महात्मा / Mahatma (Saint)

Kaushal Kishore

हर व्यक्ति में एक ‘महात्मा’
छुपा होता है,
या तो उस चमक को पहचानते नहीं
या उसे आप कुंद कर देते हैं,
जो आपको “आप” बनाती है…

🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀

There is a “Mahatma”
hidden in every person,
you either don’t recognise
or just blunt the spark
that makes you “you”…

P.S.On the occasion of Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti, let us recognise and bring it forward…

–Kaushal Kishore
