যাক অবসাদ বিষাদ কালো, দীপালিকায় জ্বালাও আলো -
জ্বালাও আলো, আপন আলো, শুনাও আলোর জয়বাণীরে॥
দেবতারা আজ আছে চেয়ে- জাগো ধরার ছেলে মেয়ে,
আলোয় জাগাও যামিনীরে।
#দীপাবলী
From darkness to light
From ignorance to knowledge
From hate to love ..
May we migrate

ঘরে ঘরে ডাক পাঠালো - "দীপালিকায় জ্বালাও আলো,
জ্বালাও আলো, আপন আলো, সাজাও আলোয় ধরিত্রীরে।"
#দীপাবলি
অন্ধকারের উৎস-হতে উৎসারিত আলো
সেই তো তোমার আলো!
সকল দ্বন্দ্ববিরোধ-মাঝে জাগ্রত যে ভালো
সেই তো তোমার ভালো ॥

I have witnessed this scene at Kolkata Airport last month, not to this level but would say about 75% of this, a family picnic on the floor, chairs, screaming, shouting, smell of achar, food at 6 am! Are we even in a position to fight unpleasant comments from other countries?
"True deliverance of man is the deliverance from Avidya i.e. ignorance. It is not in destroying anything that is positive and real, for that cannot be possible, but that which is negative, which obstructs our vision of truth." -

"In every age it has been the tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People" -

I always want to find a quiet place & stay there for some days. Wake up late, sip tea with a view. Listen to the birds. Go for walks. Read books, Reflect, look back. Do absolutely nothing else. Stillness and peace. That's all I look for from days away from home.

Public speaking isn't just about content, it’s about delivery. Despite the myth that soft skills are strictly inborn, they are learnable. While being loud, crass or aggressive might win over a select audience, it ultimately alienates the people we need to reach.

জীবন সমুদ্রের মতো, সংকীর্ণতা থেকে বেরিয়ে একে ওপরের পাসে থেকে, বেঁধে বেঁধে চলার চেষ্টা করা যেতেই পারে। আজকাল বিশেষ করে একটা উৎসব আসলেই কেনো এই আমার তোমার ওদের আমাদের নিয়ে মানুষের মনকে সংকীর্ণতায় ভরিয়ে তোলার চেষ্টা?
#RitwikGhatak highlighted the insecurity, struggle for existence, stigma of being uprooted, also tried to convey how #Partition struck at the roots of Bengali culture & sought to express the nostalgia & yearning that many Bengalis felt for their pre-Partition days & life.
Even if I have never endorsed Leftist ideologues nor my immediate family, I always thought Communists or those hailing from Communists families / background thrive on certain principles & lifestyle, perhaps not all as things are gradually unfolding.
2005 - 2013 , does it take that long to realise that my employer is one of the worst kind of human species before I finally decide to quit. Am baffled. Something dont add up quite right.
Scrutiny and accountability are core pillars of any democratic process. No leader or institution is immune to public judgment & the collective voice of the electorate remains the ultimate authority in shaping a nation's fate, only where such voices are not muted.

Many many Novembers back, on this very day I walked these paths as I commenced my work life ... and that life continues this day in the same city, just in another part of The City, the city I call Home.

আপনি কোন ধর্মে বিশ্বাস করবেন, সেটা বলা আমার ধর্ম হতে পারে না। যদি হয়, তাহলে তা অধর্ম।
শুভ সন্ধ্যা 🙏
