At any cost, there are always some essential things to do in life.Like we eat, every day, reading is one particular thing in spite of however neck deep we are in with other hundred and one errands.The peril social media brought is killing the quality time of book reading.An inevitable ghost, demands prime of our time and the reasons are too terrific to resist.Everyone accepts it; I hope.Or it could be like that with me.
Well, even all these odds wouldn't dampen spirits of us when really the habit of reading poked into the bones.Morning is the ideal time for me to pick up some books and get into it as much as possible.I strongly decided to finish off three books this time from my bucket list.Frankly speaking, these were half read in my leisure time and now the right moment to pull them off or never.
Fingers crossed? Going to unravel. Surely these won't take you by storm.But you would be curious about what made this crazy guy kept pursuing these.Ruskin Bond's Great stories for children, yes,you heard right.That's what I am going to give a read to complete.My childhood gets rejuvenated whenever I read Ruskin Bond.His way of telling a tale is mysterious for me.It fascinates not only the child, but also entire all ages in our home.Those Himalayan flowers, trees, hillside villages, young children, grand fathers, ghosts, relics of British constructions and what not, every thing haunts in a strange manner.
And the second one is a Telugu book. It is really an amazing contribution to the Indian travel history.And which described the adventurous journey of Sri Enugula Veera Swamy in the 1830s.He embarked 4000 k.m. travel, From Chennai to Kashi or Varanasi.Route taken from Chennai,Tirupathi,Kadapa,Srisailam,Hyderabad,Nagpur,Jabalpur via other places to reach and in return journey, he had chosen different places of Bihar,West Bengal,Odisha and Andhra to get his home town Chennai.Perhaps, in those remote years, there was no other human being to achieve this kind of travel adventure on the earth, even in any country if I am not mistaken.Pages get flipping up.
The third book is Zeme Folk tales.It is a collection of 31 folk tales of Naga Land.And which encompasses of social, cultural and religious beliefs of Nagas.We should better say, more than that in brief.Legends, ballads, rituals, social structure and ecology of Naga Land collected in the book.Down south, very few people know the fabric of North Eastern states.More books like these are to be of a great help to manifold at greater extent.
People should go beyond the text books.The real world;the vaster and the brighter are always out there.
