Get hold of Amar Chitra Katha. Premchand. Tagore. Muktibodh. Read Vivekananda. Read Rajaji & Chetan Bhagat. Read Mahabharata. Read P.L. and read Ba Ba Borkar. Read Bhasa. Read Tukaram and the Quran. Read Tulsi and Kabir. Read poetry. Read short essays. Read long white papers. Read your old emails and read your first love letter. Read graffiti on the walls. Read handbills glued on a street lamp. Read everything you get hold of. Look for a Guru. Give him a nickname: Kabir. As per Kabir's instructions. Read over and over again. Read the entire anthology. Sometimes read the subtext.
As Kabir says, Pothi Padh Padh Kar Jag Mua, Pandit Bhayo Na Koye Dhai Aakhar Prem Ke, Jo Padhe so Pandit Hoye. There is the secret.
Now read again - all kinds of words.
