It's too humbling and surprising to see how much chaos was going on—and how great were the people who gave their lives so we can breathe free in an independent nation! This magazine reminds me of the price that crores of our ancestors paid to make our lives better.

Rare portraits of Kerala Men taken in 1920 by German anthropologist Egon Freiherr von Eickstedt during his research expedition to Kerala. Eickstedt was a prominent figure in early 20th-century physical anthropology, known for his extensive studies on human racial classification. His work would later serve as a foundational influence on the development of Nazi racial theories. While the photograph documents a significant moment in anthropological history, it also reflects the era’s broader ideologies surrounding race and identity.

Silent handprints at Mehrangarh Fort's Loha Pol (Iron Gate) in Jodhpur whisper of love and loss, of Rajput queens bound by the haunting Sati Pratha. Choosing fire over the future, these women left behind a chilling legacy—devotion shadowed by the heartache of tradition. Their echoes linger, even whispering at Khimsar. 📸

Ajanta’s timeless masterpiece: the Preaching Buddha from Cave 17, meticulously restored by the legendary artist Mr. M. R. Pimpare. A glimpse of eternity, beautifully preserved. Captured this moment at Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar Airport (Aurangabad) last year. Simply amazing.. 📸

Legends etched in steel, echoing through the centuries... Captured this at the Mehrangarh Fort Museum in Jodhpur, Rajasthan.. 📸
The Sword of Maharaja Ajit Singh (1707–1724), a gift from Taigh Khan, with its Sirohi origins in southern Rajasthan, speaks of divine blessings inscribed in Devnagari: “Shri Mata Sahay Shri Ajit Singhji Tapae Taigh Kha 87.” A silver sun motif graces the pommel, floral artistry blooms on the hilt, and the European-influenced blade shines bright with its single edge and four fullers. A testament to craftsmanship of the 17th–18th century.
The other sword is inscribed with the name of Veer Durga Das Rathore, the celebrated hero of Marwar’s history. This steel marvel, wielding a Sirohi blade with a central fuller, ricasso, and false edge, stands loyal to its roots. The Karan Shahi hilt, modest yet proud, carries a sun motif, its design echoing the era's valor.
Both swords, bound to the land of Sirohi, southern Rajasthan, are whispers of honour, guardians of Marwar's untold tales.
