Few simple words about the works of my much cherished authors! So the critiques will be honest, short and sweet. Atit- Past by Labanya- Haunting, beautiful and sad, it will linger in my mind for a few days with a pang. Spiritual fragrance by Scott Hastie: priceless! It certainly is filled with spiritual fragrance, one of those poems that open that world for you. EVM machines and Indian election by saptarchi : It seems too many people don’t trust EVM machine, I don’t trust anything electronic blindly. In a corrupt country like India it was a bad idea, can be rectified and should be! Ballot papers should be brought back. Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 13: Angels scared of day-dreamers, oops! I am still one! The description of the angel

Spiritual fragrance by Scott Hastie: Beautiful poem about our journey on earth, and filled with fragrance of soul too! EVM machines and Indian election by saptarchi : I too believe that everything electronic can be manipulated. The world is infested with hackers, one or other must have discovered a way of hacking into this machines, or there is always the chance of collecting votes on one and then replacing them with a

Well, let us hope that things will get better after vaccination. Let us simply pray that things will get better and people won’t starve. Indie Author Speaks : Reading classics is a very good habit for bookworms and authors alike. FTQFS : Exactly girls should be good for their own sake. It is good for them too in this world full of deadly predators. Techbabble : Windows 10 is a nightmare! The last good windows version was windows 7. India Now: Indian Hypocrisy – Very harsh and very true, every society abuses women but only Indians do it under the disguise of nobility, duty, sacrifice etc. virtues. SOS : Absolutely true, if you have a muse, pamper i

Agnishatdal Book 14, Saraswatipuja 2021 Saptarchi Critique by SB

  Agnishatdal Book 14, Saraswatipuja 2021 Saptarchi ( https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu ) https://gumroad.com/sharmishthabasu Critique by SB Agnishatdal book 14, saraswatipuja 2021 https://gumroad.com/l/sphXv https://shoptly.com/i/bqqf Agnishatdal book 14 shares works of Saptarchi, Very thought-provoking set of essays, fully based on real India. Each and everyone makes you pause and think about the direction we Indians are taking India, especially after electing our Nazi rulers for second time! We can’t even say like Pakistani people that army grabbed the power. We elected these crooks twice, willingly!

Raja Rammohan Roy birthday.

   Today is the birthday of one of the greatest souls of India. His efforts to save Hindu women was beyond petty compliments! Respects straight from heart to a great human being!

Agnishatdal Book 14, Saraswatipuja 2021 Saptarchi Critique by Labanya

  Agnishatdal Book 14, Saraswatipuja 2021 Saptarchi ( https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu ) https://gumroad.com/sharmishthabasu Critique by Labanya Agnishatdal book 14, saraswatipuja 2021 https://gumroad.com/l/sphXv https://shoptly.com/i/bqqf Agnishatdal book 14 shares works of Saptarchi, it contains a really good set of essays about India, they are very contemporary and very honest and thought provoking. I personally very much agree with Saptarchi’s views in almost everyone of them.

Agnijaat Book 14, Saraswatipuja 2021 Critique by Labanya

  Agnijaat Book 14, Saraswatipuja 202 1 ( https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu ) https://gumroad.com/sharmishthabasu Critique by Labanya Agnijaat book 14, saraswatipuja 2021 https://gumroad.com/l/eNntp https://shoptly.com/i/bqq4 Agnijaat book 14 shared a set of photographs and a bunch of thought provoking essays about India and Indian things. All are different degrees of serious but honestly, Indians are so corrupt by nature that talking about their corruption and not becoming grave is almost impossible! So… I understand the grim tone! Lovely photos BTW! Will suggest one thing though, coloured pages look pretty but they make reading a bit tough, hope Agni will keep it in mind and go for simple black and white mode for reading.

Of drum-rolls and Indians by saptarchi : Women certainly have succeeded in making everyone believe that only men harm women!

Chaitra issue begins with another beautiful photograph from Golconda fort, the tribute this month has been paid to Queen Durgawati, she was quite a brave lady and great administrator. Surrender by Scott Hastie: Beautiful. Of drum-rolls and Indians by saptarchi : Very true words.

Really love his way of writing! His characters are so much fun! The faith mark by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: good one! Well, he certainly got a nice reward for being religious.
