Some of you may remember Rasool. My guardian, and the one who brought Kashmir to me. I had written about him more than a few times. But for the ones who might not have heard about this Birdman, this magic man, must read this first.
Remember me with a Lotus: Memoirs of Heaven and Birds in Kashmir
But if you have skipped and are reading this. Let me please request you to meet him first yourself.
You must have known that for some time i had been meaning to do something for Rasool. Not because i must but more because his life is more important than most. As he knew, he understood how valuable, how important others lives are. He loved, protected and cared for the lives of those who were left to fend for themselves. He saved the birds and all nature beings as his own.
For me, to find his work and a small bird park in a region marred by Bullet sounds and all kind of violence was a revolution in itself. For local children and many others he is someone really rare whom they can look up to; the only light.
Kashmir has been a volatile place for past three decades and if we consider these circumstances he is a hero to me. To set an example of love and compassion. Not that so many others who do are not but at least in Kashmir he is amongst the only one. And I have tried to help him as little as i can but this time he needs more than one heart.
He is not well. And, this week as we prepare to leave 2021, i want to request my Road to Nara family here and anyone who can, to help him stay well and stay relevant.
He needs our help.

Anita, he was very, very organised. To an extent i have never been impressed(as one normally doesn’t) how he used to make his bed, sometimes even mine when i stayed with him to putting anything, making food, pressing sandwiches- he was inspiring even in the smallest of details.
