Marg Aur Manjil

Translated from the back cover] Standing in front of Shiva Parvati poses a question thus "Please explain, O Lord Why is human life the best?" Riding on a wave of constantly evolving emotions, every life goes through cycles of pleasure-and-hardship, happiness-and-sorrow, victory-and-defeat, success-and-failure. Neither success is eternal, nor sorrow. Neither hardship is forever, nor victory. Caught in the currents of emotions from birth until death, we continuously face many challenges. Whatever the outcome, we remain incapable of understanding life's true meaning, why? The poems presented here are an attempt to understand this question.
