It is a memoir that is not just a statement of a person's death, but a celebration of a life that was filled with love, education, struggle, and introspection. Sometimes a personality lives beyond its lifetime - in thoughts, in words, and in that invisible line of memories that connects hearts. This book is a search for that line. It is dedicated to Kumari Chhaya, a teacher, writer and friend, who lit the light of words even in the silence of death. As she gazed into the darkest layers of cancer, literature became his companion. His pen not only turned pain into words, but also gave wings to hopes. This book is not just a document of her memory but a witness to the struggle, love, education and literary contribution of a woman who kept saying abhi baaki hai till the last moments of her life. One of his words still resonates with me: "I don't want to die, but I don't want to live. The little story of my life is about to end. " Hidden in this one sentence are his acceptance, discernment, and deep spiritual vision. In the pages of this book you will find the intimacy of the interviews, the shadow of her unfulfilled dreams, and the echo of the classes where he taught the children life, not just the subject. There will also be two-four from the poems that she was composing for her fifth book. It's a journey where as a reader you don't just read a story, but feel its beats.
