सोचा था हमने कि दिल यह अब
इश्क़ करने के क़ाबिल न रहा ।
बहार-ए-ज़िन्दगी गुज़र गई कब की,
और अब ख़िज़ा का आलम शुरू हुआ ।
पर आजकल जुनून-ए-इश्क़ में
यूँ मदहोश रहने लगा है दिल कि
हमको भी पता चल ही गया कि
क्यों कहा करते थे हमें पीर-ओ-मुर्शिद…
कि ख़ुदा के बंदों के हाथों में
जीना, मरना और इश्क़ करना कब था ?
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
