आ. रति जी

कृत्या के अंक लगातार देख रही हूँ और आश्चर्य भी करती हूँ कि कैसे इतना कर पा रही है आप. हर अंक नई ऊँचाईयों को छूते लगते है. देश विदेश का साहित्य, कला, संस्कृति सब की झलक इतने कम स्थान में.

अन्धकार, आतंक और अविश्वास से उपजी पीडा को बहुत ही सशक्त तरीके से उद्धत करता है आपका सम्पादकीय. एलिसा बैगिनि की इतालवी, हीरेन भट्टाचार्या की असामिया, मौ. जलालुद्दिन और अरुणिमाला की काश्मिरी कविताएं और सिंगोनिया सिंगोने का आलेख पिछले कुछ अंको की उपलब्धिया है.

अंतर्राष्टिय उत्सव का वर्णन सम्मोहित करता है.

अनेक शुभकामनाएं

Dear, dear Rati,

I am reading everyday a little of your last Kritya about your Poetry Festival Kritya 2010: it is so interesting and beautiful. As usual you get great results! The main object of this Festival is so real, because now so many people are moving away from their original countries and still they remaim tied to their origins. For Jewish people, diaspora is a over 2500 years of history, but now it is a common event and it is important to write poetry about it. It is a pity that I could not afford to come to your Festival, because this year it was particularly interesting for me. Maybe you remember that my wife is working everyday on this problem in Italy, since millions of people come from everywhere, including India. I shall keep reading your Kritya, a little everyday!
Your are again a wonderful person
Your true friend

Dear teacher,
I could not come and attend the Kritya Poetry Fest in Mysore due to
many official reasons, thou my heart was always with the moments of
the Fest.
I believe, it was a great success to your expectation.

I missed it , my apologies.
Warm regards,
Qudsi

Dear Rati:

Thank you again for your kind invitation. It was very good organised festival, I enjoyed it very much.

In other hand, I thought would see the Italian poet, Elisa Biagini, but I didn’t. After Kritya I wrote her a letter, and I knew it wasn’t for her possible for labour reasons…she was angry (and sad) for that. I hope the next year she can be in Kritya.

Now, I am in Vienna again. I need to solve many personal and professional issues. Later I write you about this idea to publish one book of mine in Hindi…, At the moment…I would like to have the Hindi translations in word, if could be possible.

Thank you for everything you did in Mysore for me.

Enrique, from Vienna

dear rati

i just realised today, that i never replied to this email of yours. thank
you for your kind words. we enjoyed the festival very much, meeting
interesting new people, and also being in india again. and mysore was a
pleasant place to stay.

it was great to see you again, to help out and to work with you more
intensely this time. i felt that in general everything ran very smoothly
and fairly calmly. thank you once more for all your hard work in
organising the festival.
would like to send you something new for the magazine sometime. and
don't forget about my suggestions for doing some creative writing
workshops, either at the next kritya festival, or in some other way at
some other time. it might add yet another new dimension...

talking about dimensions, another suggestion: what about adding music and
poetry again at the next kritya...? poetry and art, film, music...

To the Editors,

As a former contributor to your journal, I thought you¹d be interested
in knowing that in December of 2009 Diminuendo Press launched the title of
my poetry collection: EVERY CROW IN THE BLUE SKY.

My web site is: www.everycrowinthebluesky.com

I¹ve received extremely favorable responses so far in the UK, but I¹ve
found it next to impossible to find someone to review the book in this
country. I¹m enclosing a copy of the book¹s introduction written by a
professor at Sheffield University, UK. I hope you¹ll do me the honor of
passing along this information.
Sincerely,
Burgess Needle

The Editor, Kritya Your choice of Osvaldo Sauma's poem The Woman Dances is wonderful. I found something like Souma finds it in his poetry. I call it a true poem as it has able to make inroad into my heart. There are many who fill the pages with dead words in the name of poetry but only with the sole intension of material gains. They do not sustain in the world of poetry for long. Me like readers ought to be indebted to you for presenting with a bunch of good poems. Many thanks for the noble efforts. Sekhar RoyDear letters!

Dear Rati,


First let me thank you very much for your hospitality, your kindness, and
especially for your book.
I told you that right after meeting you I had that strong feeling for you as
if you are my sister, and I meant it. I can't explain it. I have never felt
this way. I only know that somehow we are deeply connected from long ago,
that we have already known each other very closely once, known and loved as
sisters do.
The festival you have organized was an excellent example for the complete
measure of good poetry, good spirit and mood, good environment and good
friendship. Mysore University, and especially CIIL, was a very good place to
host the festival and it had inspired both the participants and the
audience. Once again, thank you for a wonderful experience which enriched me
and offered me a better understanding of what good poetry is all about.
As always, I have enjoyed my staying in India - especially in this case of
the Kritya Poetry Festival. I loved Mysore very much and I will definitely
come again for it. Each visit deepen my love and appreciation to you, the
Indian People and Culture. I am already looking forward to my next arrival.
Meanwhile please tell me in which language you write originally so that I
will try to find here in Israel an acknowledgeable translator for your
beautiful poems.
Looking forward to hear from you soon again,
love
diti
