Poem
Patradoot or The Messenger32 /Many English version by Ravindra K Kapoor Originally written in Hindi by my Late father Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor DESCRIPTION OF MY HOUSE You will find a small simple temple, In front of my house, dear letter, And you would be fascinated to look, At the beautiful statue of Lord Shiva*. The simplicity of this small temple, Would resemble like a simple hut, Free from rich man’s pomp and show, Its beauty would fascinate you, dear letter. All the devotees of this temple, decorate it with care, And with great devotion, they worship Shiva everyday, And happily they accept, what ever Prasad* they get, As a token of blessings of Lord Shiva, dear letter. On the left of that temple, you would find, dear, My simple dwelling house, decorated with love, While entering in the compound, you will find, All around there, green plants and lovely creepers. Ravindra to continue in 33… Kanpur India 30th August 2010 Clarifications: • *Lord Shiva. Shiva means Perfection of Truth, Beauty and completeness. He is blessed with the powers of creation and destruction of the entire universe as per Hindu mythology. • *Prasad. Hindi word means what ever is offered by devotees to their favorite Gods and Goddesses in the form of fruits and sweets etc a part of it is distributed among the devotees as blessings of God is called Prasad.

He wrote Patradoot in Hindi, when he was kept in Faizabad Jail for quite a long time. The Epic was written as a gift for my mother and it was sent to her secretly from Faizabad Jail. He was imprisoned by the British, as he was fighting for India's freedom under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. He was imprisoned many times during 1920 to 1947. After India’s independence as a true follower of Gandhi Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor left active politics and devoted rest of his life in writing easy mass literature and wrote many Dramas, Poetry books, epics. All his other literary works were mainly written from 1955 to 1990. He left this mortal world in 1994.
