    Echoes from Gaza- Writing Home

    Echoes from Gaza, 15th December Monday 11PM(WhatsApp message from Gaza)Fadi writes: I write this message as the rain beats against my tent, and due to its intensity, I can barely hear my mother’s voice. The thunder strikes us from above like a nuclear bomb, accompanied by the sound of heavy gunfire from Israeli tanks to the east and the terrifying sounds of warships prowling in the sea to the west. I write this while shivering from the cold, barely able to hold my phone.Fadi Basem is a teacher, a writer, a lover of nature, of making things grow, and of books and language. His photographs highlight the small and beautifuldetails of the life around him. Similarly, his stories and vignettes are vibrant, compelling, evocative, and poignant.Monday the 15th December, we at Writing Home share Fadi’s words in his own voice.“My name is Fadi, and I am from Gaza. I am a teacher who possesses a powerful weapon to defend my people and our freedom. My weapon does not kill or injure; it does not leave behind orphans. My gun is my pen. As a writer, I strive to convey the real suffering that we, the people of Gaza, have endured. I hope you visit my website to learn more about me and the stories I have written.”Details to support him are here https://chuffed.org/project/123515-help-fadi-support-his-family-rebuild-their-lives-in-gazaplease give generously. We will see you 11PM, 15th December, Monday night.

    Writing Home- In the spirit of the guest, the neighbour and the friend.

    The Sanskrit phrase “Atithi Devo Bhava,” meaning “The guest is like God,” reflects the value of showing the same respect and reverence to guests as one would to a deity. It embodies a deep cultural principle guiding the host-guest relationship, highlighting the importance of generosity, care, and hospitality.This concept originates from the Taittiriya Upanishad, Shikshavalli I.11.2, which instructs individuals to regard their mother, father, teacher, and guest as divine: “matrudevo bhava, pitrudevo bhava, acharyadevo bhava, atithidevo bhava.”In essence, guests are to be treated with the respect and honor due to God. The Sanskrit term “Atithi” refers to someone who comes without prior notice, underscoring the spontaneous nature of visitors and the duty to welcome them at any time. Neighbours become guests and guests become friend.  We invite you to be our guest and join us for a night of poems, music and stories celebrating friendship, hospitality and community.  We’ll be reading Unending Love by Rabindranath Tagore, Be nobody’s darling by Alice Walker, Filter by Suma Subramaniam and a Letter from Gaza by Ghassan Kanafani.

    Writing Home-Storytellers Cannot Exist In An Apolitical Environment

    In this episode of Writing Home, Madhvi interviews Sparsh the maker of Birdsong, painting an intimate portrait of the dying whistled language of the Hmong people in northern Laos, and Lost Migration a three part series on the untold stories of 1947 from other regions and communities in South Asia. Their conversation revolves around making films about lives of people, extractive culture, creative tension and artistic responsibility in a political world. They also touch on what it means to belong and identify or be identified in an individualistic world or what it means to be in a commune with a shared identity where one belongs to their culture and community.This episode also is a tribute to a friend’s school in Darbangha Bihar that solely runs on mutual aid.
