“Bikhre Moti,” authored by Shri Satyanarayan Upadhyay, is a heartfelt collection of poems that capture the silent whispers of the soul, emotions often felt but rarely spoken. Each poem in this book serves as a pearl, delicate yet powerful, drawn from the essence of life, society, and personal introspection. When strung together, these poetic pearls create a necklace of emotions that reflect the universal human experience. The book resonates with readers on a deep, emotional level, stirring their hearts and gently encouraging them to look within. “Bikhre Moti” is more than just poetry—it is a soulful journey that touches the spirit and invites quiet contemplation.
Shri Satyanarayan Upadhyay, the esteemed author, was born on 22 February 1944 in Pakardiha village of Basti district, now part of Siddharth Nagar. His academic journey in Sanskrit culminated with an M.A. from Gorakhpur University (now Deen Dayal Upadhyay Vishwavidyalaya), followed by a B.Ed. from Shivpati Degree College, Shohratgarh. He dedicated over three decades of his life to teaching at Chaudhary Charan Singh Inter College, Goyala, earning admiration for his exceptional teaching style and unwavering commitment to education. Beyond the classroom, his passion for literature and cultural activities nurtured countless students, many of whom brought laurels to their school through various competitions.
Retiring in 2012 after a glorious teaching career spanning nearly 35 years, Upadhyay Ji now brings his deep understanding of life, society, and human emotion to the literary world. “Bikhre Moti” is a testament to his sensitive soul and insightful mind. It is a book for every reader who seeks solace in poetry, who finds meaning in the unsaid, and who cherishes the quiet beauty of emotional truth.
