अब हथेली न पसारी जाए. धार पर्वत से उतारी जाए.
अपनी जेबो में भरे जो पानी उसकी गर्दन पे कटारी जाए.
अब वो माहौल बनाओ, चलके प्यास तक जल की सवारी जाए
झूठ इतिहास लिखा था जिनने भूल उनसे ही सुधारी जाए..
कोई हस्ती हो गुनाहोंवाली कटघरे बीच पुकारी जाए.
उनसे कह दो कि खिसक मंचों से साथ बन्दर का मदारी जाए
तोड़ दो हाथ दुशासनवाले द्रौपदी अब न उघारी जाए..

The Poet
चंद्रसेन विराट
Chandrasen Virat
1936 · 1990s
Chandrasen Virat fundamentally reshaped the architecture of the Hindi Ghazal, proving that the form could carry the cultural nuances of the Hindi language with absolute grace. Born in 1936 in Madhya Pradesh, he emerged as a leading architect of the Navgeet movement and a prolific master of the Ghazal structure. He moved away from the traditional Urdu tropes of wine and the tavern, choosing instead to ground his couplets in the aesthetics of nature, Indian philosophy, and the domestic realities of the middle class. Across a vast body of published work, he demonstrated a meticulous command over meter and rhythm. Virat did not write to impress the literary elite. He wrote to map the delicate emotional landscape of the ordinary individual, ensuring that the Hindi Ghazal achieved a distinct and entirely independent identity.
Paired Painting
Dushasan Vadh
This poignant and dramatic artwork captures one of the most intense and emotionally charged moments of the Mahabharata war, the slaying of Dushasana by Bheema. Driven by the sacred vow to avenge the unspeakable humiliation suffered by Draupadi in the royal court, Bheema stands victorious and fierce on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. The imagery evokes a profound sense of divine justice and moral retribution, reminding humanity that adharma, no matter how powerful it temporarily seems, ultimately faces a reckoning. The turbulent sky and the chaotic mass of soldiers in the background amplify the tragic grandeur of a fratricidal war that forever altered the spiritual landscape of Bharat.
