Hi friends, let us begin!


Poush issue begins with tribute to Ramanuja, I have only heard his name, now I know a bit about him.


Of drum-rolls and Indians by saptarchi: Harsh, sincere truths.


Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 8: Another hilarious piece of an angel explaining human body as a lab rat’s features!


A secret revealed by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Well, with sons like them he should feel blessed not angry!


Gods of Terra by Troy David Loy: Background story on Gods of Terra, quite an interesting piece.


Heaven takes a trip… by Dom Collucci: beautiful poetry by a truly gifted poet.


Bitter Pill dose 38 by Bitter Pill: Secular India 5: Valid points again, Hindus should stop being thugs and Indian politicians should start treating them like equals with followers of other religions, neither superior nor inferior.


Energy by Brendan: Beautiful piece, a piece about a soul looking for soulmate.


The Tilbaroo station by Pat Ritters 5: Another cute installment of the life of newlyweds.


Treats:


Lovely greeting Sharmishtha!


5 lovely shots- these too are from Agni’s November photography loved them all.


This month Linkedin Requests shares few more requests worth checking out [by authors].


The proposition by Pat Ritter: Sounds like new type of story.


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


SBs’ book in amazon, The bridge of her dreams- sounds like an interesting read.


Star of the Month Kanan devi- She is another legend of old times, will check out her videos in YouTube. Have heard one or two already!


Star of West Whoopy Goldberg: Just love this actress.


Star of east Nanda- She was a priceless gem. So beautiful, sweet and elegant!


Youtubia-Vinod Dua- He is great!


Minutes Together: interesting story from mythology.


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


Kuvera- It was a cute story about a man getting jealous of Goddess Durga.


TnW- good suggestion!


Scaredy Stick- Good question!


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...
