Ajneya

The lonely chambers of the prison, though bolted and barred, also created freedom of spirit, hope and vision.

The meaning of existence, instead of plunging into humiliation, gave the prisoners hope of tomorrow which would bring deliverance.

Deeply insightful and thought provoking, these poems shimmer with a dream-like quality.

These lines make grass become green again and flowers bloom. Nilambari Nilambari is a collection of poems written by Ajneya in 1965-80, and later translated by him.

These poems reflect on the poems's love for solitude, and the bond between the individual and nature.

The poems capture the agony of man that stems from his denial of the true nature of life - perishable, impermanent.

Poignant and well-crafted, these poems bring the reader face to face with their reality, which is gruesome if denied but beautiful if accepted.
