इस पर्वत के पार एक नीलमवाली घाटी है, परियां आती रोज जहां पर संध्या और सकारे!
आज चलो इस कोलाहल से दूर प्रकृति से मिलने वन फूलों के साथ खेलने और खुशी से खिलने स्वच्छ वायु, निर्मल जलधारा .हरे-भरे फूले वन, कलरव कर ते रंगरंग के पक्षी रूप सँवारे!
पशु-पक्षी ये जीव हमारी दुनिया के सहभागी, जो अधिकार हमें धरती पर वैसा ही उनका भी बुद्धि मिली है सबके लिये विचार करें अपना सा एक शर्त बस -जो भी आये मन में आदर धारे
परियाँ वहीं खेलने आतीं जहाँ प्यार बिखरा हो, जड़-चेतन के लिये मधुर सद्भाव जहाँ निखरा हो धरती की सुन्दर रचना सम-भाव सभी को धारे और शपथ लो यही कि इसमें माँ का रूप निहारें!

Pratibha Saxena
Dr. Pratibha Saxena holds a distinct and vital place in contemporary Hindi literature. Her work connects the rigorous intellectual demands of academia with the sensitive realities of human relationships. Born on February 9, 1938, in Madhya Pradesh, her life path took her from the lecture halls of Kanpur, where she worked as an educator, to a diasporic existence in the United States. This geographical shift is highly visible in her diverse literary output, which includes poetry, short stories, and satire. In collections like Uttar Katha and Seema Ke Bandhan, she examines the modern domestic sphere. She highlights the subtle constraints placed upon women and the shifting dynamics of family life with deep psychological insight. Her language carries a quiet and confident thoughtfulness that never shouts but still commands complete attention. Saxena has spent decades enriching Hindi literature, demonstrating that a writer can remain deeply rooted in their native culture while living far from home.
Paired Painting
Romantic Landscape
This intimate view captures the soulful essence of nature as perceived by the masters of the Düsseldorf school. Johann Wilhelm Schirmer possessed a profound ability to translate the quiet hum of the wilderness into paint, inviting the viewer to step onto the path and lose themselves in the undulating mountains. It is a work of deep contemplation, reflecting the Romantic era's yearning for a divine connection with the untamed earth. The gentle light filtering through the foliage suggests a moment of stillness, a breath caught in time where the spirit of the artist and the viewer find common ground amidst the trees.
