buna!nu credeam ca poate exista un astfel de forum dar ma bucur ca exista.nu stiu de ce traiesc pe pamant si fiecare zi mi se pare un chin, sper sa mi se intamnple ceva frumos dar nu se intampla…e deprimant si ma simt mai rau in fiecare zi.

Bana değil suya anlat dedi
O herşeyi bilir
Sadece o yıkar geçmişi
Şahitlik ederim anlattıklarına
Ama bana değil mutlak suya anlat
Her rüya sonunda nefesini üfleyerek.

I.Nefes

Göğüne değmesem haberi olmazdı
Kendine gelenden, usulca gidenden
İnadına soğuktu bütün iklimler
Her pusulada yazlar aranır,
Baharlar yolu müjdelerdi.

Bu kez yılkı zamanı
Her kader kendini tanıyacak
Taşımaz ince bedenler ayazı
Şimal dön der “burası değil
Bana kalsa geri dön,
Henüz vakitliyken.”

Bir güney düşü, ıssız desem değil
Tedirgin uykudan uyanamama hali belki
Bir noktadan açılan onlarca yol
Ve doğrusu meçhul
Öğrenmişler kendilerine çağırır
Gerçek hiç yaşanmayandır belki de
Nidasız bir ses, kayıp desem değil.

Dönülür elbet gidilen yollardan
Yılkı denilen bir mevsim
Bir ağaç buldum kurumuş dalları
Göğünü yararken grilikte
Karlara gebe bir gece yarısı.

Çaputlarda ebemkuşağı dilekler
İki rengi adağıma seçtim
Turuncu: Sağ bileğime bağladığım
Düşüm,
Varılmamış atlasa diğeri
Ve eflatun: Bir ucu bileğimde…
Diğer ucu kuru dalına astığım.

Bir cevap.
Uçurumun başında
Kendini astığı dilek ağacı gölgesinde
Suretin sulhünü bekler gibi
Dinginleşmeye hasret,
Toprağa yüz sürer gibi.

Suya üflediklerimin ilkidir.

Su anlar her dilden
Şeklini alır, sarmalar
Suya anlattığın sırrındır
Kuyu eder kendine, anlar ve yıkar
İlk sır mühürdür, üfledin ve kilitledin.
Hazır olduğunda ikinci nefes,
Ve tekrar şahitlik ederim.

II. Nefes

Zahirde kalmadı söz
Rivayet ki:
Yıldızlar batında doğar
Mana sinede büyür
Ve sır “mim” dir.
Kadim bir zikir gibi
Dilden dile iz gibi.

Bir rüya kavmi
Bir vaha ve bir kuyu
Asr-ı erenler zamanı
Sabrının sırrına erenler
Kendi cennetlerinde.
Ve hüşu: Evren ahengi.

Bir rüyanın
Hiç bitmemesini dileyerek
Dönerek zamanın içinde
Kendi küresinde
Ashabın gölgesinden
Zerrenin bilincine
Karışarak sarmalın ucunda
Diğer taraftan atılan
Kovulmuş bir soy olur.

“Ayn” sabrı görür
“Sin” aşikar edemez
Şimdilerde hicran ve ah
Gözyaşlarıyla yıkanmış
Eyvah.

Bir rüyanın en güzel yerinde
Hiç bitmemesini dilerken
Uyanır gerçek,
Karışır zaman.

Şahidime ve suya
Sabah hayrına
Bir kez daha…

Yeni bir güne uyanacağımıza
Eminsin değil mi?
Güzel şeylerin beklediğine?
Bildiğim tek zaman şimdi
Elimden bi’şey gelmiyor.


III. Nefes

Kayıp gitme artık düşlerimden.
Uzaklaşan her bir görüntüyü
Kavşaklarda izliyorum.
Her dönemeçte koşuyorum,
Yok, kayboluyorsun…

Kum fırtınası günler
Uçuşup kayboluyor ard arda
Ve solgun, sarı.
Beni yetim bırakıyorsun
Bir hevesin elinde piç oluyorum.

Şehirlerin köprülerinden geçiyorum
Hepsi tanıdık
Bir rüya seyyahıyım,
Derken kirpiklerini eğiyor ince bir acı
Bildikçe sızım oluyorsun.

Aklımın odalarına tüneller kazıyorum
Kolaçan ediyorum dört bir yanı
Kirli ve utangaç oluyorum.
Issız bir şehrin insafına kaldım
Bilmiyorsun.

Kuru ve çatlak her köşe
Gündüz değil azap gibi bir kış
Ayazı içimde buza kesiyor
Ve aynı kavşakta izlerini buluyorum.
Gene mi gidiyorsun?

Sözcüksüz tanımlamalar zinciri
İzahı yok işte
Aynı köşede bildiğim kavşakta
Kaybolmadan az evvel
Beni kurşuna diziyorsun
Celladıma hiç kinim yok
Çok önce bağışladım diyorum
Ellerinin insafına kalıyorum.

Sustuğum acılar konuşuyor şimdilerde
Bilmediğim bir dil oluyor
Beyhude bir çevirme telaşı
Belki de öldüm çoktan
Avuçlarımdaki soğuk toprak
Delilidir, belki.

Koyup gittiğin her köşe başında
Her şehre, köprüye kırılıyorum
Bir şehir çocukluğum oluyor
Büyümeye kalıyorum.
Geçmişi kundaklıyorum
Eşgalleri yakıyorum
Hafızamda bir bir.

Şimdilerde kaldım ya burada
İçimde geç kalmış bir mezarcı telaşı
Kıstırıldım diyorum
Dört yanım duvar
Döndükçe kanıyorum.
Bir kavşakta izlerini arıyorum
Dikiş tutmuyor tenim.

Beni öylece bırakıyorsun ya
Dönemeçlerin bir yerinde
Kayboluyorsun ya, kendimden düşüyorum ya,
Dönüşüyorum ya bilmediğim herşeye karışırken
Anladım.

İzi kalır herşeyin
Bi’kaç geçmiş, yerine oturmayan söküklerin
Kayan her yıldızın boşluğu ordadır
Bazen bir rüya sebebi olur
Ne diyeyim, herşey yolundadır belki de.
Böyle iyidir…

3
2
1
Tekrar ve tekrar
Bildik dönemeç
Bu sefer kapalı gözlerim
Ben görmeden…
Öylece git
Usulca.

Üç nefes, üç rüya
Her sır suya
Mührü; zamanın elinde
Zaman “tek” sırrı aşikar…
Üç rüya…

DARI ANTA: Tulisan saudara Tahjud

Bermula haqiqat Takbiratul Ihram ketika solat  itu, hendaklah kita musyahadah (memandang dengan mata hati) kepada Dzat Allah terlebih dahulu, sebelum mengangkat tangan takbiratul ihram, maka hendaklah kita tetapkan  hati, Ruh, dan perasaan kita untuk tawajuh (menghadap) kepada  liqa’ Allah SWT (aspek wujud Allah).
Bila sudah demikian, baru kita kata usalli… (berniat) dan sudah mengembalikan (menyerahkan) amanat Allah Ta’ala yang ada pada kita, yakni wujud kita yang kasar ini (jasad) dan yang menanggung amanat,  iaitu diri kita yang bathin.

Adapun amanat itu kita serahkan kepada pemilik amanah, yakni Dzat Allah SWT. Itulah sebabnya kita disebut Ummat Muhammad SAW yang ditanyai mengenai amanat Allah Ta’ala itu seperti firmannya :  Bahwasanya Allah Ta’ala memerintah kepadamu sekalian untuk mengembalikan amanat itu kepada pemiliknya.

Dengan dikembalikan (diserahkan) amanat Allah itu kepada pemiliknya, iaitu Dzat Allah SWT  itu sendiri, maka jadilah kita fana (lebur/hilang/karam) sekalian sifat tubuh (manusiawi) di dalam laut “Ruh Bahrul Qadim”, (lautan ruh yang kekal) adapun yang tinggal ketika itu hanya sifat Ruh semata-mata, dan itulah Ruh ilmu Allah, kemudian, kita Takbir dan katakan Allahhu Akbar.

Itulah yang dinamakan lebur (karam) sifat kehambaan diri kita, Fana dalam Allah, dan kemudiannya kekal (baqa) dalam  Allah, di mana yang nyata hanyalah keadaan Dzat Allah semata-mata.

Inilah yang harus kita syuhudkan (pandang dengan mata hati) semasa solat mulai dari Takbiratul ihram hingga sampai kepada memberi salam. Maka janganlah kita lalai dari syuhud itu, di pandang dengan mata hati,  itulah pengetahuan Dzat dan ilmunya dan sebenar-benar ilmunya,  iman kepada kita dan sebenar-benar Sir Allah (Diri Rahsia Allah),  Cahaya Kalam Allah yang tidak berhuruf, tidak bersuara (sebutan dalam hati), iaitu wujud Dzat Yang Mutlak.

Seperti yang tersebut dalam Hadits Qudsi : Tidak bersuara, tidak berhuruf dan tiada bertempat dan berbekas (sebutan dalam hati)
Firman Allah dalam Al-qur’an : Apakah mereka itu dijadikan bukan dari sesuatu atau mereka yang menjadikan mereka, dan bukanlah Aku yang menjadikan mereka.

Hendaklah Takbiratul ihram kita itu, dengan sah  lagi jazam, yakni yakin, hati kita hadir dengan Allah Ta’ala, iaitu  ingat kepada Allah, maka takbir kita serta membesarkan Allah Ta’ala (Allah maha meliputi). Pada waktu mengangkat takbir itu, (kita) menjadi tempat perhimpunan pada kalimah La Ilaha Illa Allah (Tiada Tuhan kecuali Allah): yang kita pandang (dengan mata hati) hanya Dzat Allah semata-mata artinya kita fana sekali-kali tidak ada, yang ada hanya Wujud Allah semata.
Caranya adalah, sebelum mengangkat tangan untuk Takbiratul ihram sebelum solat, kita tarik nafas dengan Hu haqiqatnya Aku Allah Akbar yang lain semua kecil. Sesudah itu di angkat takbiratul ihram “Allahu Akbar” dengan qasat, ta’aradh, ta’ayyin (tubuh hati Ruh). Kemudian yang tinggal hanyalah Dzat Allah semata, yakinlah pada syuhud ini.

 ARTI RAHASIA SURAH AL-FATEHAH DIALUH QUDSI:

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI DIUCAPKAN KEPADA SEMUA GURU, STAF DAN MURID DI SK BUKIT NIBONG KHASNYA SERTA SELURUH WARGA PENDIDIKAN YANG BERAGAMA ISLAM AMNYA.

MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN

E important să laşi anumite lucruri să treacă. Să le dai drumul. Să te desprinzi de ele. Oamenii trebuie să înţeleagă că nimeni nu trişează , uneori câştigăm , alteori pierdem. Nu aştepta să ţi se dea ceva înapoi , nu aştepta să ţi se recunoască efortul , să ţi se descopere geniul , să ţi se înţeleagă iubirea. Încheie nişte etape. Nu din orgoliu , din neputinţă sau din mândrie , ci pur şi simplu pentru că acel lucru nu se mai potriveşte cu viaţa ta. Închide uşa , schimbă discul , fă curat in casă , şterge praful. Încetează să mai fii cine erai , şi transformă-te în cine eşti. Paulo Coelho

 Allah jangan dikhayalkan:

Jangan berkhayal tentang Tuhan

Tuhan wajib untuk dibuktikan…disaksikan

Agar terarah sasaran penyembahan

Jelas tercurah dan terarah penyerahan diri

Menyembah Tuhan bukan ucapan… tetapi

Melihat dan dilihat dengan kepastian

Tuhan bukan untuk dikhayalkan

Wujudnya hendaklah di tajalikan.. dizahirkan.

Gemuruh terompet.. genderang Insani

Menerima keselarasan putaran bumi

Melodi menghadirkan muzik Ruhani

Sedangkan di Surga hanya menikmati hasil duniawi

Kerana belum menyelam ke dalam diri

Dan belum basyar (melihat) kepada Sang Ilahi

Wahai Insan penduduk bumi

Masuklah ke Istana Rabbi di Arshy

Turunkan Cahaya Ilahi ke dalam diri

Inna anzalna fi Lalitul Qadri

Inilah nikmat berpuasa di bulan Ramadan..

lebih baik dari seribu bulan.

Seorang ahli ibadah bernama Isam Bin Yusuf, sangat warak dan khusyuk solatnya. Namun, dia selalu khuatir kalau-kalau ibadahnya kurang khusyuk dan selalu bertanya kepada orang yang dianggapnya lebih ibadahnya, demi untuk memperbaiki dirinya yang selalu dirasainya kurang khusyuk.

Pada suatu hari, Isam menghadiri majlis seorang abid bernama Hatim Al-Assam dan bertanya, “Wahai Aba Abdurrahman, bagaimanakah caranya tuan solat?” Hatim berkata,

“Apabila masuk waktu solat, aku berwudhuk zahir dan batin.”

Isam bertanya, “Bagaimana wudhuk zahir dan batin itu? ” Hatim berkata,”Wudhuk zahir sebagaimana biasa iaitu membasuh semua anggota wudhuk dengan air”. Sementara wudhuk batin ialah membasuh anggota dengan tujuh perkara :-

• * Bertaubat
• * Menyesali dosa yang telah dilakukan
• * Tidak tergila-gilakan dunia
• * Tidak mencari/mengharap pujian orang (riya’)
• * Tinggalkan sifat berbangga
• * Tinggalkan sifat khianat dan menipu
• * Meninggalkan sifat dengki.”

Seterusnya Hatim berkata, ” K emudian aku pergi ke masjid, aku kemaskan semua anggotaku dan menghadap kiblat.

Aku berdiri dengan penuh kewaspadaan dan aku rasakan:

1. aku sedang berhadapan dengan Allah,
2. Syurga di sebelah kananku,
3. Neraka di sebelah kiriku,
4. Malaikat Maut berada di belakangku, dan
5. aku bayangkan pula aku seolah-olah berdiri di atas titian ‘Siratal mustaqim’ dan menganggap bahawa solatku kali ini adalah solat terakhir bagiku, kemudian aku berniat dan bertakbir dengan baik.”

“Setiap bacaan dan doa didalam solat, aku faham maknanya kemudian aku rukuk dan sujud dengan tawadhuk, aku bertasyahud dengan penuh pengharapan dan aku memberi salam dengan ikhlas. Beginilah aku bersolat selama 30 tahun.”

Apabila Isam mendengar, menangislah dia kerana membayangkan ibadahnya yang kurang baik bila dibandingkan dengan Hatim.

-Nefes(ten) Nefs’e-

Kaburgama yıldızlar doldurdum
Her nefeste yenilerini kattım
Kudret onlara söz geçirebilmekte
Perdeler kapanmadan.
Sen var olansan hikmetini sormalıyım
Yıldızları gölgeleyebilir misin?
Benden bana bir yol açılır gönlümün aynasından,
Seyreylerim
Köz olursun kimi zaman
Ben, bende çağlarken,
Sır, toza karışırken.

-Nefs’ten Nefese-

Kaos gözlerini dikmiş seyretmekte zamanın üç halini
Hangi çağdan geldiğini sorar
Sen bilinmeyen isen, korlardan geçensin
Arşın gölgesinden yeryüzüne an be an
Zahir / batın her ne varsa
Odalarını aç
Görünmeyeni varlığa döndür.

Bir söz
Tek bir an
Seyrini mümkün kıl âlemlerin

Ey Nefs!

Topraklar, topraklarınız ölümlü ne çare
Bir kabuk, tenin mezarı
Gömülenler bir kabuk aşağıda,
Kaşısan çıkacak gibi, tırnak uçlarını sızlatan
Tan vakti gölge hayaller kaçışırken
Soytarılar görünür gülümseyerek
Şimdi ölme vakti,
Duhan zamanı, ölüm nefesi
Kıyamet kendimizi karşılayacağımız gün
Ve bir an kadar yakınken.

Ey ay!
Aşkım koşulsuz sevdana
Yârinden yarelerini gizleme çabana
Şeymalarını hep kendine saklamanadır.
Ve hiç gücenmez misin bu kibirin zorbalığında?
Yıldızlar secde eder bu aşka, ferlerinden utanır
Nefs sezdikçe varlığından utanır
Ben her bildiğimde yıldızları sineme gömer,
Zerresinde kül olur karışırım.
Ne zaman aşkı bilmek istesem, insanlığımdan utanır
Emanet getirdiğin ışığına bakarım.

Odalarını aç, arınmaya geldim
Bir damla suyken nehrine kat, hiç olayım
Kendimden geçip çağlayayım
Zerre iken tek bir anda sonsuza kanayım
Bu armoni ebedi mabedim
Yollarını arala, bırak narında yanayım
Adı konmamış vakitlerin bir yerinde,
Gittikçe gelen, döndükçe duran
Kapındayım.

*Duhan: Kıyametin büyük alametlerinden biri dünyayı kaplayacak olan duman bulutu.
**Şeyma: Aydaki kraterlere ve yüzdeki benlere verilen ad.

Paulo Coelho – Záhir (Argo, 2005, str. 22)

Zatímco jsem bojoval, viděl jsem, jak lidé mluví ve jménu svobody, a čím víc lidí hájí toto jedinečné právo, tím většími otroky se stávají, pokud jde o přání rodičů, o manželství, v němž slibují, že setrvají s tím druhým “až do konce života”, otroky své váhy, svých diet, plánů přerušených v půli, lásek, jimž nebylo možné říct “ne” nebo “stačí”, nedělí v nichž se musí jíst s někým jen z povinnosti. Stávají se otroky luxusu, zdání luxusu, zdání zdání luxusu. Otroky života, který si nezvolili, ale jejž se rozhodli žít, protože někdo je nakonec přesvědčil, že to pro ně bude lepší. A tak uplývaly jejich pořád stejné dny a noci, za nichž dobrodružství bylo slovem v knize nebo obrazem ve stále puštěné televizi, a jakmile se před nimi otevřely nějaké dveře, říkali: “To mě nazajímá, nechce se mi.”

Jak mohli vědět, jestli se jim chce, nebo nechce, když to nikdy nezkusili? Bylo však zbytečné se ptát; ve skutečnosti se báli jakékoliv změny, která by otřásla světem, na nějž si zvykli.

Ever heard of the “Cloud Computing”? Yes, computing resources and applications delivered from the “cloud” (a term normally referring to Internet as a black box network). Often also dubbed as “XaaS” or “X as a Services” – we replace “X” with whatever terms you want to deliver via the Cloud.

It is definitely something cloudy… a technology which is still early stage of adoption, but I believe it has crossed the chasm already (Need to verify that!).

Wikipedia has a good introduction of Cloud Computing. And I guess you can find a bunch from Slideshare as well. Generally accepted is there are three categories of Cloud-based services:

• Infrastructure as a Services: basic computing/IT resources (hence infrastructure) sold and provided in a pay-as-you-go manner, e.g. storage and rent-a-server-computing-power from Amazon AWS.
• Platform as a Services: in my observation this is software platforms, also delivered from the Internet, that enable you to create your own services on top of them. Example: Ning – a social networking platform.
• Software as a Services: imagine you have your word processor, spreadsheet, presentation tools, collaboration tools, image editing, mindmapping, expense & personal finance tracking, email, calendaring, address book, school management system, CRM, ERP, virtual workspace/project management, core banking system, etc. all delivered from the Internet, without installing any applications on your PC. Err, happening already?

Key drivers for Cloud Computing are (non-exhaustive list yet):

• the first ones relates to outsourcing and out-tasking
• cost effective (kind of…) – no initial investment, monthly recurring charge or sometimes free… the provider can achieve economics of scale by consolidating all the resources
• kind of cost effective in the view that you don’t need to buy licensed software as well…
• concentrate of core competencies – no need to maintain servers and infra, no need to develop own apps
• data safety in the sense of disaster recovery
• portability of data – available anywhere you are, with a bonus ease of sharing and collaboration

Key issues for adoption – I’ll put Indonesian context in bold – are:

• Internet connectivity and bandwidth – broadband is not so pervasive (but it will change!)… there are some technologies though that can optimize the use of bandwidth so that it can help application performance in low-speed links
• Trust & security – storing your sensitive data on someone else’ servers… hmm… (this is a world-wide concern, though)
• Adoption of IT in general - how many companies are adopting IT yet? Especially SME (and even big companies, trust me I was there…)
• Cost – or questionable TCO - also relates to IT adoption, especially if you have to pay for some SaaS; this in turns make our poor XaaS providers just go poorer….
• Availability of pirated apps… :-0
• Service Level Agreement
• Loss of customization (hmm… though SFDC is believed to be very customizable)
• Not best of breed applications (hmm… Google Apps is good enough and MS new Cloud-based Office suite should be cutting edge as well)

Is it happening in Indonesia? I hope it will.

• And I do hope that the opportunity is grabbed by Indonesians. I want a version of Google Apps (or Salesforce.com or whatever) hosted, created and delivered by Indonesians!
• I think the small-medium segments are the right segment to pursue. I know the Koreans government are doing this with their IT389 (or 839 or whatever), providing XaaS for their SME’s.

Sigma has already started cloud-based core banking system for small banks.

Another candidate is Zahir. One of the good accounting software package. Can we deliver them via the Cloud? (Or did they already?)

Hmm… the sky is the limit!

Cualquiera que me conozca un poquito sabe que le tengo especial cariño a la palabra “Zahir”. Me gusta, aparte de porque en mi oído suena bien, por su significado.

“Según el escritor Jorge Luis Borges, la idea del Zahir procede de la tradición islámica, y se estima que surgió en torno al siglo XVIII. En árabe Zahir significa visible, presente, incapaz de pasar desapercibido. Algo o alguien con el que, una vez entramos en contacto, acaba ocupando poco a poco nuestro pensamiento, hasta que no somos capaces de concentrarnos en nada más. Eso se puede considerar santidad o locura” 

Todavía no he leído a Borges, pero si a Coelho. Éste libro llegó a mi bajo una recomendación de un amigo, que después de leer el Alquimista, sugirió que sería el próximo título más indicado para mi. A mi realmente no me llamaba la atención, cuando entraba en la Fnac y veía el libro me venía a la mente una alta torre musulmana y ahora que lo pienso, la verdad es que no sé porqué. Eso es lo que provocaba a mi la palabra antes de leer el libro. Después de varios intentos por decidirme a leer el libro, me puse manos a la obra y lo devoré.

Estoy segura de que ni Borges tiene nada que ver con Coelho ni viceversa. También sé de la polémica que este tema suscita y en realidad me igual. Porque yo no leo libros con nombre y apellidos, yo leo libros que me remuevan algo en el interior, que de alguna manera me atrapen, me hagan sentir viva..

No sé si por el momento, las circunstancias, o vete tú a saber qué.. éste libro hizo mella en mí y desde entonces “Zahir” me acompaña muy amenudo.

Mi opinión actual sobre el término dista mucho de la opinión inicial y es que al igual que no se debe juzgar a nadie por las apariencias (ya que éstas engañan) tampoco puedes juzgar un libro sin antes haberlo leído.

Para los curiosos: la palabra Zahir tiene más significados, entre ellos:

* Una moneda de 20 centavos en Buenos Aires.

* Un tigre en Guzerat en el siglo XVIII.

* Un astrolabio en Persia.

* Una brújula en el s XIX.

* Una veta en el mármol de un pilar en la aljama de Córdoba.

* El fondo de un pozo en Tetuán.

As i have mentioned earlier, this serial “pavitra rishta” is all about a simple down to earth maharashtrian girl and a boy who will be entering her life ( that’s sushant aka preet from Kis desh mein hai meraa dil’) In the first week we saw  the introduction of Archana’s family and also that how Archana gets refused just because she is not well educated……………and as destiny has written for them they get to pray together at the famous SIDDHI VINAYAK mandir although they dont get to see each other…..

…then in the fifth episode we witnessed how Archana helps a poor boy jo ki chori karta pakda jata hai and usse bachati hai hamari Archana….and right here usko dekhta hai Manav (aka Preet aka Sushant) ….

par woh Archana ka chehra dekh nahi pata bas uski aankhen dikhti hai Manav ko and he’s all into her after this……

*Edited* 10th June:

In the second week we got to know that Manav (Preet) isn’t a rich bloc but a garage owner and he doesn’t believe in the word Love as he wants a simple girl for himself who can manage his home in 15-16 thousand with 5-6 mouths to feed,…..yet his friend forces him to have faith that he will find love in his life………

Or dusri taraf Archana’s mom is makes preparations to go for Ajit’s engagement;…………on the way in the local train again Manav (aka Preet) is there; he recognizes Archana who’s standing with her back towards hi by a burn mark on her wrist however this time for second time he is not able to catch a proper glimpse of her (here, the background music from movie LOVE is perfectly suited).

At the function Archana’s mother where she notices a suitable boy for Archana (Satish an acquaintance of Manjusha’s mom) and woh Manjusha ki mom se Archana ki baat chalane ko kahati hai……………….but she doesn’t instead she makes her aware of some realities and being rude she goes on to say that Satish would never want an illiterate girl for himself as he himself is a Management graduate……………..and here this conversation is over heard by none other than Archana……..

Later at their place Archana tries to console her mother but her sister-in-law (bhabhi) hears it and all this takes the shape of a big fight with Varsha and Vaishali joining in to support their mother…….….as this argument increases Archana bursts into tears and apologizes and asks them to stop fighting over her …….

11^th June:

Next morning Archana’s father tries to make her realize that her mother and sisters love her and so they were just standing up for her……..right then enters her friend Madhuri to call her to find a boy who has ditched Swati, their other friend.

Although (in rainy background) the person they are encounter with is no one else but Mannav (Preet) and this mistake lead to coming face-to-face of Manav and Archana; She tells her friends that Manav is not the fellow who has cheated with their friend. They apologize to him but Manav is too happy to meet the girl of her dreams and is completely mesmerised with her; yahan aapna hero  barish mein bhegti heroine ko help karte hue usse umbrella offer karta hai…….

Swati notices the name of Ajit from Archana and gets even more alarmed when she tells her that ajit’s full name is Ajit Lokhande…..

12th June:

The next day, at the wedding Swati is there and she tells Archana that her boyfriend and Ajit are same persons; she creates a scene by raising finger at Ajit and also adds that she was helped by Archana………..

*Edited* 15th June

Well jaisa ki last episode ki ending ke baad hum sabne socha tha, something similar happened that Swati created a scene and so calling off the marriage of Ajit and like we thought sara ka sara blame Archana par aata hai (Swati commented “Archana ki vajah se mujhe Ajit ki sachhaai pata chali hai);

And after this again a lot of crying – (rona dhona n all) with Manjusha’s mom shouting and blaming Archana that whatever happened it was all because of her and she did on purpose coz being 26+ she wasn’t married yet, not only she insults Archana but her mother too…..that their family being poor doesn’t have any values and blah blah blah!!!!

This finally evokes Vinod, Archana’s brother to stand for her sister and to say,” Agar aap Archana ko aapne ghar se nikal sakti hai, toh mein bhi Manju ko………” this leaves Manju (his wife) in shock;  he’s stopped by his mother saying that we aren’t like them and we have treated our daughter-in-law as our daughter from the first day……..she also warns her other two daughters (Varsha and Vaishali) not to be offensive or rude towards Manju when they reach home………after all this drama they all leave for home;

Now, there’s a Manav (aka Sushant) scene that portrays how he was able to concentrate on his work……so enters his friend Tarun, to ask the reason for the same, and to this he replies, “Yaar, aaj meine usko dekha”

Tarun, “Usse matlab”??

Manav, “Ussi train wali ko”…

Tarun, “Jiski tu sirf aanken dekh paya tha, chehra dekhne ke liye taras raha tha (desperate to see her face, he meant)

Manav, “Yaar, aaj meine uska chehra dekha, usne mujh se baat bhi ki”……this gets tarun all excited to ask a chain of questions like who is she, what’s he name, where does she live, etc…..

Manav, “Nahi puch paya, yaar”………… “But why”, asked Tarun and Manav replied, “Arre Tarun, kaise puchta yaar, sharm aa rahi thi mujhe uske samne khade rahne mei; (he was embarassed to stand in front of her) is, is halat mei gaya tha; agar kuch bolta nah toh mawali samjhti muhje, aur waise bhi naam puch ke mein karta kya…..use raaste toh mujhe jana nahi hai”

Tarun, “ Raaste par toh tu nikal chukka hai, ab bekaar ka drama matt kar;……pasand karta hai naa tu usse (manav is silent) ….chal fir uska thikana dundte hai”

Manav, “Yaar, tarun kya bol raha hai yaar tu”

Tarun, “Yaar, mein chahe job hi kahu, tu chahe kuch bhi bol, kitni bhi baar bol,……….lekin tere chehre se saaf zahir ho raha hai kit u kya chahta hai”. “Yaar Tarun chahne se kya hota hai” says Manav…………just repeating that what’s the meaning of thiking of what he cannot get and blah blah……finally saying, “Toh kya hua ki who meri zindagi mei nahi hai, meri aankhon mei toh hai nah who. Jab bhi chahuga aapni aankhen band kar lunga; sapne tutne se acha hai who palkon mei hi ghar kar le”.

Next scene, at Archana’s house it’s an atmosphere of tension; Manju again thinks that all of this happened because of Archana and decides to make her life a living hell..

Let’s see what happens next…….!!!!

16^th June

In this episode, both parents of Archana discuss on what happened at the wedding; as they go to sleep she starts crying, thinking all what was said to Archana. In the morning, she wakes up to see Archu again to her routine work; she thinks “don’t these things affect Archu or she has adjusted her life to all sufferings”. She helps Archana in the kitchen where she observes that her mom had been crying all night and so consoles her. Then she takes her niece school.

Again a lady, neighboring Archana takes on the same topic and tells her how this could affect Archana’s marriage prospects……this overheard by Vinod (Archana’s bro)…..leading to another argument with his wife Manjusha, who like her mother blames Archana for the calling off of Ajit’s marriage.

After what happened with Archana at Ajit’s wedding her father tries to change the view of his wife, of finding a rich, educational boy for Archana; and so takes on the responsibility of her marriage and says that whom ever i choose for he may not suit your conditions but Archana will be happy with him; at this her mother gets worried.

Tarun and Manav going to work when they stop at a signal and Manav notices Archana (dropping her niece at school) and as soon as tarun hears it, he takes a u-turn to follow her and see her stopping at a store – tarun notices her to be the same girl he saw at saree store(mall), at this Manav says that he 1^st saw her on the road, then, in the train and then at the coffee shop…….tarun all excited what man “baar baar milna, its all Kismat Connection”; after she leaves, he very quickly goes to the same store to enquire about her and finds out that she lives nearby.

Again, a convo between Archana’s parent’s about her marriage…….its interrupted by a call for Archana’s father at the neighboring kirana store…….the call is about a marriage proposal for Archana, hearing this her mom starts asking all questions and worries.

17^th June

A = Archana

A’s = Archana’s mother

The episode begins with Tarun asking Manav to get fresh and come along, and that too without telling him about the place they are going….Manav agrees.

At Archana’s home, her mother is all tensed thinking about the coming boy and prays for her daughter…..

Next, Manav again asks his friend about where he’s taking him….

Vinod reaches home to know about the proposal for Archana and talks to his mother, consoling her that if the boy is not suited according to her then they will not think further…

Next, in the car Manav thinking of all the moments he saw Archana (with a sweet smile on his face)…

The boy who arrives at Archana’s place for marriage is none other than Satish, (whom A’s mom liked for A); she’s surprised and tells Vinod about it……..he says may be God has answered their prayers, she thinks otherwise and decides to tell all truth about A’s education to the boy.

A’s mom tells Satish n his family that she doesn’t agree to this alliance……when asked for the refusal by Satish, she replies how up until now many proposals came for A but things didn’t go well as they found about A being only 8^th pass………and it always hurts A and her family.

Satish proves her wrong by telling her that he witnessed what happened at wedding , how A was being shouted at by Ajit’s mother but A didn’t utter a word instead she was trying to look out for her mother and family image…….also how he was impressed by how she takes care of her eight family members, always with a smile on her face and keeping in mind likes n dislikes of all. He continues, “my mother is also a house-wife and he knows that if house-wives stop what they do then no man in the house will be able to go out and earn….” A’s mom is all in tears and realizes she thought wrong about Satish.

Next, Tarun brings Manav here, at Archana’s place and tells him that she’s just like him in status n all. But instead he finds out about Archana’s alliance with Satish and is devastated (poor guy)……
