Opening Remarks

“On behalf of Naad Pargaas, I extend a warm welcome to all of you attending our online Makrand reading event — viewers joining from India as well as the USA. We are honoured to have participants from universities across India who have come together to celebrate this vibrant journey. Makrand is more than just a newsletter; it is a celebration of diversity and creativity that embodies the unifying core of multiple disciplines. It brings together art, philosophy, spirituality, science, technology and aesthetics, and through a carefully curated selection of writings it is not merely a repository of ideas but a confluence of wisdom and creativity, where the contours of tradition and modernity interweave into a dynamic discourse.”
