काव्य के राजपथ पर मेरे दो कदम

Abstract

In the reflective autobiographical paper "Kāvya ke Rājpath par Mere Do Kadam", Tarashankar Pandey explores his personal journey as a poet writing in Sanskrit. The essay offers a heartfelt recollection of his early days, acknowledging the guidance of his guru, the foundational literary exercises he undertook, and the range of emotions—both uplifting and challenging—that accompanied his creative path. The author not only reflects on his inspirations and inner struggles but also provides a comprehensive list of his poetic works composed over the course of his life. Through this introspective narrative, the paper presents a broader portrait of the life of a contemporary Sanskrit poet in the 21st century, highlighting the sentiments, struggles, achievements, and relevance of Sanskrit literary practice in the modern world. The work stands as both a personal memoir and a testimony to the continued vitality of Sanskrit poetry today.
