Diwali festival of lights

Posted on by Shashank Narayan

Since childhood diwali is one of my favorite festival, three things attracted me the most first is sweets, second is new cloth and third one are crackers, time passed but I still miss those pleasant days when I was a kid I kept roaming around the street nearby firing my crackers, this year being difficult for entire world, after a long I just came back from home to IIT  Kanpur celebrating diwali without crackers, friends and family 👪. Covid 19 changed a lot so many unfortunate incident but every challenging incident evolve us in a different way, whole schedule changed drastically

Diwali morning from the balcony of my hostel

The day started with a shower of sunshine, sun a symbol of hope and life, watching sunrise 🌅 is my new favorite activity

The best part of the day is I didn’t have to go to lab 🔬today 😂, covid taught us to work from home 🏠 just 2-3 hours work today and then my laptop turned into my own theatre screen

This is the my workplace at home my study table 🙂

Hostel premise a lush green and one of the most beautiful campus you will ever see, this diwali I was just kept on feeling the grace and beauty of nature

Side walk 🚶of the hostel
I can watch this for hours and each time I found it more beautiful 😍

This one is quite unique diwali for me maintaining social distancing 👤✖️👤 norms away from home 🏠 and family but close to nature 🌿🍃

Finally in night I have lighten up two candles 🕯 in front of my hostel room

These two candles made my day I felt like I’m lightning a cracker 😂
Small diyas lighten up at the main gate of my hostel

This Diwali was one of the most unique and different experience for me, I wish this Covid situation gets better soon, Happy Diwali to all, may your life get fulfilled with joy and happiness 🙂

Wake up it’s a beautiful sunrise 🌞
The rays of hope touching the skies ⛅
Let the joy of the sun reflect from your face
Open your arms and embrace this divine grace.

Feel the breeze a pleasant music without words
Start your day with an orchestra 🎶 of birds
Fields are covered by white mystical fog
Tie up your shoes let’s go for a  jog …

Wake up it’s a beautiful sunrise 🌞

Humanity dies

Posted on by Shashank Narayan

Earlier I used to think that smoking and alcohol consumptions are deadly addiction that a person should avoid as it is harmful for the person, but now  I changed my perception that religion is the most stupid addiction which has the potential to kill 🔪 millions. When I look back in the past I see bloodshed in the name of holy war and currently when we are struggling against a pandemic religious people are doing their best to humiliate humanity again.

The God which created you people must be thinking right now

“How someone can be that stupid and dumb, justifying lynching and riot in the name of religion!!“

Grandma’s stories👵👵

Posted on by Shashank Narayan

Since childhood, stories attract me the most, my grandma 👵 used to tell a story before I sleep 😴, with time grandma completed her human life and she left us with her blessings and lots of love ❤ she often tell us the story of all variety the story which affected me the most was a story related to Buddha the story is;

One day Buddha was passing by a village many of his devotees came across to see him and ask him for salvation from their life troubles, Buddha answered each of them with a pleasant smile on his face.

There was a women who lost her only child recently, due to some disease, she came in front of Buddha, and described her immense pain and sorrow and asked if somehow he could make his child alive again, as he was only hope for this poor lady. 

Buddha thought for a while and replied, ok mother! I can bring life to your son but I have one small condition which you need to fulfill.

The lady replied with a joy while quickly wiping her tears yes!! I will do whatever you say.

Buddha said I need a handful of rice 🍚 just make sure that you bring the rice from the home 🏠 where no one had died.

Hearing this, lady quickly rushed to the nearby houses asking for a handful of rice, she got more than as she demanded, suddenly she reminded the condition to the owner of the house, owner replied no! Few years back we lost our daughter, the lady became sad and moved to another house.

The lady ransacked each and every house of the village but she could not find a single home where no one died, now the lady had no clues what to do, she sat in the sidewalk thought about it consciously, she had a smile on her face, she went near to Buddha bowed down folded her hands and thanked Buddha, Buddha greeted her with a smile the lady became a monk now perhaps she came to know the reality of life and Buddha taught this life lesson in a unique way.


When I heard this story I was just 8-9 year old kid I thought Buddha did wrong he should have bring her kid alive, but as I grew up I found Buddha a greatest philosopher of all time a divine entity in true sense.

We can’t find a single soul who hasn’t suffered in this life, so stop complaining and blaming, accept your pain and move on that’s life that is how it goes on…

From the cradle to the coffin life shows us countless faces, 🎭
No matter how powerful you are, you will turn in to the ashes.

The life you trying to hold forcefully is so temporary in nature, 🌿🍃
One day for the rest of the world you will be just an album picture. 🖼️

You are mortal keep that in mind be gentle and be kind,
Never let your ego, greed and lie make you stupid blind.

Hatered, lust and the crimes which you do against humanity,
One day Almighty death will be accounting your brutality.

Rape the worst crime which you can do against humanity, horrific face of the ugly being…

I saw her in the park where me and my friends 👭👬👫 used to play cricket 🏏, she was sitting on the bench with a sketchbook 📕 in her hand and a set of pencils ✏ probably she was an artist 🎨🎭🙋, I don’t know much about painting, and wasn’t interested in sketches at that moment, but when I saw her, the girl with long black hair, round spectacles with an innocent look on her face 👩‍🎨. In my mind *I felt like yes I will buy a sketchbook 📕and start painting 🎨 and probably will sit next to her and show her my drawings* my daydream got broken when a ball 🏈 coming straight towards me and it was four 4⃣  I missed the ball, and my friends were like “what the hell you doing man 😡😠”,  suddenly all of them figured it out where I was actually looking at that time ⌚. They saw her too and I was like play the game you silly morons 😡. Whenever anyone finds a chance they keep sneaking at her and that time ⌚ I was pointing out who the hell is looking at her 😡. After collecting all my courage I pushed the ball towards her, rushed at her and asking her to pass the ball🥎, she looked back at me smiled and passes the ball towards me. * I was like I’m in heaven now she definitely will be my wife 👰 though she seems few years older than me but yes I will marry her I was determined in my mind 💍*.
After she left and we went back home, I was so keen and waiting ⏳ restlessly for the next evening, on the next eve when we reach the ground first thing I wanted to see is that bench and on that the girl, oh 😲 she is not here yet, waited and waited but she didn’t come. * I was like I have been thrown away from heaven to hell* days passed but she wasn’t there, on the Saturday eve when we reached the ground there she was, the girl sitting on the bench with her sketchbook 📕. There was no limit of my joy I just wanted to wave at 👋 her and ask her where you been I was so worried 😔, but I controlled my emotions and managed to smile only, she smiles back and got busy in her painting 🎨. Now I figured it out that she comes on Saturday eve only and maybe she was a college student 👩‍🎓so very less time ⌚ for other activities, she watches our game as well while sitting and drawing, she often appreciates me with her facial expressions, when I do good in the game, like taking wickets or hitting a four 4, I caught her laughing 🤣😂as well whenever I do mistakes, like dropping catches, so many emotions yet no words were spoken. After a few months, she stopped coming as well maybe her studies got over or any other things I don’t know anything about her, yet I remember her the girl with a sketchbook.


Sometimes a story doesn’t need a word to say and it doesn’t require to be complete, yet they are  beautiful ✨ and magical ✨🎩🔮 in their own way…
