Zero point starts when life comes to a full circle, it’s a new beginning—inclusive, compassionate, universal, tolerant, accommodative and patient. It’s the starting point and the end point at the same time! Zero includes all the numbers, being null and void in itself, if miscalculated and misconstrued. Zero is all about avoidance of delusion and acceptance of life. Zero is absolute, beginning, end, paradise, abyss, holistic, nihilistic, absurd, romantic. It’s difficult to contain all the finer shades of zero, because zero is the shape of the Brahman. For Nandini, her sixth poetry collection Zero Point is a clean slate, she writes with an all-embracing poetic vision, like a mighty river that carries in its sweep numerous tributaries. She denies no knowledge, excludes nothing, ventures truth in all its mysterious complexity. She is a poet of many moods, and her work is a mosaic of varied concerns—of classicism and modernity, of radical obligation and romantic love, of assertion and renunciation recognized for the dignity of the humane, for the piety of human pain, the productive authority of the written word and the inviolability of individual faith. Her poetry is her social-mobility-platform, with the nimbleness of her touch, penetrating through wanton sophistication. Precisely, Zero Point does not preach at you. It simply accepts, embraces you.
