My Experiments With Truth

Book is great for it gives unobstructed peek into Gandhiji's life. Public interaction of leader in the making is interesting. Mahadev Desai has translated it lucidly.

Rhythm in lyrics

This pertains to thoes hindi movie songs which are rhymed with below words repeatedly over the years and are accentuated to add to decibels.

Sanam, Kasam, janam, gam, kadam, mousam,

neela asama, kali ankhe, gora badan, rangin najare

Hum, tum, dhadkan,

Ek pal, Do pal, Har Pal, Kal,

Paagal, baadal,

Jindagi, chand

duniya, kaliya

Ikrar, bekarar, aitbar, karar, intejar, pyar, yaar, bahar,

yunhi, tuhi,

kho gaye, so gaye, aa gaye,

deewana, aawara, din, raat, shaym, savere,

baaho me , raho me, aanho me, dil me, man me,


what a din! Din because these words keep reverberating in mind like some names we remember by virtue of their rhythm even though we never had seen these persons before hearing their names many times ( Giancarlo fisichela, Buddhadev Bhattacharya, Osho, Robin Hood).
