Coffee

                                                                              


Life Hain Coffee Ke Jaise

Thori Si Karwi Aur Thori Si Mithie Vi
Dhuan Utha Hain Iss Ki Kali Gaheri Badan Se
Lekin Bahut Hi Garam Joshi Se Khusbu Faaila Ti Hain


Meri Har Raat Mein Jab Main
Tanhai Se Lipat  Jati Hoon
Toh Ek Peyala Coffee Ke Zaika
Meri Zaban Ko Chu Jati Hain
Aur Woh Kali Kali Asman Mein
Jo Sitare Khamoshi Se Muskurati Hain
Tab Lagta Hain Ke Yeh Raat Vi Shayed
Coffee Ke Jaise Kisi Karwi Ghut Pee Rahin Hain
Lekin Khudah Ne Apni Hatheli Se Ek Chammach
Mithi Sitare Uss Ki Badan Mein Ghol Diya Hain
Aur Woh Chand Apni Safed Plate Pe 
Sari Dard Raat ki Samet Liya Hain


Coffee Mujhe Susti Se Jagati Hain
Aur Meri Bookshelf Ke Samne Para Ek Guiter
Jo Kafi Dino Se Bina Dhun Ki Sangat Ke
Tanha Khara Hain Ek Khamosh Buut Ke Jaise
Achanak Meri Haathon Ke Chhuan Se Jag Uthta Hain
Main Usse Apni Bahon Mein Var Leti Hoon
Aur Jo Kuch Na Kahe Sakti Hoon Main 
Labzon Ke Zariye Woh Main Saaz
Chher Ke Bayan Karti Hoon


Coffee Kali Hain Na Iss Mein Rangat Ki Lali Hain
Lekin Na Jane Kya Assar Kar Deti Hain Dimag Mein
Ke Sangeet Apni Laharon Se Meri Duniya Abad Karti Hain
Main Hoon Sari Rasmon Se Bandha
Lekin Meri Khushi Ko
Woh Gum Se Azad Karti Hain
Coffee Bahar Se Hain Shaant Shushil
Ek Lamha Jaise Thehere Hue Kali Talab Ke Jaise
Lekin Jab Zaban Se Hoke Charhti Hain Dimag Mein
Meri Nas Nas Dil Ki Har Ek Tar Usski Tufan Se
Bahe Jati Hain Aur Dabi Si Shor Se Kahe Jati Hain
Tum Zindah Ho Tum Zindah Ho Tum Zindah Ho


Coffee Kali Hain, Ek Raas Bhari Piyali Hain
Cup Se Khatam Ho Jaye To Khali Hain
Lekin Jism Se Jab Woh Guzrein Toh Ek Dilwali Hain
Coffee Kali Hain Lekin Ek Matwali 
Aur Bahut Manchali Hain
Coffee Tu Nirali Hain Coffee Tu Ek Paheli Hain
Kuch Vi Hain Tu Lekin Meri Ek Anokhi Saheli Hain

                                          A LOVING TRIBUTE TO COFFEE !!!! :D

                                                                               

Dynamic Dokra

                                                                                  
The ancient Indian art forms are integrally weaved into the local lifestyle of people making the art iconic for the region. The older the art more unique and raw is the style, method and the design making it esteemed and looked upon. The exquisite Dhokra or bell metal craft in Chattisgarh, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal is an essential part of the life of tribals and their life is incomplete without the art; its products are used right from birth to death for all the rituals, events and social occasions which are celebrated with the Dhokra products, mainly idols. The actual establishment of this craft lies in the practices of the people and religious beliefs.

When you pick up each Dokra product it takes you the sacred lands and gives a realization how sacred our country is with rich tradition, culture and art. The Indian art and craft industry supports numerous artisans where three million of them are metal artisans being the majority amongst rest working under other sections. Bell metal craft provides employment to many villagers across India. Since metal artisans / blacksmiths are in a larger number they play a vital role in protecting and encouraging the art till date. The most important is that the children of these artisans also learn the art at an early age with their parental guidance and take ahead the art for generations.

Places of practice

• The main clusters of Bastar in Chattisgarh for Dhokra art are Kondagaon and Jagdalpur regions. Besides these, Barkai, Ektaguda, Sirmud, Karanpur and Nangur are also some of the places where this art is practiced. Most of the figures made in Bastar are blunt and plain compared to products made in other states.
•  Places like Ushegaon and Chittabori in Adilabad district of Andhra Pradesh are chief centers of Dokra.  Figures such as drummers, horses, decoration accessories, tribal deities are created with great artistry with Dokra art as well as brass artwork.
• Dokra art is practiced in Puri, Ganjam, Keonjhar, Dhenkanal, Sambalpur, Phulbani, Nayagarh, Mayurbhanj and Khurda in Orissa. On the other hand a community known as Kansari of Orissa is skilled at making good Dhokra cook ware. In addition to this, Orissa is known for detailed versions of the metal craft.
• In West Bengal it is practiced in districts of Purulia, Burdwan, Bankura and Midnapore. The craftsmen of West Bengal are called Dokra Kamaras and are considered as social outcasts.
• As Bastar is surrounded by Maharashtra state, Dokhra art is also spread here to some extent and products are available in the nearby regions. It’s also become a specialty of semi-tribals communities in living at the mountain ranges of Vindhya.

Dhokra Art History and Tradition 

Dhokra is the oldest form of metal casting which is prevailing in India over 4000 years. This art is considered very important and popular because of its wide usage, cultural connectivity, originality and folk character. Till date the primitive techniques are being used in the making which is the lost or vanishing wax casting method. The earliest Dhokra artifact known and found is the dancing girl at Mohenjodaro and Harappa civilization which specifies dominance and continuity of the art.

Origin of the artisans

The community involved in Dhokra art is called Ghadwas which are groups of artisans who supplied utensils made out of brass and other metals to the villages for their daily use. They claim that their ancestors were tribals and had migrated from Maharashtra and got settled in Bastar many centuries ago. There are many tales told about the origin of Ghadwa groups, one of the maximum heard one is- About 3000 years ago there was a ruler of Bastar who was gifted with a Dhokra art necklace for his beloved wife. Looking at the beauty of the craft he honored the craftsmen as “Ghadwa”. The name Ghadwa has been derived from the word Ghalna meaning melting and working with wax. It’s also derived from the word Ghadna which means to make, it also means act of shaping and creating. Besides these names, these artisans are also called as in vishwakarmas, ghasias, mangan and khaser some of the regions.

Artifacts and designs of Dhokra Art

• Domestic Items: Utility products made are normally containers like bowls and glasses to measure rice or grains. But the purchase of Dhokra domestic utensils have gone low in the past few years.
• Religious Artifacts: The major motifs and themes include structures which are worshipped like the sun, moon, mountains, fields, forests and flora-fauna. Traditionally idols of local deities, Gondidevi Matamurti, etc. were made. But nowadays we will find idols of Lord Ganesha, Goddess Durga, elephant, horse and nandi bull made as decorative pieces and for worship too. Some items for example kalash which is a ritual pot is requested and purchased as offering.
• Dhokra Jewellery: In the section of Dokra jewelry plethora of forms are crafted into beautiful and artistic jewellery which have the typical ancient motifs and themes, such as large hole beads made from dokra art put together to make necklaces marks a proper piece of tribal jewellery. But, now-a-days we will find some ornaments with a fusion of contemporary art and ethnicity. To illustrate, glass beads, stone or plastic beads are used in necklaces and are connected with pendant made from Dhokra art. Similar method is followed for earrings and other trinkets with floral designs. In addition, there is a high demand for jewelry making which includes anklets, anklet bells (ghungrus), nose rings, toe-rings, etc.
• Contemporary Products: Accessories like bells, door handles, vases, incense stick holders, lamps, water jugs, and key holders are also a part of this admirable art. Decorative items include candle stands, pen stands, ash trays, mobile holders, etc. are often made as modifications to get adjusted with the present demand and needs of customers. Dhokra handicrafts also comprises of ornamental animals, tribal figures and so on.

Current Scenario of Dhokra Art and the artisans of Bastar

Presently about 600 artisans are working in Bastar on Dhokra Art. Among these very few have engaged them with Self Help Groups (SHG`s) and are actively working. While on the other hand most of the artisans are not available when required and don’t desire to continue. This could be possible because of the tedious work one has to put in or relatively low wages offered. But due to the high demand for the Dhokra products there is work readily available all the time. Hence, many people have shifted from daily wage jobs and involved themselves in Dhokra Art. Government has started many training programmes to induce and encourage new artisans. Besides, some organizations offer aid and assistance to the existing artisans in the art along with modification and timely updates.
One of these organizations is Saathi Samaj Sewa Sansthan which is in Kondagaon. This not only promotes and markets Dhokra Art but other traditional arts and crafts of Bastar. This organization also provides livelihood to all the artisans in the region along with health and education facilities. The members of Saathi Samaj Sewa Sansthan have till date helped in regards to marketing, technical and provided financial support to about 40 SHG`s in the region who are engaged in Dhokra Art. All Dhokra Art products are also marketed through this organization in exhibitions across the country.

Constraints of Dhokra Art

Dhokra Art to an extent is facing issues with raw material availability as the scrap metal has to be purchased from the market is getting expensive. Also the making requires wood and bees wax which is again not easy to acquire due to the depletion of forest resources. Thought there are many artisans working on Dhokra Art, there is a constant risk and fear of the working hazards.
Villcart is proud to be associated with Saathi Samaj Sewa Sansthan and procures all Dhokra Art products form them. Hence, when you buy each product you support the artisans with livelihood and help the organization develop in a sustainable way.
The originality, form and its raw beauty makes the art desirable all over India and abroad as well giving the artisans a paramount position in the art domain and their due reverence.

Ishq Hum Dono Ko Jalaye

Ishq Hum Dono Ko Bujhaye

Yeh Ishq Hain Woh Jannat Ka Badhshah 

Jo Hum Insano Ko Kavi Kismat-e- Amir 

Toh Kavi Gubar-e-Fakir Banaye

Hum Dono Larte Hain

Lekin Dono Hi Aah Varte Hain

Ek Pal Hasste Hain

Toh Duji Pal Rote Hain

Tum Na Jhuko Mere Samne

Main Na Jhukau Sar Tumhare Aagey

Lekin Such Toh Yehi Hain Aye Mere Sanam

Iss Ishq Ki Aagey Hum Dono Hi Hain Sar Jhukaye

Ishq Ki Raah Ko Khudah Ne Ashqon Se Nawazah 

Dard Aur Ghum Ki Kaaton Se Sajaye

Kaise Karoge Hassil Ulfat-e-Gul Ko

Bina Surkh-e-Dil Ki Lahu Ke Dariyah Mein Nahaye 

Karo Varosa Mujhpe Sanam

Bass Itna Hi Tumse Hain Iltezah

Phir Dekho Khudah Vi Hamari

Mohabbat Pe Karega Naz

Chahe Woh Kitna Vi Zulum O Sitam Uthale 

Yeh Kharoche Yeh Jalan Yeh Dard

Ishq Ki Diye Har Pal Ki Imtehaan Hain

Hum Marte Hain Dum Torte Hain 

Pyar Mein Sau Dafah

Hamari Kurbani Se Ishq Hoti Jawan Hain

Yeh Daulat Ki Lalach Nehi

Yeh Shaurat Ki Chahat Nehi

Yeh Jung Hain Ishq Ke Azmaish Ki

Hum Parwano Ki Jalte Badan Ki Shaan Se

Chirag-e-Ishq Ki Diya Hoti Roushan Hain

Yeh Ishq Hain Parbat Ke Jaise 

Bahar Se Hain Bahut Shaqt Aur Dukhat Vi

Lekin Jab Jhaanko Gaherayi Se Iss Ke Dil Ke Andar

Toh Ek Baheta Dariya Khamoshi Se Guzar Te Hue Pao Ge

Na Daro Jung-e-Ulfat Se 

Yeh Sadiyon Se Chalte Hue Ek Rasam Hain 

Main Hoon Saath Tumhare Hamesha

Meri Jaan Mujhe Uss Rab Ki Kasam Hain

Agar Ishq Jalaye Toh Jalne Do

Rut-e-Rangat Ki Mausam Ko Laakhon Bar Badal Ne Do

Main Tumhari Hoon Aur Tum Ho Meri

Iss Saach Ko Khudah Ke Jaise Hamesha Kaiyem Rahene Do

  
M-e-Z :)

Proclaimed the greatest player of all time by TENNIS magazine on its September 2009 cover, Roger Federer claimed the all-time record for Grand Slam singles titles by winning Wimbledon, his 15th major victory, in 2009.

Ghar

                                                                                  

Bahut Dino Se Bandh Para Hai Yeh Ghar Mera

Kavi Koi Chabi Toh Haath Lage Ke Khol Du Darwaze

Bahut Si Dhool Zami Hain Yaadon Ke

Aur Kuch Lamhe Kushq Patton Ke Dher Mein Dabi Hain

Bahut Hain Sannata Dil Mein Khamosh Hain Mazi Ke Awaze

Khirkiyan Bhi Bandh Hain Nazron Ki

Kuch Hadh Tak Dikhayi Dete Hain Andheron Mein

Kuch Saya Sa Guzar Jati Hain Mere Tan Ko Chu Ke

Na Chalti Hain Hawayein Purwayee Ki Na 

Zaron Ke Mausam Guzar Te Hain

Ruki Hui Hain Shaashein Aise Dil Mein

Main Kho Gayi Hu Ajnabi Ek Manzil Mein

Sirf Gunjti  Hain Pukar Meri Iss Ghar Ki Kone Kone Mein

Na Uthi Hain Lahar Saazon Ki

Na Baajti Payel Ki Chhankar 

Neeli Si Maykash Ki Badan Se Chalakti Hain

Kuch Badnam Sagar Khalipan Ke

Na Aati Hain Samah Karar Ke Yeh Kaisi Mehfil Hain

Mujhe Kuch Pal Dedo Fursat Ke Aye Masruf Duniya

Khol Du Khirkiyan Ke Dekhu Dhoop Ke Nazarein

Khul Ke Lene Do Shaash Mujhe Aye Deewano

Ke Bahe Jaye Fagun Ke Khussbu Dheeme Se

Aur Ek Do Pankhuriah Naram Phulon Ki Badan Se Hoke

Meri Hatheli Ko Chu Jaye

Aur Bhar Jaye Meri Daman Khusiyon Se

Kuch Barish Ki Boondein Leke Aaye Sawan

Meri Sukhi Hoth Chu Jaye

Aane Do Badal Ko Chup Ke Se Dar Pe

Aane Do Chand Ko Vi Kirno Ke Saath

Main Hu Inn Sabki Intezar Mein

Aye Sitarein Asman Ke Kahedo Inn Savi Se

Mere Ghar Mein Aane Se Yeh Na Sharmayein

Yeh Raat Ki Ghar Hain Jassbat Ki Ghar Hain

Sapno Mein Khoye Ek Tanha Rahi Ki

Bechain Sa Aur Benam Sa Safar Hain

Iss Ki Deewarein Hain Nayi Rangon Ki Chahat Mein

Bahut Hi Nazuk Lekin Bahut Hi Hasin Ek Khowab Hain

Ek Musafir Chalte Chalte Yehi Pe Thahar Gaya Hain

Ek Musafir Chalte Chalte Yehi Pe Thahar Gaya Hain

Moon of Murshid :)

                                                                                  

 Hindus attach paramount importance to spiritual gurus. Gurus are often equated with God and always regarded as a link between the individual and the Immortal. Just as the moon shines by reflecting the light of the sun, and glorifies it, all disciples can dazzle like the moon by gaining from their Gurus.

What is Guru Purnima?
 The full moon day in the Hindu month of Ashad (July-August) is observed as the auspicious day of Guru Purnima, a day sacred to the memory of the great sage Vyasa. All Hindus are indebted to this ancient saint who edited the four Vedas, wrote the 18 Puranas, the Mahabharata and the Srimad Bhagavata. Vyasa even taught Dattatreya, who is regarded as the Guru of Gurus.

Significance of Guru Purnima
 On this day, all spiritual aspirants and devotees worship Vyasa in honor of his divine personage and all disciples perform a 'puja' of their respective spiritual preceptor or 'Gurudevs'.

This day is of deep significance to the farmers, for it heralds the setting in of the much-needed rains, as the advent of cool showers usher in fresh life in the fields. It is a good time to begin your spiritual lessons. Traditionally, spiritual seekers commence to intensify their spiritual 'sadhana' from this day.

The period 'Chaturmas' ("four months") begins from this day. In the past, wandering spiritual masters and their disciples used to settle down at a place to study and discourse on the Brahma Sutras composed by Vyasa, and engage themselves in Vedantic discussions. 

The Vyas purnima, popularly called Guru Purnima, is actually the birthday of Guru Ved Vyas, who edited the four Vedas, wrote 18 Puranas, Mahabharat and Srimad Bhagavata.

 This full moon day in the month of Ashaad is also one of the first among the slew of festivals during the chaturmaas period.

 Ved Vyas is worshipped by all students of Vedas today. Vedas are considered to be the fountainhead of all knowledge, and grateful students of the scriptures perform pujas and aarti of the great saint. Explaining the significance of Guru Purnima, Sanskrit scholar and a teacher of Yajur Veda at the Bhosala Ved Pathshaala in Mahal says, "Vyaso chishtam jagat sarvam, is a popular saying in Sanskrit. It means that all knowledge that comes from the Vedas is very superior. The students of Vedas thus express their gratitude to the great sage."

 However, Pathak says that everybody should observe this day. "Guru Purnima is observed by those who are under the guidance of a guru. But those who are not, can pay their respects to their parents. Scriptures say that the mother is the first teacher followed by the father."
