The Wall of India

!!The Wall Of India!!

It is about 12 km long. Some experts assume its length is up to a fort situated about 80 km away by road distance. At a certain length, its height is about 11 ft, and its width is about 7 ft at the top. Some archaeological experts decided its construction time was about 1100 years ago. The purpose of the wall is a mystery to all. But it seems it was built for military purposes. I think this is an incomplete, ambitious work of a king, as at a certain length it is well built, finished, organized with staircases to climb up and drainage to flow rainy water, but at a certain length simply hoards the stones. It started in my village. You can see it from the origin point on ‘Google Earth’ at 23°08´31.56´´N and 78°42´57.04´´E to the southwest direction only up to some length as obstructed by dense forest. We can assume its length is 80 km or more up to said fort, as the same type of wall is situated at two more places at a certain interval between my village and said fort.

My village name is Gorakhpur, which is situated in the Raisen district of Madhya Pradesh.  Bhopal is about 180 km from here in the west and about 135 km away from Jabalpur in the east. The nearest railway station is Gadarwara, about 50 km away by road distance in the south.

'You Start Dying Slowly' in Hindi

*नोबेल पुरस्कार विजेता स्पेनिश कवि पाब्लो नेरुदा की कविता  "You  Start  Dying  Slowly" का हिन्दी अनुवाद ...*_
_*1~ आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं, अगर आप :*_
    _- करते नहीं कोई यात्रा,_
    _- पढ़ते नहीं कोई किताब,_
    _- सुनते नहीं जीवन की ध्वनियाँ,_
    _- करते नहीं किसी की तारीफ़ ।_
_*2~ आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं, जब आप :*_
    _- मार डालते हैं अपना स्वाभिमान,_
    _- नहीं करने देते मदद अपनी और न ही करते हैं मदद दूसरों की ।_
_*3~ आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं, अगर आप :*_
    _- बन जाते हैं गुलाम अपनी आदतों के,_
    _- चलते हैं रोज़ उन्हीं रोज़ वाले रास्तों पे,_
    _- नहीं बदलते हैं अपना दैनिक नियम व्यवहार,_
    _- नहीं पहनते हैं अलग-अलग रंग, या_
    _- आप नहीं बात करते उनसे जो हैं अजनबी अनजान।_
_*4~ आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं, अगर आप :*_
    _- नहीं महसूस करना चाहते आवेगों को, और उनसे जुड़ी अशांत भावनाओं को, वे जिनसे नम होती हों आपकी आँखें, और करती हों तेज़ आपकी धड़कनों को।_
_*5~ आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं, अगर आप :*_
    _- नहीं बदल सकते हों अपनी ज़िन्दगी को, जब हों आप असंतुष्ट अपने काम और परिणाम से,_
    _- अग़र आप अनिश्चित के लिए नहीं छोड़ सकते हों निश्चित को,_
    _- अगर आप नहीं करते हों पीछा किसी स्वप्न का,_
    _- अगर आप नहीं देते हों इजाज़त खुद को, अपने जीवन में कम से कम एक बार, किसी समझदार सलाह से दूर भाग जाने की ।_

_*"तब आप धीरे-धीरे मरने लगते हैं !"*_

YOU START DYING SLOWLY

You start dying slowly
if you do not travel,
if you do not read,
if you do not listen to the sounds of life,
if you do not appreciate yourself.

You start dying slowly
When you kill your self-esteem;
When you do not let others help you.
You start dying slowly
If you become a slave of your habits,
Walking every day on the same paths…
If you do not change your routine,
If you do not wear different colors
Or you do not speak to those you don’t know.

You start dying slowly
If you avoid to feel passion
And their turbulent emotions;
Those which make your eyes glisten
And your heart beat fast.

You start dying slowly
If you do not change your life when you are not satisfied with your job,
or with your love,
If you do not risk what is safe for the uncertain,
If you do not go after a dream,
If you do not allow yourself,
At least once in your lifetime,
To run away from sensible advice.
