

Metta!!
