Love is also like this creeper. Love is not just the lust or desire inevitable at the young age. I do not consider desire as valueless, actually it supports the living all over. When this very desire is combined with feelings from the base of your heart then it takes the form of love and it becomes divine and resembles the nectar. The creeper then delivers compassion, blossoms into friendship. To understand the meaning of love we will have to become one with the world outside. We will have to break the tough selfishness. We will have to overcome the \"Me`. To understand the world outside we will need absolute involvement with it, then we will understand the diversity it has. The world is a combination of pleasant and dreadful nature, good and bad people, arts from literature to music and places of pilgrimages like the scientific inventions to nursing the patients suffering with leprocy. But if this love is selfcentered then...? If it starts worshipping only the soul within it then...? Such person becomes the enemy of others and of himself. The vine then bears poisonous flowers.

This collection includes his story \"Ghar Konache` which was not read much as was not published before. In the beginning, Khandekar used to write very detailed and lengthy stories resembling the chapters of novels. The language, the style, the social life, the emotional status will sound very sweet to our ears now after almost a centenary.

That is because of the lack of capacity to fertilize a seed. Seed is always fruitful. But the bearer may not be so... I am not an exception to this rule. Sometimes, when a person is sleeping soundly something pricks him intensely. Which awakens the sensations, get engulfed in imagination, feelings and thoughts and takes birth as a story. I have been witnessing this for the past 50 years. During the initial phase of a decade or two I was a slow learner I was trying to walk but was often stumbling. But I had a never ending stream of enthusiasm in me. After these 50 years, that stream is still there with me but the flow is now very weak.

From where do you get the ideas for writing? Are these ideas taken from all about you or do you create them? If you find them all around you, then how come we do not notice them? I would say that the ideas are all around us. Each idea has the immense potentiality of expressions. But all of them are not converted into any form of literature. Why does this happen? I as an author feel that it is because of the limitation an author has. Not every author has the capacity to metamorphase each and every idea into a beautiful butterfly. Sometimes, some idea invokes some inner strength and automatically the mind fills in with words, phrases, sentences. Some of it takes a form of literature, some of it just does not. I have been a writer since last 50 years. For halfacentury I have been sharing my ideas with you.

Nature has given strength to the former mind set, comparatively the second mind is rather weak. The secret of successful life lies at the centre. If both these minds are equal in strength then one can make life happy and if this happy life is developed properly then there lies the success.

The subjects for all the stories are those with whom we are very much familiar. The characters mentioned herein are seen all around us. The stories reflect the human attitude which is basically same. Sometimes, it is about a doctor who has given up his whole life for the well being of the patients. In return, what he gets is just hatred. His family is lost, killed, pulled away from him. He loses faith in humanity but at the end his good background and teachings bring him back to his normal self. Sometimes, a very good character is spoiled and an innocent mind turns into a killer, revealing the fact a part of every human mind is possessed by devil. One particular story reflects the true meaning of being a woman, motherhood, it gives a depth to living, a meaning to life. Other story reflects the failure of a respected member of the society. One story explains the true meaning of love; it is not a right, it is duty. What feelings can a fear cause in us? This is a very good story revealing the minds of young and old in contrast, bringing it to our notice that fear is the same for young and old. In his story; `Kavi, Shimpi and Rajkaran` he pictures the minute details of the mentalities of these three professions. `Aarse Mahal` brings out the naked truth that till the time we have a beautiful face and body we fail to recognize the inner beauty, only when the beauty leaves us then we think of god. The last but not the least, explains the meaning of true love and the importance of marriage and its value in Indian culture.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827102183742,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/76_b366d48e-31f0-422e-9f81-f07c37189c83.jpg?v=1680005681"},{"product_id":"hirva-chafa-by-v-s-khandekar-1","title":"Hirva Chafa By V.

The first threefour decades of the 20th century were seeing a new era. Indian culture was transforming dramatically. Communism, socialism, Gandhism were the philosophies responsible for this awakening. These philosophies also opened the doors to education for women. Overall, the society was undergoing a slow but steady change. This era gave access to women in each and every area. The restrictions on living were loosened. The traditions and moral philosophies were beginning to shatter. The distance between rich and poor widened immensly. Everyone could not accept these drastic changes. Some accepted gracefully and willingly, some accepted the changes in bits and pieces and some remained aloof not accepting a single new idea, praising their old virtues and values. This novel pictures all these changes. Mukund and Sulbha are the representatives of New generation. Mukund is full of revolutionary thoughts, Sulabha is incited only with her aim. Tatyasaheb symbolizes the old generation who believes in old is gold. Vijay is the odd man out displaying those who cannot accept the new concepts wholly and cannot reject the old concepts totally.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827105460542,"sku":null,"price":280.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Hirva-Chafa-FC_1_4c4e212a-75f3-4c3e-801d-37285ff9f10d.jpg?v=1680005707"},{"product_id":"hirval-by-v-s-khandekar-1","title":"Hirval By V.

It has two peculiar characteristics; wayward imagination and the strength to find the true meaning of simple topics. Weirdness and variety is also a part of short essays; sometimes it is in the presentation, sometimes it is in the imagination, sometimes in the feelings presented in it, and yet sometimes in the doctrines that it suggests. The soul of such writing is the inspired thoughts arisen from the contemplation of the human life with affinity. This type of writing is similar to tradition, majority, short stories in a way, they do not give more stress on creativity and limited selftalk. They show the wantonness of imagination, feelings, thoughts, the freeness of one`s wandering mind, in a sweet and freehand way, proving eminently proper to the name\"short essay`.

The real happiness lies in touching each other` Many such things are said while considering the relationship between a man and woman.

Many people do achieve this, but when one is beginning his\/her married life then this achievement is almost impossible.

The motivation for a metaphor is presentation of celestialness of true life, its virtues. It should be done elaborately, maintaining the rhythm. It should be beautified and ornated by peculiar words, and at the same time it should balance the thoughts and passions. Till today, I have penned down almost 40 metaphor. This collection has a few noteworthy metaphors among them. I am not saying that all these have been penned down very well or to the best of my ability. Many a times, the main idea is very attractive and easy but penning it down seems to be very difficult. It is like creating an ivory miniature of Tajmahal.

They linger into our minds for a long period of time. They make us very introspective. These stories reflect not only Khandekar`s artistic developmental approach but also reflect his deep pondering over life. These stories picture the characters that are now quite old.They have accepted the duality of their present lives unwillingly, but the memories of their sweet past lives linger in their minds. In a way, these stories are the light house for the future generation, burning with the oil of experience and memories of the older generation. These stories try to teach us that `Grihasta Dharma` which is the third stage of life is actually rebirth.Nobody ever remembers past life. Before marriage, our lives are carefree like that of butterflies, marriage changes us into birds, building nestles for the young ones, caring for them.

S. Khandekar. The 1st was ‘Suvarnakan` Gibran`s writing is the resultant product of lots of thinking that of a poet, a critic and philosopher. This combination not only makes his literature readable but also gives it a depth, a suspense. Khandekar introduced a new way of introducing the stories by Gibran. The analysis of Gibrans stories helps to find the true meaning behind its suspense, it helps to reveal the beauty of the theme concealed behind the meaning. Gibrans stories appear to be a darkened cave initially, but when allowed to touch them, read them, understand them, they are the most enlightened ones. These meteors are very short, yet they reveal different aspects of life very strongly. They represent a soul which has one ultimate aim. They are aware of the ups and downs of life.

Short essay is a form of creative literature. It came into practice around 1930. This book represents a graph of the progress made by this type of literature. Generally speaking, a short essay is a mixture of poetry, humour and philosophy. Each short essay is the manifestation of an author`s imagination. When he produces them they appear in a blended form. It becomes difficult to differentiate each form of literature. All the essays reflect these qualities. Yet, this collection itself has two parallel styles. One tends to be more technical and one is more emotional. The emotional form reflects the unrestricted journey of imagination and thoughts. It also presents the darker shades of gravity.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827361804606,"sku":null,"price":180.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Vasantika-FC_2ca1130e-b60d-436b-88a7-e893c33988c6.jpg?v=1680007577"},{"product_id":"vandevata-by-v-s-khandekar","title":"Vandevata By V.

It is yet another addition to books like ‘Kalika`, Mrigjalatil Kalya and Soneri Savalya. Meteor is a very tremulous form of prose. The main aspiration of the meteor is to create the atmosphere with the help of very few words, to beautifully the creation with perfect but magical words and to mix thoughts and fellings into it perfectly, thus introducing life with its precious values. Meteor resembles covert insinuation. It has tremendous inner power. It is reflected perfectly well in covert but faultless presentation. Meteor unreveals the selfishness by unmasking the world and society as well, making it appear as a philosophical dose.

One might think that Gibran follows Eosep`s style of writing, when one reads stories like Kolha, Shahana Kutra and Teen Mungya. Actually Gibran has acquired the skill to show the irrelevancy in a man`s nature by clothing the animals and birds in a humanly way. Every meteorist does acquire this skill to a certain extent. Gibran has a wide vision for life, which is his peculiar characteristic feature. His stories show the good and bad sides very tenderly. But that is not the secret of his success. His meteors have the ability to conquer the highest peaks effortlessly. He very easily \u0026amp; simply distinguishes the conflict between personal life and social life. He realises that true happiness and well being is possible only if every single person and the society together accept the new values and virutes. He tries to present these new values and virtues through his meteors. He realises that man is not for philosophy but philosophy is for man.

When the author went through them before publishing he was astonished with them. His mindseet was very much different than that earlier. He wanted to alter the stories, but stopped himself from doing so. He had a strange mixture of feelings. He felt that those were his story but yet he didn`t know them. He realised that time changes a person inside-outside. At moments, he thought that the author of the stories. i.e. he himself then was a different person from what he was now. His mindset had changed completely. He felt a pity as he could not X-rayed his mind then and now. His style during his early years as a story writer was similar to Ram Ganesh Gadkari. At some places, his stories exagerrate a lot. Still the author did not make any changes in his stories after 10 years, because he believed that after a long time the changes that take place inside one`s mind will harm the core of the story and he also realised that for an author also it will be difficult to experience the same feeling which prevailed his mind while originally writing the story. That illusion which creates a story is not a slave. So correcting or changing the story to make it better might damage it actually.

It is a union of three beautiful feelings. The first is our own happiness and progress. The second felling is towards our family, the obligations, the indebtness. One has to try to repay it to the best of his\/her ability. The third is the unseen flow, to help the society progress, the society of which we are members. Ones life can be said fulfilled only when the indebtedness of ourselves, that of the family and of the society is satisfied at the same time. If there is no conflict between these three then we can say that the person is successful in his life. V. S. Khandekar`s book reveals these secrets of human life in his novel. There are many characters in this novel Of them, Anand believes only in sacrifice, the traditional belief; Appa and Bhayya are those incompetent people who shade off their responsiblities and justify themselves by making a single person shoulder it. Manik is hopeless, literate girl but has always failed in recognising a good mind, Usha is yet another character who has been aloof, never expressing feelings, good or bad. What are these characters eilling us? They tell us that following the customs and traditions blindlessly is harmful not only to the person following them but also to the society at large. It was in 1939 that the author stated his views as follows, \"when we talk about the values in a man`s life then sacrifice is alway highly regarded than enduring. But the sacrifice should always be for a noble cause.` Do not you think that this view is true even today?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827315372350,"sku":null,"price":240.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Sukhacha-Shodh-FC_763f47a4-6817-49d8-89ea-e26b74bc06a6.jpg?v=1680007115"},{"product_id":"stree-ani-purush-by-v-s-khandekar","title":"Stree Ani Purush By V.

I often feel that \"this is how one should live life.` But then immediately my second mind snaps at me, saying, \"people like you from the previous generation were living life in a dream world, beautiful in its own way. You believed that all the changes would take place on their own, without any struggle, without any efforts. But the fact is we cannot expect life to follow the calculative mathematical rules. The cultural values of this era have changed tremendously. You mentioned the cultural values. You were raised with the values suitable to the family life with its agricultural background. But today`s generation is different. They are living in a mechanical background. In the yester years, people were scared of god, religion. They followed the artificial rules not sacredly but with a fear in their mind. This young generation today is not scared of any such thing. Hence they do not care for it. Because the end of man is crystal clear. Whatever, we do or however we live, what is going to remain behind us is just a pinch of ash. So, everyone aims at snatching, grabbing as much happiness as possible. They have no other aim in their life.

Upon seeing this, the partner of the bird gave out a loud out cry. It started wailing in grief. So loud and true was the sorrow that Saint Valmiki was touched by the it. The pain he experienced started flowing out in the form of \"shlokas`. A true poetry takes birth in exactly the same manner. V. S. Khandekar has written this novel based on the shlokas so formed. Even today the innocent couples of herons are killed every now and then, These innocent couples represent the innocent people all over the world. The hunter which killed one of the bird was sinful, very very sinful, But so are today`s political leader. They all are equally cruel, wicked.

S. Khandekar`s meteors. The harmonious weaving of nature and human life is the characteristic feature of a meteor. These meteors will overpower the readers with their technique and understanding. They will engulf the readers in their artistic thoughts. Every single word in this meteor mirrors the universal holy gathering. They all have the capacity to touch the horizons of human auspiciousness. Each possesses thousand impulses. Each is willing to touch the human morals. Every single meteor evokes the ardour to live, every single meteor explains the living of a human being and every meteor is itself a\"mahamantra` to multiply the anxiety for living life.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827189641534,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Kshitijsparsh-FC.jpg?v=1680006059"},{"product_id":"madhyaratra-by-v-s-khandekar","title":"Madhyaratra By V.

The stories have the same revoking power for the older minds too. Parents, teachers, elders all around are responsible for the implementation of rites and rituals on the tender minds. Even reading is responsible for the same. Through all this each child graspss. Something understands something and accepts something’s. Each worships ideals. Each accepts some moral values. But what if the young mind comes across such situation where it witnesses the other side? When it sees the elders behaving exactly opposite? Then the images of the ideals shatters in their tender minds. Their universe starts shaking. They get confused. Is every good thing a lie? A hypocracy? Then, what is the truth? At such moments, many a times they come across light, they find a ray of hope penetrating through the hig walls of this hypocracy. Somebody comes forward and hold their tender fingers, shows them the true way to good... V. S. Khandekar`s stories have the same impact on the young minds. They show way to these bewildered minds, they help to balance the confused minds, through stories or through meteors. Sometimes appearing casual, sometimes jokingly sometimes childishly....\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827202257214,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Madhyaratra-FC.jpg?v=1680006126"},{"product_id":"mandakini-by-v-s-khandekar","title":"Mandakini By V.

It hampers our intellect but fails to touch the heart. On the other hand, the little incidences of happiness in our life please us a lot. They help to make our life better in many aspects. At least, that is what I think. Just imagine that one of your best friends is very ill and you are unable to seek a famous doctor from a big Metropolitan city. But then the single rose you carry with you when you visit your friend gives him immense happiness. He might not be a poet, might not be a reader, yet, the flower will surely bring a smile on his pained face. The flower would surely reveal the message that the only truth lies in ‘this very moment’.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane active\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane active\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabbable bookdetailtabber\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane active\" id=\"pane2\"\u003eकीर्ती, संपत्ती, संस्कृती, इत्यादिकांच्या मागे धावून मिळणारी सुखे ही गाण्यातल्या लांबलचक तानांसारखी असतात. ती बुद्धीला झुलवितात, पण हृदयाला हलवू शकत नाहीत. उलट दररोजच्या साध्यासुध्या आयुष्यक्रमातील इवलीइवली सुखे ही गायनातल्या लहान लहान मुरक्यांप्रमाणे वाटतात. त्यांच्यामुळेच जीवनसंगीताला अवीट गोडी प्राप्त होते, असे मला तरी वाटते. आपला एखादा मित्र आजारी असला, तर त्याच्याकरता आपण काही मुंबईहून विमानाने बडे बडे डॉक्टर आणू शकत नाही; पण त्याला भेटायला जाताना एखादे टपोरे गुलाबाचे फूल घेऊन जाणे तरी आपल्या स्वाधीन आहे की नाही? आपला मित्र कवी नसला किंवा कुठल्याही वस्तूवर एखादे प्रतीक लादून गूढगुंजन करणाNया कादंबऱ्यांचा त्याला कंटाळा येत असला, तरीही त्या गुलाबाच्या फुलाकडे पाहून त्याच्या मुद्रेवर स्मितरेषा चमकल्याशिवाय राहणार नाही. जणूकाही ते फूल त्याला मूकसंदेश देत असते – हास, जरा हास. काल आणि उद्या हे भास आहेत. जगात सत्य एकच आहे. आज – हा दिवस – ही घटका – हा क्षण!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"reviews-section\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Rasik Sahitya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44827215888702,"sku":null,"price":95.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/4936\/8382\/products\/Mandakini-FC.jpg?v=1680006198"},{"product_id":"manjdhar-by-v-s-khandekar","title":"Manjdhar By V.
