When I visited Varanasi for the first time (2011) had a chance to visit a place (kind of an open Hall of 300 Sqfts.) near (most known for being a place of Hindu cremation) where group of Old age women are longing for their holy death and get burnt in Manikarnika Ghat, That time didn't have a right chance to click. This time we saw very few people in the Hall and this lady was sitting in the entrance of the building.

This may be the only year in that past decade that I make but one trip down to the Waterfront Park sakura trees. I have mixed feelings about that, but for the most part, I've made my peace with it.

Einst, wenn der Winter begann,
du hieltest von seinen Schleiern,
den Dämmerdörfern, den Weihern
die Schatten an.
Oder die Städte erglommen
sphinxblau an Schnee und Meer -
wo ist das hingekommen
und keine Wiederkehr.
Alles des Grams, der Gaben
früh her in unser Blut -:
wenn wir gelitten haben,
ist es dann gut?
Gottfried Benn

God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.
These are the words we dimly hear:
You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.
Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don’t let yourself lose me.
Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its seriousness.
Give me your hand.
- Rainer Maria Rilke
