Children" (for teachers and other adults). 3) "Using Stories as a Teaching

आपको किसी कहानी
कहने वाले तक लेकर आयी है
तो आपका सोचना
ग़लत है। कहानियों
को कहने के लिये
किसी ज़ुबान के
सहारे की ज़रुरत
नहीं है वे तो हमेशा ख़ुद
ही ख़ुद को कहती
आयी है। ये तो उन
ज़ुबानों का दर्द है जो
कहानी का बहाना
लेती हैं अपना
दर्द बताने के लिए। यदि आपको
फिर भी मेरी बात
पर यक़ीन नहीं
है तो आइये फिर मिलते
हैं कभी। मैं यक़ीन
के साथ कह सकता हूँ कि मुझे
सुनकर आपको दर्द
होगा और आप भी मजबूर हो उठेंगे अपनी
कहानी कहने को। जो मैं हूँ बस
वही मैं नहीं हूँ।
मैं किताबों में
बंद हूँ, Amazon और Flipkart सोचते
हैं वो मुझे बेच
रहे है। मुझे कभी-कभी हंसी
आती है ये सोच कर
मुझसे भी कोई फायदा उठा सकता है
क्या? आज तक ख़ुद
से कोई फ़ायदा
मुझसे तो उठाया नहीं
गया। ख़ैर! बंदे को
लोकेश गुलयानी
कहते हैं। सात (7) किताबें
लिखने का गुनाह कर
चुका हूँ। पेशे
से जनसम्पर्क
सलाहकार हूँ। शब्दों, जज़्बातों
से खेल कर जब उकता
जाता हूँ तो सोचने
लग जाता हूँ फिर
कोई नयी कहानी
पहले से गहरा ज़ख्म देने के लिये। बुला कर मुझे
सुनने का ख़तरा
उठाना चाहते हैं
तो नीचे दिये नंबर और ईमेल
पर संपर्क करें। *** If you're here for good stories then you could be wrong. Stories doesn't require any storyteller to tell them. They are capable enough to express themselves. It is the pain of the storyteller, who needs help of a story to vent it out. If you don't believe then let's meet someday, I am sure once you'll hear me out then you'll be compelled to tell your story too. What I am, is exactly, what I am not. Amazon and Flipkart, they think they are selling my stories and making profit out of it. Sometimes I wonder and laugh that how can anyone can make profit out of me, when I myself ain't capable to do so? I am Lokesh Gulyani. Author of 07 Hindi-Fiction and Poetry books. By profession, I am a PR consultant. I live in Jaipur on weekends and I work in Bhopal on weekdays.
