Different dimensions of thinking

Poetry is also a record of history. The time, environment and society in which the poet lived comes alive in poetry.

Poet Amrita Smriti's poem-book 'Nadiko Tirkha' discusses Nepali society. He has taken the time he experienced in poetry. The title of the book itself is strange. The river, which is itself full of water, why is he thirsty? However, Smriti says - 'The river is also thirsty, thirsty to meet the ocean.'

Different dimensions of thinking

It is amazing in itself, it also reflects love and philosophy of life. Everyone has a thirst – for someone's presence, companionship or achieving a goal/destination in life. Reaching somewhere/someone to merge or say to attain moksha.

Poetry is also a record of history. The time, environment and society in which the poet lived are depicted vividly in the poem. The simplicity of Amrita's poetry is reflected in a serious manner. Love, nature, co-existence and human noble feelings, gender and class bias, contemporary issues, philosophy of life, the beautiful beauty of the time that is buried through the eyes of experience are scattered in his poems. The poetic consciousness of

memory is not contrived. She uses a conscious pen. He has the art of hitting political inconsistency with a curved mercury. He doesn't like poems like Kora Naraza. A beautiful vision of an ideal society is in the poem. However, Kora Adarsh ​​does not lecture. It is also the poet's art. He has a decent satire-rebellion against vices such as distortion, inconsistency, dishonesty, lies, robbery, deceit. Often in poetry there is a search for a new era, a beautiful time and society. Poetry has all the qualities, emotions, thoughts, images, art, style and craft, and his poems are readable. The poem 'Malik' in the

collection is a beautiful poem that tells the social reality. An orphan girl is sheltered by a childless couple from a rich family. Even though she is engaged in all the household chores, the girl can see the face of the school, she is happy. However, when a child is born from the mother's womb, then the act of beating the girl and kicking her out of the house begins. The high-class, class discrimination and the calamity of the poor in the society and the behavior of the so-called elders are depicted here in beautiful words and images.

In 'Mainako Modern Geet', the place given to women by the society is shocking. Depicting the fate of a daughter who has to leave her birth home and go to a foreign home, this poem shows the desire to end the situation of having to worship the so-called 'divinity' of men.

In 'Drishti', a girlfriend is surprised by an unexpected reply to her boyfriend when he sends her feelings through a photo. Poet Smriti envisions sleep without dreams, heart without brain, love without consciousness and home without walls. And, she says - love has no need, no condition, no age. The 50 poems included in the

collection are very short and medium in size. In the poem 'Churchi man', there is a feeling that the stone is more beautiful and praiseworthy than the person sitting on the chair. There is a new hope and desire for change in the poem 'New Time'. In 'Jalan Shikha', there is a philosophy of life that a person who is jealous of another burns his own heart, and cannot burn anything of another.

'Badalko Virya' is a poem of symbolic romance in which nature is humanized. The poem 'White Museum' is a poignant picture of the legal life that women have to go through. In this poem, the country is also compared to a woman who has been robbed of her colour. Kavi says -

with women

Don't you have a color that you can paint yourself?

that robbers rob?

If so,

My country is also a woman

Whose color you have been robbing for ages. (White Museum, page 99)

Amrita's poems flowed like a river. It is simple and has a sweetness to it. There is variety in subject matter. There are various dimensions of subtle perception and thinking. The presentation has a softness like a flower.

Like the unexpected turns that sometimes come when the river is flowing, there are turns in the image, sequence and feeling in his poems, for example -

I was in the dark

Pretend I am Vinci

Pretend I am Salvador Dali

As if I am the one, Arani's

seemed to be like, I am Salai

If I draw a little with you, I will burn. (Paper ship, page 30)

This poem has a memory of a friend from school life. There is a feeling that he would make a picture for him and at that time he would be satisfied as if he had become a great painter. Suddenly comes the feeling of slaying. The unspoken romantic feeling of being drawn to him as if he were to touch it is also reflected here. What is the relationship between the painter and Salai? If the picture is creation, then it is a symbol of destruction. It seems that these two events should be placed in different paragraphs. Even a space has a great meaning in poetry.

Kavyayatra is also rowing a boat in the river of continuous cultivation and refinement. 'Thirst for the river' is born from sadhana and refinement.
