Hi friends, let us begin!

The ezine begins with a tribute to Bal Gangadhar Tilak, I of course have heard his name again and again but knew very little about him, glad to know a bit more!

Farce in the name of justice by saptarchi: These days speaking truth openly is like putting your hand in a pit filled with rattle snakes. You may or may not get bit! Good and effective way of crushing wannabe whistle-blowers!

Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 2: Mr. Onraet is a great storyteller, well, we are inside the laboratory and it sounds like Genesis, angels are creating human-kind! Let us see if I am right or not!

When Gold went on a trip by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: A new story has started! Something hints that the poor fellow they nicked was very much alive! Great story till now Mr. Kuppuswamy!

Fractal dawn by Troy David Loy: Great piece, sounds like Meera is the future empress of Troy’s universe. A benevolent, strong and brave being! Let’s see….

Relativity not reality… by Dom Collucci: Great words of wisdom Mr. Collucci. Very interesting and thought-provoking.

Bitter Pill dose 31 by Bitter Pill: politics 6: I too quite seriously wonder if Indian politicians actually get votes or just tamper the EVMs, like they manipulated the ballot boxes in past.

Crows 1 by Brendan: Fascinating piece on crows. Their spiritual and animal significance punched together.

The shearer by Pat Ritters 4: Great writing Mr. Ritter, quite an interesting look into the life that has passed long time ago.

Treats:

five lovely shots- from Agni’s March photography.

In the treats section there is quite a tempting invitation for authors who can afford.

Closing the gap by Pat Ritter: this book is written with noble intentions in mind, Mr. Ritter tries helping parents to understand their teenagers better, to close the generation gap. God bless you Mr. Ritter.

Pikatron by Troy David Loy sounds like a great reading material with fractals as added beauty!

SBs’ book in amazon, The lotus of fire – a collection of poetry, sounds good! Will be checking on them, maybe grab a copy and critique them too!

Sharan Rani- I think I have heard her name but never heard her playing, will try out in YouTube.

Fear Itself: Watched quite a few episodes they are really great!

Bharat Bhushan- he was really handsome, and had an aura of purity in his face, that is what I love most about him.

Youtubia-Nameless Will check out! Thanks for adding a bit about the story. You forgot to change the title though, I was surprised a bit but then thankfully the name was right at the beginning of the post.

Minutes Together: this month’s story “You drank my poison” was Karma dishing out the right dish to the right recipient I guess.

Loved the Bengali poem and the hindi poem both. Thank you for adding my work in your ezine Agni.

Kandu and Pramlocha- The story of a truly wise sage, even though he was wronged he did not curse the woman who was appointed by Indra to harm him.

TnW- Dreams- dreams certainly are quite a mystery!

Scaredy Stick- True again Mr. Stick, your fears are quite valid.

The sketches all through the ezine were pretty! Very colourful and lovely.

That is it I guess! See you again next month, and thank you Agni/Sharmishtha for translating my works!

Yours sincerely,
Labanya

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique by Troy David Loy

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique: Agnishatdal Poush 1426, December 2019 https://gumroad.com/l/umPGr https://shoptly.com/i/mon by Troy David Loy https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy iravu vanakkam. naandaan Troy. Welcome to the Poush 1426 review of Agnishatdal! Here are a few of the outstanding features for this issue… First there’s… … Let us Begin… Our Virtual Trip to India This painting shows a young woman leaning, her back to a tree, while a small fishing boat travels past on the river in the background. Bharatendu Harishchandra So, here is one whose linguistic influence was deep and far-reaching. I must look for any published works of his that remain in print, and I suspect that these are more than a few sources I can look on. Rupjibi and Kalambiji Saptarchi criticizes the intellectual failures of modern Indian movies made for money, not the writer’s craft. Masai 1 of 4 Brieuc begins this series on the Masai people...

Scott Hastie, new face in Agnishatdal!

  Scott Hastie is a full-time Scottish born writer, based in the UK - he lives and works in tranquil surroundings in the English countryside, some twenty miles north of London. Primarily a poet, Scott also has had one novel - 'Reunion' published, as well as several lavishly illustrated local history books. Ten of his books remain in print today - principally his two early signature volumes of poetry: 'Selected Poetry' & 'New Poetry', first published in the 1990's - together with showcases for newer equally distinctive work, such as the beautiful and soulful 'Meditations' first published in the Autumn of 2013. Scott's current poetry is very much a positive and sparkling affirmation of human potential, with a growing emphasis on spiritual awareness. Given the impact of this more recent output and its fast growing cross-cultural popularity around the world, a much more definitive and comprehensive hardback collection of al...

Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 critique by SB

  Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 https://gumroad.com/l/Agbdb https://shoptly.com/i/buji By your good old editor! Few words about the works of my much cherished authors. So the critiques will be honest, short and sweet! Kalipuja by Labanya: What a beauty. It captured the purity and beauty of Kalipuja perfectly. Will Bengal shine again by saptarchi : This question haunts all Bengalis that love their culture! Things have improved a bit under TMC but with saffron brigade’s eyes glued on Bengal the hearts are fluttering! If they ever come to power that will be the darkest day for Bengal. Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 7: Another piece of hilarious conversation between those who have created human beings and their boss. I wonder how human beings would have looked if they had feathers! Faithmark by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Quite an interesting story, well, instant reward for listening to a holy man. Hope he won’t become greedy and ruin the bless...
