थी यूँ तो शाम-ए-हिज्र मगर पिछली रात को
वो दर्द उठा 'फ़िराक़' कि मैं मुस्कुरा दिया
मुद्दतें गुज़री, तिरी याद भी आई न हमें
और हम भूल गए हों तुझे, ऐसा भी नहीं
-फ़िराक़ गोरखपुरी (उर्फ़ रघुपति सहाय)

Poetry is for those nights when you wake up at 2 AM.
Poetry is for those evenings when you have only yourself at 6 PM.
Poetry is for those souls who think they are lost. To show them that the path they are on is not solitary. That more lost souls have taken the same path.

When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world -- "No, YOU move.

Yes, and...
Everyone sees Arjun getting all the accolades.
No one seeing Arjun doing all the hardwork to be better every single day on every single talent.
And as they say, self pity is more luxurious than sweating it out. Day after day. Night after night.
I often wondered why common men from every age and generation have a soft spot for Karna, and not that much for Arjun.
Then I realized something.
Karna's popularity actually stems from a universal human trait- self-projection. When they see Karna, they just see a man of immense talent who was denied greatness by fate and society; and they recognize their own frustration in him.
Most people believe they had great potential that was thwarted by external factors (and never by themselves). They love and root for Karna because he validates their own identity as a tragic, unfulfilled hero.
No one would question why redevelopment of Bihar stations including only repainting, but were the first ones to offer the one Bihar achievement on the lotus feet of their leaders.
Apparently the Look East policy overlooks the state of Bihar.

What are we crediting him for?
It was Nitish Kumar's vision.
The PM, OTOH, has come up severely short in pushing the growth and development of Bihar.
The Bihar Museum has been ranked No. 1 in Asia and among the world’s best!
This is a proud moment for Bharat, bringing its glorious civilisational legacy into the global spotlight. True to Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi Ji’s vision of ‘Vikas bhi, Virasat bhi’, Bihar is embracing modern development while rekindling pride in its rich heritage and cultural identity.
If only...
Absolutely breathtaking view of the mighty Kosi River in Supaul, Bihar, with the Himalayas painting the horizon.
@TourismBiharGov must look beyond the Buddhist circuit and develop these hidden gems to put Bihar on the tourism map.

This is why science will never win against humanities.
One poem by Dinkar trumps every evidence brought forth by scholars.
Unpopular opinion, but without Shri Krishna’s support and divine powers working in Arjuna’s favour, no force on Earth could have stopped Suryaputra Karna from defeating Arjuna at Kurukshetra. Karna was a far better and stronger warrior than Arjuna.

The realest thing I have read about money.
People, especially finfluencers, make it the ultimate goal. Whereas it is just the tool to something bigger: happiness and discovery.
the thing is, one of the biggest things i've learnt from deepi is that money is ultimately just a tool. if you genuinely call yourself an entrepreneur, money was never supposed to be the end goal. yet somewhere along the way, a lot of founders and VCs seem to have forgotten that. at least, their actions don't reflect it.
with deepi, it's different. he's taken his own money and put it into projects that most people would consider stupid. we all saw how badly temple was mocked, and maybe it'll fail brutally. but that's almost beside the point. the willingness to try, to explore something purely out of curiosity, and to put your money where your curiosity is, is what i respect so much.
especially in a country like india, where most curious people can't afford to spend years figuring things out simply because their personal economics won't allow it. having the freedom to experiment like that is a privilege, and seeing someone actually use that privilege to explore things is genuinely inspiring.
there's a lot more i took away from reading unseen, his biography, but this is probably the biggest one. he's genuinely influenced the way i think, and honestly, i want to be like him in this regard. i've already earned the title of the "curious child" at my office lol, so i guess that's a start.
i genuinely hope all his experiments succeed, and maybe someday, i get to contribute to something he's building, shoulder to shoulder.
and if this ever reaches you, deepi, just know that you're one of my biggest inspirations. would love to build with the same curiosity someday.
forever my goat. ❤️

This is what happens when you keep talking in your circle with same mindset and without any understanding of the subject you are speaking about.
This is going to be a PR nightmare for the establishment. It's not going to stick in the courts and Imran's one of the most loved actors, he's going to get support from every corner!
