About Me

My photo
Hi, this is somebody who has taken the quieter by-lane to be happy. The hustle and bustle of the big, booming main street was too intimidating. Passing through the quieter by-lane I intend to reach a solitary path, laid out just for me, to reach my destiny, to be happy primarily, and enjoy the fruits of being happy. (www.sandeepdahiya.com)

From a hill girl's dressing table

In any case they are rosily fair, the mountain women. But then it's Humanoids' misery for more and more, the relentless driving force. While there are wild hibiscus, not flowering though at this time, here lies the memento, carrying some hill lass's aspiration to shine even more...



A message

On the wayside thistles on a stony footpath scented with karipatta leaves, a tiny signboard harks attention! Solitary journeyman, take up the message and spread it for the common good! Feel the gratitude, here the agent of death Himself is putting up a warning! Can there be a clearer message?

PS: Mother nature has put the Hindi version upface. I take the liberty of turning it over and expose the Eeengleesh one also for the benefit of the so called more educated. Taking the message seriously can be a nice start to a new year!




Timeless peace

Well, not sunny actually! But I see the freshness and verve of the new rays of a new day! Hope and its bright Angels are lurking from behind the greyish veil. Behind the screen there is the sun of love, life and living. The yesterday's wind howled itself to death. Again verifying that peace and calmness are the norms, not storms!





Happy new year - 2025

Wish you all a very happy new year from the land of Krishna...Govardhan greetings for the new year dear friends...let it be a joyful year for you all. Radhe Radhe! Jai Giriraj Govardhan! Hare Rama Hare Krishna!

Year end blessings

The last rays of the last sunset of 2019 in this solitary bowl of peace! A windlashed day when mountain wind seems to play flute through the cheer pines. A yellow billed blue magpie, a beautiful long tailed bird, chirps a song of farewell, as it flies into the feeble gold mist clinging to the last rays of the day. An end is just a new beginning! Wishing you all a warm, bright sunrise of a new day, a new year, a new beginning! Happy New Year Guys!!



Bid a forgiving bye to the last strands of grey on the last dusk of 2020, and open your eyes to a multi-hued, vibrant, happy and prosperous first dawn of 2021! Wishing everyone a very happy new year!





As Ruskin Bond says: 
"All this is pure nostalgia, of course, but why be ashamed of it?  Nostalgia is simply an attempt to try and preserve that which was good in the past...The past has served us: why not serve the past in this way."

Well, say a gentle bye to 2021. Even this must have something to smile about for you. A healthy nostalgia augurs well for the future. Wishing everyone a fulfilling and joyful 2022. Remember the good, forgive the wrong and take up the next step with a smile.


Blessings by Maa Ganga on the last day of 2023 for all you friends out there! Wish you all a very happy and joyful new year in advance!
