How Our ‘Guzishta’ Shapes Decisions in Our Future

What does it mean to reflect on the 'guzishta' — the past?

In this episode of Urdunama, hosted by Fabeha Syed, we delve into the Urdu word guzishta, which carries with it memories, lessons, and a touch of nostalgia. Through evocative poetry and timeless stories, we explore how the past shapes our present and how poets and philosophers have grappled with its enduring presence. Join us for a poetic journey into what it means to look back and find meaning in all that’s passed.
