Along with mind, heart, discretion and contemplation, stronger emotions keep stirring and creative emotions. Keep flowing in. By nature I am very reflective and sensitive and keep thinking even in sleep. The feeling of doing something new in the field of literature often arises, in this series a curiosity arose that something new should be done in literature. India is a bouquet of diversity in which there is abundance of colour, form, language, religion, caste, clothing etc. as well as variety of food items. This diversity inspired a different creation, as a result this book emerged. ‘Khichdi’ is the national medicinal prasad, dish, dish of the country of India which is the promoter of culture, civilization, natural prosperity, justice and truth and which is the guiding light of the world. The components of this Khichdi are rice, various pulses, mango slices. , turmeric and asafoetida, disease resistant, salt and ghee along with garlic which brings salivation and medicinal spices.

It is the natural nature of human being to do something, to be active, to be in the company of people, to attract attention etc. Like normal humans, these qualities are also included in my personality and due to this, despite having poor eyesight, I am unable to stop myself from writing something as per my capability and capacity. Probably, this is the abundant blessing, grace and gift of the divine powers.
