🪔 Organising Board

The program concluded in the presence of Awadhesh Kumar Gupta, Dr. Kavita Prasad and Dr. Mahalakshmi Keshari ji.

The program began with an introductory session by Dr. Mahalakshmi Keshari. She introduced the keynote speakers, guests, and the organization.

🌺 The program started with the speech of respected Prof. Kusum Sharma ji.

🔸 Thereafter, the organizer of the organization, Mr. Awadhesh Kumar Gupta, welcomed all the literature lovers present including the chief guests and introduced the organization.

After this, the respected Dr. Rajshree Laxman Tavare, as the first speaker, discussed Prasad's entire literary work. She explained each work from a psychological perspective. She said that every work of Jaishankar Prasad can be found grounded in psychology.

📖 While reading the works of Jaishankar Prasad, I discovered that Prasad's works contain more than just events, but behind these events, a psychological narrative of human inner conflict continues. While inner conflict, love, hatred, jealousy, anxiety, hope—all these psychological elements—run within the events, this forms a very broad landscape of Prasad's literature, which we experience as we read them. He observes, knows, understands, and portrays the subtle psychological elements operating within humans. This is what a psychologist does.

🔸 After this, as the second speaker, Professor Pitambar Das said that Jaishankar Prasad's literature is situated on the plane of psychological consciousness, which appears in two forms: one is inert and the other is conscious.

He said that when a person carries his intellect and heart together, the pace of his development is determined. This can be easily understood by reading Kamayani. It is the psychology of life. He solves problems through his thoughts. Similarly, Jaishankar Prasad also tried to resolve the various inconsistencies of society on a psychological level through literature, thus giving society a new direction.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

💬 Quiz Session

❖ As the first question, Kamakhya ji asked that,

“What is the difference between experience, perception, and consciousness?”

❖ Then Jaya asked the question,

“What is the conscious and subconscious mind?”

❖ And Prakash Rai ji asked the question,

"Prasadji, apart from Advaita Shaiva philosophy, which other philosophies influenced him? Name them."

The keynote speakers answered everyone's questions in a very satisfactory manner. Their answers satisfied everyone and provided guidance.

Along with the discussion of questions, Prof. Kusum Sharma also offered her thoughts on the given topic. She explained how Prasad's literature touches the mind of individuals on a psychological level, whether it's a female or male character. Everyone faces stress in life and tries to solve those problems. In such a situation, Prasad's literature paves a new path to solutions with energy.

🎙️ Conducting the program

Dr. Mahalakshmi Keshari successfully conducted the entire program. She highlighted all the points of the program and conducted it efficiently.

She also discussed the programs being organized on Prasad ji and stated that Prasad ji's literature truly provides a new psychological direction for the public. If his literature is studied seriously, it truly solves many of life's problems. Therefore, we should read Prasad's literature as much as possible.

🌺 Finally, before concluding, Dr. Mahalakshmi Keshari said that she is constantly striving to elevate Prasad's institution to even greater heights and that more excellent work will be done on Prasad literature in the future. With these words, she declared the program closed. @all

🖋️ Keynote Statement

Thereafter, the chief speaker Professor Surya Prasad Dixit, after a detailed and serious discussion on the literature of Jaishankar Prasad, presented his concise speech on the topic “Prasad qualities in Prasad's language” .

In his statement, he said that language has three qualities –

One is vigor, second is prasad and third is sweetness.

While explaining the quality of Ojas, he said that where the language is full of enthusiasm, driven by heroic sentiment and dominated by bravery, the quality of Ojas is visible there.

When there is excitement and fervor, the language changes accordingly. It is impulsive. It uses more double words. Aspirated sounds are often harsh.

At some places, there is an abundance of words from folk life or words coming from the Apabhramsha tradition.

Whenever we present or speak our dialogue in a state of anger, inspired by the contagious emotion of Veer Rasa, then the quality of Ojas becomes dominant.

After this, while discussing the element of elegance or sweetness, he said that it is inspired by the element of raga and in it love and beauty are more effective as subject matter.

Obviously, where there is love and beauty, there will be tenderness and elegance. There will be a special kind of charm. That vocabulary is very interesting, interesting, and sensitive.

Sensitivity is a key quality of language. Wherever there is an abundance of love or depictions of beauty in the context of elegance, this element of grace, or the element of elegance, becomes the primary quality of the language.

After this, while giving a detailed explanation of Prasad element , he said that the meaning of what is called Prasad element between the two has been misunderstood at some places.

Some people have interpreted the meaning of Prasad in simple terms. In reality, Prasad is not only simple. Prasad is something that brings joy to the mind. Just as sadness makes one sad, and depression makes one depressed, Prasad makes one happy.

That which is written in a happy mood and simultaneously conveys the same sentiment to the audience, the viewer, and the reader is the element of Prasad. It also contains elements of elegance and, at times, passion, but overall, a special kind of eloquence, called "saurus," predominates in Sanskrit literature.

He clarified that Prasad ji's language is basically a language full of such Prasad elements.

Along with this, he also gave a detailed explanation of the powers of words and finally clarified his statement by having a serious discussion on the entire literature of the great poet Jaishankar Prasad.

His speech provided an opportunity to the literature lovers present to understand the nature of Prasad ji's language, its sensitivity, beauty and literary dignity from a new perspective.

💬 Q&A Session

After the keynote address, a question and answer session was held.

In this sequence, Dr. V.B. Pandey asked the question –

“To what extent is Prasad ji's contribution in making Chhayavad Chhayavad?”

Chief guest Professor Surya Prasad Dixit answered this important question posed by the questioner in a very concise manner. He elaborated on Prasad's literary contributions and his role in the development of Chhayavad, leaving the audience satisfied.

The question and answer session made the dialogue meeting more lively and thought-provoking.

📖 Main statement and literary discussion 📖

━━━━━━━━━━━

Respected (Prof.) Kusum Sharma, while seriously discussing Prasad's literature, explained that Prasad's poetry provides new direction to society and creates the universe. Reciting an excerpt from Kamayani, she explained that Kamayani not only discusses faith, but also explains the power of women through faith, a special quality of women. She also explained their crucial role in society. Prasad's literature was a reflection of the state of society. He expressed his concerns about the future through his literature. He was a writer who never presented himself as a mere ostentation; rather, he set a great example through his literature that even great writers fail to achieve even in their long lives. Prasad, at a very young age, through self-study, taught people that if we have a passion for literature, we can create it under any circumstances.

The speech of respected Sarita Gupta ji started with “Mother, please give me the pearl of words in my speech”.

Thereafter, the organizer of the organization, Mr. Awadhesh Kumar Gupta, welcomed all the literature lovers present including the chief guests and introduced the organization.

Respected Dr. Himanshu Shekhar Singh ji as the first speaker-

To understand Prasadji's view on Indian identity, one has to look at the contemporary environment of 1909. India of 1909 was struggling in the shackles of darkness of slavery. This was the time when the British were teaching us that "you are savages" and you have no history. In such a difficult situation, Prasadji published "Indu Patrika" and he declared that a time which has no history has no identity. He also discussed linguistic identity. He clarified the concept of coordination and happiness through Kamayani. Along with this, coordination of knowledge, desire and action is identity, express your views on this.

As the second speaker, Acharya Jawaharlal Gupta 'Chaitanya' discussed Prasad's historical plays and spoke about their worldly and supernatural worlds. He also said that Prasad's literature is a literature of thought. The more we try to learn, the more deeply we will understand and understand his thoughts.

After this, in the question and answer session:

Ramnaresh Gupta, instead of posing a question, presented Prasad's ideological thinking. He said that a life-size statue of Prasad should be erected in Varanasi, and a book should be written on him. He also said that we should seriously reconsider Prasad's Kamayani.

Kanak Mishra asked, “How is Indian identity reflected in Prasad ji's journalism?”

Abhay Singh ji asked, “We see in Dhruvaswamini that very revolutionary questions like liberation and empowerment of women, their remarriage are visible to us and on the other hand, Shraddha of Kamayani is seen as the embodiment of surrender and devotion, so is there any contradiction in this layered understanding of Prasad ji or are these two different stages of development of women consciousness?”

The keynote speaker and Sahitendu Ji answered all the questions in a very satisfactory manner. Their answers provided guidance to everyone.

Thereafter in the Kavi Sammelan session:

After sharing his thoughts on Prasad, Ashok Kumar Goyal presented the verse “The identity that was fading away on this land of the country. The light of bravery has shone on the new head of the nation”.

After that, Dharam Singh Chakravarty presented the poem “If he decides to suppress the demons, then your Murari Krishna will come to help you.”
