A POEM




Yes, my vagina smells,
Yes, my breasts hang,
Yes, I have mood swings,
Yes, sometimes my insecurities override my senses,
Yes, I deserve to be loved and
Yes, I will cry to you and tell you that I don’t deserve love.
But yes, when you put your arms around me it is an assurance in my mind.
No I am not being weak or your maid,
It is just my juice to gather myself and fight,
When I say I need you I never lied.
I still may think I am useless and still get insecure,
But please, pretty please,
Put your arms around me once a while and let me cry.

He has always seen desperation and loneliness in his...

Does Visva-Bharati needs to go back to the roots?

Tagore, the founder of Visva-Bharati and creator of Rural Reconstruction vision was to put stress on creativity and discovering own perspective to be driven in intellectual and mundane affairs. He was not keen on the Western way of looking at things of our country and wanted to find out Indian perspective through education and experimentation not bound in alien idioms. This attitude was also maintained by him when it came to uplifting the rural population in and around Santiniketan. Self-sustenance and self-reliance are central in his thoughts. Tagore always nurtured the idea that members of a community need to help each other to sustain and improve life. His founding of Sriniketan experiment in 1921-22 in the Surul and making surrounding villages prosper through cooperation based on own strength in skill, culture and social bonding with Rur...
