The Light Beyond

Between Light and Learning.

In a quiet schoolyard in Jodhpur, a child slips through light and shadow unaware of the poetry his movement writes. The worn wall and fractured staircase echo a truth seen across India: even in the most modest spaces, childhood carries the shape of Hope.
