अहम की ओढ़ कर चादर फिरा करते हैं हम अक्सर
अहम अहमों से टकराते बिखरते चूर होते हैं मगर फिर भी अहम के हाथ हम मजबूर होते हैं अहम का एक टुकड़ा भी नया आकार लेता है ये शोणित बीज का वंशज पुनः हुंकार लेता है अहम को जीत लेने का अहम पलता है बढ़-चढ़ कर अहम की ओढ़ कर .....
विनय शीलो में भी अपनी विनय का अहम होता है वो अन्तिम साँस तक अपनी वहम का अहम ढोता है अहम ने देश बाँटॆ हैं अहम फ़िरकों का पोषक है अहम इंसान के ज़ज़्बात का भी मौन शोषक है अहम पर ठेस लग जाये कसक रहती है जीवन भर अहम की ओढ़ करे चादर ...

The Poet
अमिताभ त्रिपाठी 'अमित'
Amitabh Tripathi ‘Amit’
Amitabh Tripathi 'Amit' belongs to a rare class of contemporary Hindi poets who write to hold up an unflinching mirror to society. His verse is stripped of complex academic jargon and strikes directly at the center of modern Indian realities. In works like his celebrated poem "Bas Itna Sa Samachar Hai" (This is All the News There Is), Tripathi captures the everyday ironies, widespread corruption, and moral compromises of the present age with devastating precision. He dismantles hollow idealism and gives a powerful voice to the common man navigating a broken system. To read Amitabh Tripathi is to be awakened from civic slumber. His poems are not merely complaints; they are urgent pleas for a return to collective conscience and integrity.
Paired Painting
Dark and difficult was the Road
This profound work captures a somber moment from the great epic Mahabharata, illustrating Yudhishthira as he traverses the harrowing path toward the afterlife. Abanindranath Tagore, a pioneer of the Bengal School, masterfully renders the spiritual weight of this journey. The luminosity emanating from Yudhishthira contrasts with the grim, cavernous underworld filled with the remnants of mortality. It serves as a visual meditation on the burdens of duty, the solitude of the righteous, and the inevitable shadows one must face before reaching ultimate transcendence.
