I feel that I am done now from the book review and moving to Movie review would be as exciting as book review.
Why I decided to jump from book to Movie review?
Well I completely feel moving to other side of Arts which is media is necessary for me because I am also great admirer of different messages,I learn from movies.
Can’t wait to explain more,so excited.
I would be reviewing “Parmanu” in my first post,as I recently watched,also noted very interesting points.
Yipeeeee!!!!!!
I wanted to make the most of this last post related to book review “Letters to Friend”.
“Jallinwala Bagh” incident mentioned in book convinced me to imagine how the sensitive poet must had gone through tough time of handling such a big cruelty on humanity.
Tagore restored his mental health after renunciation of his knighthood honour as a protest.His words
They hated and killed,and men praised them,But God in shame hastened to hide its memory under the green grass.
This short documentary on you tube will explain more about Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar now is one of famous Tourist place in detail:
The game of atrocity will colour the eyes red to watch its glory and the shining sun will not leave a single wound unnoticed.We tend not to forget the day,feel the intense dance of peace bell,allowing rising tension to accept the friendship of silence.
To walk together in harmony,to draft the dream of freedom,still so many songs are waiting to dance in rythmn with letters of blissfullness.
This small attempt to backtrack mind to feel the level of intensity has surely filled with pearls of emotions for which,I will always be grateful to such a Great Writer Shri Rabindranath Tagore.

Tagore’s close association with life’s consciousness seems to be pouring so much thoughts related to easiness/simplicity of life that we need to ponder upon.His clarity of thoughts draws picture in my mind that he is unlocking the gates of joys with full consideration which is beautifully explained starting from page number 78 till 80.
“I long to discover some fairy-land of holidays-not a world where all weekdays are Sundays-but where Sundays are not at all needed,where all duties look delightfully undutiful like clouds bearing rain,appearing perfectly in consequential.”

When I sit in the morning outside on the deck of my boat,before the majestic purple of the mountains crowned with the morning light,I know that I am eternal that I am ananda-rupam.
My true form is not that of flesh and blood,but of joy.In the world where we habitually live,the self is so predominant that everything in it is of our own making and we starve because we have to feed upon ourselves. To know the truth is to become true;there is no other way.When we live the life of self,it is not possible for us to realize truth.
“Come out,come away.” This is the urgent cry we have in our soul-the cry in the blood of the chick,living in its shell.
These lines are from the book “Letters to Friend” by Rabindranath Tagore from page no 71 when he was in Srinagar Kashmir(October 1915).I don’t have any words or story to take a dig ,just a prevailing silence and willing to share with the readers.

I am so glad that I took out some time from the daily routine and after a good walk settled myself in a local cafe to start writing down the notes from book “Letters to Friend”.Clearly it seems to be back in school days but this time all the questions of future has taken the back seat itself and to qualify as a seeker is the only way to match with the vibes of the book.
The two texts caught my attention straightway.
A Little background:These text from the holy books were gift from tagore to his friend when they both planned to go together to Fiji and carry an independent inquiry into indenture system of Indian Labour.
From Joy all things have origin: in Joy they subsists and unto Joy they return.I mediate upon His Glory,who creates the earth,the sky and the stars and sends into our minds the power of comprehension.

Thank you so much.
One thing is absolutely clear that this book had been written in very much free time,heavily garlanded with poetry that makes me very jealous of writer simply because I love to feel time.The sluggish pace of story revealed that fragility of bachelor’s club members in keeping the vow of celibacy life long.
The frequent poetry and in between all Rasik Dada(big brother) ,non member of club emerged as the carrier to move story making fun via taking advantage of his age factor,romantic sense and this all got supported by poetry & nature.Although I was feeling that it is getting bit stretchy,but turned this to make rounds of tea/coffee.I would do little more leaking of story, how two new characters admission to Kumar Sabha Nirmala & Abalakanta put pressure on other members via their devotion towards taken social cause task.
In the last 30 pages,story picked the pace welcomed by Aksh again with his all time round joking habit and no doubt rasik dada’s timely comedy interruptions played key role to open doors for all the characters(friends and family) come together under one roof to witness different emotional stage guilty,realisation,happiness.
The last line for Kumar Sabha members ” Don’t expect you will be spared later” gave the last dose of laughter.

Chirakumar Sabha: The Bachelor’s Club: A Comedy in Five Acts
This time, I am attaching a short video clip from Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai(old version),as there is no media clip related to it ,but this book reminds of this family comedy I used to watch a lot.
I am excited to start reading this book.A comedy fiction by Rabindranath Tagore.
Don’t know what to think or just absolutely rub my mind with black duster and sit as an audience in theatre,ready to ride on comedy vibes.
Yippee
