कुछ तो बात थी उस मुलाक़ात में वरना,
रातों की नींदें यूँही उड़ा नहीं करतीं,
वे कुछ कहें न कहें, कहने की ज़रूरत ही कहाँ ?
अगर बात कहने पर आ जाती तो यह मोहब्बत ही क्या होती !
साथ गुज़ारा यह चन्द लम्हों का वक़्त
इस ज़िन्दगी के मायने बदलने के काबिल हो गया ।
अगर दिल की बात होठों तक भी आ जाती तो–
यह ज़िन्दगी हमसे आशना न रहती ।
Nehaan in Persian means ‘secret’ or ‘hidden.’ In Japanese, the same word means ‘nirvana.’ In these pages, I will make an attempt to explore, and if possible, partly or fully reveal what lies hidden from our view in our day-to-day lives. The path will be characterised by a certain lack of method which I think is characteristic of human intuition. I write and shall continue to write only when inspired to do so. This also means I might occasionally make forays into varied fields such as science, music, philosophy, language, linguistics and poetry, to name a few. I hope this would not put off new readers and tire the old ones! But who am I to complain–even the lovers of fine wine feel repulsed by the first drop and still, quite strangely, dizzy by the last.
Nehaan
