नाब हूँ


नाव हूँ 

मैं बस एक नाव हूँ।

बिखरे आसमान में चुभता बादल हूँ,

चिरता चिल्लाता बिजली बारिश में हूँ।

बिखरे आसमान और पतझड़ में,

खुद-खुद ही को पार लगाया हूँ।

मैं बस एक नाव हूँ।

......

किनारे आते-जाते हैं,

पर मैं कहाँ ठहर पाता हूँ।

हर किनारे से बस गीला नोंक लिये आता हूँ।

पानी में होकर भी कीचड़ से ढोये रहता हूँ,

तो कलंकित हूँ नजरों में।

फिर भी तैरते रहता हूँ,

मैं बस एक नाव हूँ।

......

कर्म में है जो तैरना,

मैं कहाँ किनारे पर ठहर पाता हूँ।

किनारे की हर इंच से,

जो पानी पीछे छोड़ आता हूँ।

हर बूंद से है मेरा एक रिश्ता,

पर साथ कहाँ निभा पाता हूँ।

मैं बस एक नाव हूँ।

......

लोग कहते हैं,

हवा से तो मेरा सम्बन्ध है।

बोले जब हवा पाल से ही ख़फा है,

हर झोंके से दूर धकेलता है।

अब इस झगड़े में,

मैं किनारे से दूर चला जाता हूँ।

मैं बस एक नाव हूँ।

Much of this interest stemmed from my socio-economic background and a lingering question in my mind: What could I have achieved if I had access to better educational opportunities? Recently, I've delved into the nuances of educational choices across school, higher education, and particularly PhD levels. As a researcher, I find it crucial to employ methods that accurately interpret these choices using quantitative data, graphs, and equations. However, I often feel constrained by the limitations of these models and the lack of comprehensive educational data in India, especially at the individual level. This blog explores why educational choices in India often fall short and highlights the data points needed to improve our existing analytical methods. Not-so-Educational Choices in India The concept of "educational choices" is inherently subjective, shaped by human constructs and soc
