Lallesuri
Lalleshuri (LAL DED) of Kashmir has invited attention of a number of scholars throughout the
world. Her poetic compositions or VAAKHS as they are popularly called are the
extempore outpourings of a highly awakened YOGINI and exhibit high quality
poetry with a deep philosophical content.

Lalleshuri ---
On Pranayama
Pranayama is the control or regulation of `Prana' (breath).
All the functions of our body are directly or indirectly related to Prana.
It has been compared to and given the status of Brahma (the creator and
the supreme being) from which this entire universe has emerged.

After
her revelation out of a vast sheet of water, SATISAR, thousands of years before,
the valley of Kashmir turned to be a choicest spot for unknown long periods of
time for RISHIS and MUNIS throughout the world for meditation, TAPASYA and
acquiring exclusive spiritual powers in its cool a serene atmosphere.

A
matter for concern is the latest trend of displaced Pandits selling their
properties including their residential houses in Kashmir. No doubt, they

the aftermath.

That
our youth are displaying admirable qualities of head and hand in every field,
wherever they are, is a matter for great pride. Their sprinkling presence on the
highest positions of the corporate world throughout the globe is not a small
achievement and definitely an occasion to rejoice.

The
dream of return to our lost paradise (Kashmir) is not going to fulfill in
near future is a proved reality beyond doubt. All efforts made in this
direction have proved a failure but the craving is getting intense day by
day. The sweet fragrance of Kashmir is kicking and the need of the
hour is to devise ways and means that get us to the jackpot.

For
ages religion and spirituality has been a number one priority for common Indian
and it continues to be so. There is nothing that can distract the masses of this
land from this influence. India continues to be a staunch believer of Hindu
faith in spite of lots of negative inputs provided by modern westernized life
standards and culture.

Another
unfortunate development that has put the KP community on crossroads in the
post-migration period is the alliances of our youth outside community. It
is no secret that the new trend is working overtime in cutting the roots
of our cherished cultural heritage.
