माटी कहे कुम्हार से

माटी कहे कुम्हार से, तु क्या रौंदे मोय ।
एक दिन ऐसा आएगा, मैं रौंदूगी तोय ॥
(Maati kahe kumhar se, tu kya ronde moye.
ek din aisa ayega, main roudongee toye.)

This post is devoted to reviewing Contemporary Indian Artists with a special eye on how they use/manage their online presence. I started off by checking the Vadehra Art Gallery.

Aise Bani Boliye

We learnt this by-heart, thanks to Saukar Sir at school:
ऐसी बानी बोलिए, मन का आपा खोये ।
औरन को सीतल करे, आपहू सीतल होए ॥

(Aise Bani Boliye, Mun Ka Aapa Khoye
Auran ko Seetal kare, Aaphu Seetal hoye! )

A quick translation for my non-Hindi speaking friends:
Speak such words, which trancends ego,
Giving the listener peace, and which give peace to oneself!
