Tajender Singh Luthra TJ @LuthraTj is a poet of Hindi and a translator for English. He is a spontaneous poet. Most of his stimuli come from his unconscious mind. Thus, he doesn't compose poems around a particular theme either. His poems hover around struggles of a common man, his deep philosophical worldview and feelings of love from various perspectives.

At the process level, he loves self-examination to create poetry. And here, he doesn't become a fence sitter, place others at the center, and comment from the ringside. Instead, he loves to be the center and allow others to watch his vulnerability. Consequently, he feels the contradictions between his  personal values and his private life. These dilemmas sometimes brew a heady poem, and other times, they heals the wounds inflicted by his inherent contradictions. 

His first poetry collection - ‘Assi Ghat Ka Bansuri Wala’ - in the Hindi language was published in 2012, and the second one - 'Ek Naya Ishwar' has just been released. His poems have been accepted and published in influential American Literary Journals -  New York Quarterly, Lammergeier, New Plains Review, Voices, Meniscus and Wingless Dreamer.
