Welcome to Taj Mahal Review June 2014!  No doubt,  the TMR  for several years  has tried its best to promote  contemporary creative poets and artists. This issue includes poems, haiku, short stories and artwork by both famous and  unknown  creative artists across the globe. I have always endeavored  to select  for TMR only those poems that reveal the poet’s passion for Truth and Beauty in an impassioned language.  
Some of the poems included in this issue reveal  poststructural attitude. We all know that structuralism was based on the main premise that the structure of human world can be well understood by the structure of language. But during 1960s, the post structural authors,  philosophers raised doubts about the validity of the language itself to unravel the mysteries and obstinate questionings about our universe. Foucalt aptly remarked that god was crumbling under our feet. The fact is that The poststructural authors are attracted by themes like Marxism, feminism, Nihilism and anarchism.
It is very sad to know that  two Nobel  Laureates died  recently.  Doris Lessing, the British Nobel Laureate, famous  for her immortal works “The Golden Notebook” and “The Grass is Singing”,  died aged 94 on November 17, 2013.  Her works are imperishable  due to “skepticism, fire and visionary power.” Another tragedy occurred as the Colombian Nobel laureate Gabriel García Márquez, one of the greatest and unique contemporary writers, passed away on April 17, 2014 at the age of 87.  His most famous  novel “One Hundred Years of Solitude” (1967) sold more than 50 million copies in more than 25 languages. He always felt that being awarded Nobel prize would be a catastrophe because his private life would be severely invaded. I along with Karunesh Agarwal and Cyberwit staff express my deep condolence at this great loss to their families. 
I am highly indebted to all creative artists and poets included in this edition of TMR.  The fact is that without their generous support and kind cooperation this  publication would never have been possible. Many sincere thanks again for their kind help.

It is a great pleasure to acknowledge, with a very deep sense of gratitude, the cooperation and help of  the creative artists included in this edition. I am so grateful to the authors included in the December 2013 Taj Mahal Review. In this issue I have done my level best to include excellent contemporary artwork, modern and postmodern creative writing including poems, haiku, book reviews and several other interesting features.
Since the inaugural issue of this journal devoted to Art and Poetry, I have been receiving a very large number of  poems, short stories, art work, paintings and photos. The decision to publish is fundamentally a decision to publish the best. No doubt, TMR is trying its best to bring modern poems to poetry lovers and new readers across the world. 
Great poetry always expresses vital truth using ‘the best words in the best order’ in simple and natural style. “A poem begins with a lump in the throat, a home-sickness or a love-sickness. It is a reaching-out toward expression; an effort to find fulfillment. A complete poem is one where the emotion has found its thought and the thought has found the words” (Robert Frost). 
Congratulations to Alice Munro, the famous Canadian short-story writer, for wining the 2013 Nobel prize in literature. Her ‘mastery of the form’ and ‘finely tuned storytelling’ are amazing and most admirable. 

Welcome to Taj Mahal Review June 2013! This multicultural issue reveals a comprehensive collection of poems, short stories, haiku, book review and artwork by creative artists across the globe reaching a worldwide audience. I trust that these poems will move our heart and soul due to sharpened sensibilities and heightened imaginative feeling. Several poets seem to have liberated poetry from the shackles of classical deception and romantic waywardness.
In this latest issue of Taj I have included many haiku poets. The haiku in this edition, the most popular genre in the cotemporary world, show a new experience of a familiar situation. Haiku experience is intuitive, not intellectual. “There is no subject whatever that is not fit for haiku (Basho)”. We need to write fresh and exciting haiku, moving beyond restricted theme of kigo to interact with modern sensibility.
I along with Karunesh Agarwal and Cyberwit staff offer my deep condolence at the sad death of Albert Russo’s mother. A very admirable and memorable fact is that she had a deep passion for reading poetry. We pray to God to grant peace to the bereaved family.
It was very shocking to know that Oklahoma tornado killed at least 51 people including 20 children. I express my deep condolence at this monster tornado devastation to the families suffering this great loss.I am full of deep gratitude to all the creative artists whose help and kindness greatly inspired me in this work of editing ad selecting. There is no doubt that I look forward to receiving your cooperation in the future issues of Taj and thank you again.

Welcome to Taj Mahal Review December 2012! This latest issue includes a comprehensive selection of most remarkable artwork, poems, haiku, short stories, book reviews by authors across the globe. No doubt, the Taj represents quality and variety. Cyberwit is committed to the promotion of creative writings and artwork world-wide. The objective is to promote Peace and Brotherhood among nations by publishing the very best poems from all over the world. This enables us to gain insight into so many cultures from so many voices.
There is no doubt that Poetry “opens the door which leads to the soul” (Henry Miller). P.B. Shelley in his immortal essay A Defence of Poetry aptly remarks that future generations always appreciate excellent poetry: “In the infancy of the world, neither poets themselves nor their auditors are fully aware of the excellence of poetry: for it acts in a divine and unapprehended manner, beyond and above consciousness; and it is reserved for future generations to contemplate and measure the mighty cause and effect in all the strength and splendor of their union.”
Hearty Congratulations to Chinese author Mo Yan who has been awarded the 2012 Nobel prize for literature. He is the first Chinese writer ever to win the Nobel prize in literature. The Swedish Academy acclaimed his works for merging folk tales with “hallucinatory realism”. Mo Yan aptly remarks: “Some may want to shout on the street, but we should tolerate those who hide in their rooms and use literature to voice their opinions.”

Welcome to Taj Mahal Review June 2012! This issue includes poems, short stories, literary criticism, book reviews, artwork by international artists, and many other interesting features. I hope this massive collection of poems and short stories will reach a worldwide audience. This well-planned and meticulous publication extends the hand of friendship in the true spirit, across the continents. 
Our aim is to promote contemporary creative writing and artwork for Peace and Brotherhood across diverse nations. I have included several new authors, lesser known and also absolutely unknown writers for this June issue. The creative artists whose works appear in this edition are selected because of their fresh and true ideas. 
It will be very good if we refrain from irreverent criticism of authors. John Keats (1795-1821), one of the greatest Romantic poets who is often compared with Shakespeare due to his phrases charged with a great intensity of imagination, was vehemently criticized by John Gibson Lockhart in Blackwoods Magazine: “The phrenzy of the “Poems” was bad enough in its way; but it did not alarm us half so seriously as the calm, settled, imperturbable drivelling idiocy of Endymion.” 
This vituperative and utterly irreverent criticism was quite unjustified. We should not forget that Keats wrote some of the greatest odes, comparable to nothing except Shakespeare’s greatest poetry . One example is the concluding lines of Ode on a Grecian Urn” ‘Beauty is truth, truth beauty’ - that is all / you know on earth, and all ye need to know”. Keats is a Shakespearean poet due to his ‘negative capability’. I would be failing in my duty if I don’t express my sincere gratitude to all creative artists and poets included in this edition. The truth is that without their generous support and kind help this publication would never have been possible. Many many thanks again for their kind cooperation.

This issue not only includes some of the most admirable poems by the contemporary writers, but also haiku, short stories, art work, book reviews, articles about literature and, self improvement, immortal quotes, startling literary facts, and many other interesting features. Hope you might like this latest edition of Taj Mahal Review.While including haiku, I have tried my best to include such haiku that don't blindly adhere to the 5-7-5 pattern. Ban'ya Natsuishi, the greatest modern haiku poet, aptly says that muki haiku and non-seasonal poems reveal a new style of expression in contemporary haiku.
It was a day of great joy when Doc Drumheller from New Zealand visited my residence. I along with Karunesh Kumar Agrawal met him for the first time in 2009 in the 5th World Haiku Association Conference and The Druskininkai Poetic Fall in Lithuania, where he became the New Zealand Ambassador to the Republic of Uzupis. It was a proud moment for me to release his latest haiku collection In Transit. He is a marvelous poet and an extraordinary creative artist. He recited some of his best haiku at Cyberwit office. We discussed about the increasing popularity of the haiku genre.
I am highly thankful to my well-wishers and friends who provided me their full cooperation and help to bring out Dec. 2011 issue of Taj Mahal Review. I am quite grateful to all poets, haiku writers and creative artists included in this latest issue for their warm support and help. This issue would not have been possible without their kind cooperation.
