In a world grappling with rapid changes and complex challenges, literature serves as a beacon that illuminates the human condition. This anthology seeks to gather voices that delve into the intricacies of our society, reflect on environmental concerns, delineate the issues of gender based identity, critique educational paradigms, explore the depths of religious beliefs, the heterogeneity of cultural practices, food cultures, plant imaginaries, human-nonhuman entanglements, speculative futures, comparative philosophy, aesthetics, orality and folk practices, media and culture, and celebrate the essence of humanism. They believe that poems, essays, plays, dialogues, arts, performances and stories are powerful mediums to provoke thought, inspire dialogue, and foster a deeper understanding of the world around us. By bringing together a mosaic of perspectives, they hope to create a platform that not only entertains but also enlightens and empowers readers to contemplate and engage with these pivotal themes. they are also inviting translations of creative and critical pieces from any Indian language (with due copyright permission from the original authors\/publishers by translators) in English or Hindi language.<\/p>\n
