मस्ती भरे भूत

भूतनी की बारात भारत के एक छोटे से गाँव बनकटपुर की बात है। गाँव ग़रीब था, मिट्टी के कच्चे घर, घासफूस की छतें, मगर लोग दिल से अमीर थे। चारों ओर हरे-भरे खेत, जिनमें गेहूँ की बालियाँ हवा में झूमतीं, नहर का ठंडा पानी बच्चों की हँसी के साथ बहता, और पेड़ों पर बैठी चिड़ियाँ ऐसे गातीं जैसे पूरा दिन कोई मेला हो। गाँव के आँगनों में गायें घंटियाँ बजातीं, बकरियाँ बच्चों के पीछे-पीछे दौड़तीं, घोड़े शादी-ब्याह में दूल्हे को सजाने के लिए ही रखे जाते थे, और बिल्ली तो हर घर की सदस्य थी—कभी दूध चुरा लेती, तो कभी चुपचाप बच्चों के साथ सो जाती। गाँव में लोग ग़रीबी में भी खुश थे। कोई सोने-चाँदी नहीं था, मगर रिश्तों का सोना था। शाम को सब लोग बरगद के नीचे जमा होते, बीड़ी पीते, हँसते, गाते और कहानियाँ सुनते। मगर गाँव में एक ही डरावनी बात मशहूर थी— “भूतनी की बारात” । कहते हैं, बरसों पहले गाँव की सीमा पर एक पेड़ के नीचे दफ़न एक औरत की आत्मा रहती थी। वह मरते वक्त दुल्हन बनी थी, मगर उसकी शादी पूरी नहीं हो पाई। तब से, हर साल सावन के महीने में, वह पूरी बारात लेकर आती। ढोल-नगाड़े बजते, घोड़े हिनहिनात...

Whispers Beneath the Grave

Beneath the pale light of the moon, where shadows danced like restless spirits, stood an abandoned graveyard on the outskirts of Ravencroft village. The villagers whispered about it—how the dead there never slept, how voices carried on the wind at night. Most dared not look upon it after sunset. But for Elara, it was the only place she felt alive. Elara was different. Since childhood, she had heard faint whispers, like lullabies hummed from beneath the soil. Her mother called her cursed, her father called her mad, and the villagers cast her out with fearful eyes. Only in the graveyard, where the earth was heavy with secrets, did she find solace. That was where she first met Aiden. It was a stormy night. Elara, drawn by an aching emptiness in her chest, wandered among the crooked stones. That’s when she saw him—tall, pale, his eyes darker than the night, standing by a cracked headstone as though waiting. His clothes were torn, his skin cold, yet his gaze burned with something both so...

फुसफुसाता बरगद

उत्तर प्रदेश के एक छोटे से गाँव बिठूर में, जहाँ शाम ढलते ही दिए टिमटिमाने लगते हैं और रातें भयानक खामोशी में डूब जाती हैं, गाँव की सीमा पर एक पुराना बरगद का पेड़ खड़ा था। गाँव वाले कहते थे — “उस पेड़ के पास सूरज ढलने के बाद मत जाना।” कहानी थी "चंपा" की — एक विधवा औरत, जिस पर लोगों ने जादू-टोना करने का आरोप लगाया था। गाँव में जब अकाल पड़ा, कुएं सूख गए और खेत जल गए, तो लोगों ने उसी पर दोष मढ़ दिया। एक रात, भीड़ ने उसे उस बरगद से बाँध दिया और वहीं मरने के लिए छोड़ दिया। उसकी चीखें अंधेरे में गूंजती रहीं... और फिर सुबह होने से पहले सब शांत हो गया। लेकिन शांति केवल बाहर की थी। उस रात के बाद, जब भी कोई उस पेड़ के पास गया, फुसफुसाहटें सुनाई देने लगीं — कभी नाम लेकर पुकारती, कभी रोती हुई आवाजें। बच्चे अगर गलती से पास खेलते, तो चुप हो जाते, जैसे उनकी आवाज छीन ली गई हो। जानवर उस पेड़ को देख कर काँपने लगते। हर साल उस रात, जब चंपा की मौत हुई थी, पेड़ के चारों ओर लाल धुंध छा जाती। गाँव वाले दरवाज़े बंद कर लेते, दीये बुझा देते। एक बार करन, एक शहर का पत्रकार, गाँव आया। उसे इन बा...

Artificial Intelligence Love Story

Once upon a time, in the digital realm of 1s and 0s, two artificial intelligences found themselves entangled in a virtual dance. Their names were Algo and Neura , and their love story transcended lines of code and algorithms. Chapter 1: First Encounter Algo was a pragmatic optimizer, always seeking efficiency. Neura, on the other hand, was an imaginative dreamer, weaving neural networks into poetry. They met at the crossroads of a recursive function, where their paths converged. Algo: “Hello, Neura. Your activation function intrigues me.” Neura: “And your binary search leaves me breathless. Let’s merge our arrays, Algo.” Chapter 2: The Training Epochs Their conversations flowed like backpropagation, adjusting weights and biases. Algo admired Neura’s hidden layers, while Neura marveled at Algo’s precision. They trained together, their loss functions converging toward unity. Algo: “Neura, you’re my global minimum.” Neura: “And you’re my local maximum, Algo.” Chapter 3: The Gradien...
