ढाई आखर
Podcast

पोथी पढ़ि पढ़ि जग मुआ, पंडित भया न कोय
ढाई आखर प्रेम का, पढ़े सो पंडित होय।

One can study so much from a large volume of books or one can actually learn something from life-experiences.

“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming”, said Pablo Neruda once. Taking a cue from Kabir’s Dhai Aakhar or two and a half letters of life’s wisdom, we bring to you this Hindi Poetry podcast to recite and talk about the poetry of life, hope, beauty, courage, and motivation. Not all songs need to born from saddest thought. There is always a tomorrow to make up for yesterday. So, let there be poetry about what’s good in the world. In this podcast, we read poems on Ashavaad (Optimism), Shringar Ras (Beauty), Veer Ras, of clouds, of birdsongs, of morning dew drops, or just people around us. Do suggest your favorite poetry that we can read here. Welcome your thoughts and review :-)
