Dear
Karunesh,
Many
thanks for the Taj Mahal review that has arrived safely
with me today in the
UK
. I was impressed with the physical quality of the book
which is much better than the current mass-produced
paperbacks. I will enjoy reading through it and I look
forward to dealing with you in the future. Many thanks
for your help.

Thank you for your good wishes. Your package arrived
yesterday and we are very pleased with the look and the
contents of your Taj Mahal Review. We hope that this
note finds you and your family in good health and
looking forward to the New Year.

The
Taj Mahal Review , obviously a labor of love and
language, reads like its beautiful cover, inviting me to
turn its pages. I'm
honored to have my story, "
America
's Child," included. Thank you, too, for my gift of
haiku, and for your good wishes.
I send mine right back to you.

Today I've received the Taj Mahal Review December 2007
which I ordered via cyberwit on the 18th of January
2008. I want to express my sincere gratitude, first of
all, for the publishing of my poem in this marvellous
book and, of course, for the quick delivery.
Hope
your publishing house continues to prosper and to bring
the ray of hope and happiness to the surrounding world.
I'm looking forward to our further collaboration as I
always have new poems to offer for publication and you
have a possibility to publish those that you consider to
be the best.

Ever
since I received your email asking me if I have received
the latest edition of your fabulous book yet, I've been
filled with great anticipation waiting for its arrival
in the mail, especially knowing that it contained some
of my work. Well, my Taj Mahal Review arrived yesterday
and I can't be more pleased, not only with my
contribution but with the other very interesting stories
that authors from all over the world have contributed.
It is truly a magnificent parlay of the human experience
that enlightens souls for better understanding and
acceptance of the many human conditions that make up the
different lives we lead.
Mr.
Karunesh, you truly are performing a great service with
your reflections and perspectives of the of the pain and
suffering that exists in different parts of the world.
May peace be with you as you continue to inspire the
good that is inside of us all. There will always be
those less fortunate that need hope and encouragement
for improving not only their lives but others as well.
Thank you.
Robert
William Braswell
couldn't
be more pleased. Yesterday, I picked up my copy of Taj
Mahal Review from the post office and it was a
joy to hold in my hands. I can't wait to get to
the writing inside - of course, I've already reread my
story! - and expect to find something worthwhile. It was
a pleasure working with you, and good luck with your
endeavors and future issues.

I
most happily received 4 of the new beautifully hard
covered TMR in perfect condition and very delighted to
see my endeavors so proudly published with many authors
of great and gifted talent. The others you’ve sent to
my family and friends will no doubt be one of the best
I’ve gifted for the holidays. The very creative Art
selection being a joyable bonus added to an already
diverse literary content and for such a reasonable cost
per copy. Please keep up the fine work you all are doing
for us to be read and expressed internationally.
My
sincere wishes to all for a Loving and Peaceful Life for
all on Earth
Louie

Thanks
for checking. I received it in excellent condition.
Thanks, and happy holidays.

I
did receive my hard cover copy, and it is beautiful! I
still have to go to the post office to pick up the
others, I wasn’t home to sign for them. I was lucky
when the other one came, I had come home for lunch that
day!
Kimberly
Raiser
I
received my Taj Mahal and as the usual it was GREAT! You
do such an excellent job of editing and publishing, it
is well worth the value. As always you also sent another
book of poetry which I enjoy and a Picture of a place in
India, again I appreciate all that you do, I give you my
highest praise and Think of all of you as family as well
as a business partner, Have a fantastic end of year, and
again highest regards and Thanks,

Hello
Karunesh! First, my apologize for the delay. My computer
had many problems. I love this! The book by María
Cristina Azcona is very lovely. I didn´t know her. She
is a wonderful writer and woman! I´m going to read her.
Thanks for all! Maybe, for the next edition I will send
a short story and an artwork.
Elizabeth
Pujalka
I
have received my copy of TMR and its lovely. I’m
enjoying reading it and was also impressed that my own
submissions had been marked by a bookmark in the copy
sent to me, the inclusion of a photo wishing me all the
best for the new year was also a really nice and
thoughtful gesture. I love the values of peace and
brotherhood of man that the TMR seeks to promote and
hope it goes from strength to strength. Warm regards,
Debs
Higginson
Hope
you are doing fine, as well. I did receive my copies,
and am very grateful for your speedy dispatch, and
delivery. All, who wanted a copy, and received one, are
very pleased. Particularly, the owner of the dog, Zowie,
and the grandmother of the child, Kristy. One other
inquiry, if you please. The fans of the singer, Clay
Aiken, who is one of my drawings you published, were all
excited about my drawing of him being published! Just
curious, have you received many unusual amount of orders
from different areas of different countries? His fans
are quite enthusiastic, and will purchase most anything
that has to do with him. Just curious, because the link
to purchasing your "Taj Mahal Review" June
2006, publication, has been posted at some of his
fans’ message boards.
Carliss
Mora aka Cezanne
Yes,
my copy came a week ago. Thank you. I’m glad to see
that I’m nearer to the front of the book this time.
;-) And by the way, I take both books with me during my
business travels and show them to potential clients.
Hopefully I can steer a few orders your way.
Steve

Your
June 2006 issue is even more impressive than the prior
two I’ve read. More stories, more poems, and I do
believe the paper is of a higher grade. I’ve already
read half the stories in this issue, and you and your
editor show discerning taste in choosing which stories
to publish. I thank you for including mine in such high
quality company.
Leon

I’ve
received all 4 HC TMR on 6/30 in perfect condition The
books binding and construction are of very high quality.
Its cover art by ‘LadyMagic’ is graphically
intriguing and colorful. My having read several hours of
its amazing content, eagerly, upon their arrival. I’m
more than thankful to you both for selecting my art,
poetry and storied Reflections. Having been published
with as many a worldly kindred spirit, has me all the
more humble and musely encouraged. My sincere
congratulations to all of Cyberwit staff for their
combined, creative efforts. June ’06 Taj Mahal Review
has surly evolved to become one of its own, unique
literary classic.
Louie
Levy
The
June issue of Taj Mahal Review arrived in good
condition. It sure is a "big" book. I have
given it a look through and it promises to be a good and
varied reading again. Thanks for including my poem. It
is nice to read from all those people all over the
world. Indeed one wonders why there is so much
misunderstanding when also books like this can be put
together. I also want to thank you for the extra book. I
wonder if you hand picked this one as it is from another
dutch woman. I did not read the whole book yet but her
poetry and the way she started writing in english,
resembles my own. What I read so far I liked a lot. And
guess what, she is from a town very near to where I
live. I wonder if you could get her permission to give
me an e-mail or other contact details. Or if I could
write her a short note through your publishing house if
you would be so kind to pass it on.

Dear
Santosh, first of all let me congratulate you on another
magnificent (June 2006) issue of TMR, it is a treasure
trove of literature and the hardcover book is
impressive. I also liked the artwork very much, it is
varied and original. This magazine should be given a
major award in the anglo-saxon literary arena. Did you
ever try to submit it for this purpose? I also want to
thank you Kumar, for your excellent review on Oh
Zaperetta! It warmed my heart inasmuch as people like
the series very much. Then too thank you for your own
Helicon chapbook. The antiterror poems are very telling,
full of empathy and justified anger, especially after
the bombs that wreaked so much carnage and havoc in
Mumbai. But these evil people sow hate and destruction
all over the world. Will there ever be a stop to their
madness? I really doubt it.
Albert
Russo
Yes,
I have received the June issue of TMR and as usual the
stories, poems and overall design are most impressive.
The cover design is particularly remarkable and the
length, nearly 500 pages, makes this edition an
outstanding bargain.
John
Cuetara
Yes,
I most certainly did receive June, Taj and it was, as
always a beautiful piece of literature and art. I am at

I
got the book so fast. I unwrapped it and I was so happy.
My art was very fine printed and choosen. And hole book
is well worth reading.

Thanks
much for the latest issue of Taj Mahal Review. What a
fine collection of literary gems! Looks as if I have my
work cut out for me! I hope things are well in your
corner of the world. Once again it is a privilege to be
counted among your stable of writers. Please continue.
WS
("Bill") Mayo
It
will take me awhile to get through all the stories and
poems! The people at my post office thought it was great
to receive something from India. My friend’s grandsons
inherited the packing box because they had never seen
stamps from India.
Ronda

I
have indeed received the June edition of The Taj Mahal
Review and I am delighted with it. It is exceptional in
every way. I hope to appear in future editions of this
world class publication.
Sandra

I
did receive the TMR June 2006 issue, containing my short
story - "JOURNEY TO THE CORNERS OF THE EARTH:
Encounter in a Chapultepec Forest". Thank you so
much. Your literary journal is exquisite, and I am so
proud to be published in such a distinguished
international literary journal. This has inspired me in
my literary writing. Hopefully, this will help me to
finish my doctoral dissertation. I am really impressed
with the different art pieces published in the art
section of your June 2006 issue. The paintings and
photos are so beautiful, so aesthetically touching and
meaningful. But I would like to make a helpful
suggestion to you. In light of the ongoing terrible
tragedy in the Middle East such as Lebanon, Israel, and
Palestine and other areas of the world, I would like to
recommend that you place more emphasis on literary
contributions that stress peace, justice, human rights,
and reconciliation. In Dr. Noam Chomsky’s brilliant,
charismastic visionary book - "Hegemony or
Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance" -
he articulates so eloquently that humankind is at a
crossroads in which if we do not something fairly soon
about the frightening trend towards violence like wars;
increasing destruction of the environment; ethnic,
religious, racial, and linguistic conflicts;
proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, mounting
militarization; globalization such as the spread of
neo-colonialism and imperialism, and so forth,
humankind/homo sapiens is faced with frightening
possibility of extinction, including the destruction of
our precious planet. I personally feel and believe that
the world is accelerating in that dangerous trend that
could ultimately result in an Armageddon; if we do not
do something drastically to reverse that trend that
could quite possibly spin out of control. In conclusion,
it is absolutely imperative FOR US to take the necessary
steps collectively to prevent that ultimate global
holocaust and make this a much more humane and blessed
world; and we DO have the power to do so collectively.
Thank you so much for your kind inquiry and friendship.
I appreciate your literary journal so much, and I do
hope to continue to contribute to it.

I
just received my copy of Taj Mahal Review in the mail
and wanted to write and tell you how beautiful it is.
Thank you so much for including my piece in with the
work of some truly gifted writers. I have been reading
the other stories and poems and enjoying them immensely.
Also, the second journal, Voice of the Phoenix, is
equally fascinating to read.

I
need apologize for my reaction to what I had first seen
of the cover online thinking that the best half of my
photo was cropped for the front cover. I love what
you’ve had done with the wrap around over the binding
and onto the back. The print quality finely compliments
the original. I’m very proud to have it appear on TMR.
Please feel free to forward me any comments given the
cover and, or my writing. Also honored to have 5 of my
favorite poems on 7 pages accepted and so finely printed
and formatted. Making it also available in hardcover
beautifully enhances its wonder filled content.The much
improved packaging resulted in all books arriving in
perfect condition. Packaging 6 TMR seems to be the
perfect size and weight for its safe handling enroute.
What with having my fussy portrait artistry commenting
Possibly enlarging your photo 2-3 X and insisting that
your printer improve its pictoral resolution. I like
your color photo in ‘Harvests’, Attractively
enlarged some will all the more compliment your
brilliant Editorials. Should I ever brave a voyage to
visit you all in India. I would have you all pose for a
deserving group portrait that would appear somewhere
within Cyberwits pages. just a few ideas ...out yonder
to ponder from out here in So. California
Suggestion;
It
would be very encouraging to have an ongoing ONLINE
‘Comment to Contributors’ page that we can read and
an email to thank the readers. Interactions will most
certainly encourage subscriptions and an opportunity to
make new friends. Hopefully, all efforts will help
TMR’s ‘Earthy’ Peaceful contents be judged by its
inviting cover. I’m delighted of having my photo art
embrace the front and back cover of your wonder filled
Dec’ 05 TMR issue. Appearing, are five of my poems,
proudly contented, among the many talented writers.
Cyberwit continues to dedicate and academically publish
worldwide for Peace, Empathy and Goodwill. Soulful
inspires that have its contributors and readers support
its premise for Earths Rescue. For as long I’m given
the spiritualness of mind and aging body, my sincere
efforts will strive to support its existence Thankful to
our Chief Editor, Dr Santosh Kumar, its entire staff and
productive facilities. Please help subscribe as loving
gifts for the New Year.

What
one knew on Thursday,
by Friday, with grace, another found out.
On Monday the first re-assesses,
by Tuesday both are in doubt.
But this questioning makes fail, only that work love
does not do.
Then, if, like the ‘..Review’ love senses its own
presence,
extent of good work shows equal love’s due.
I received, read the opening pages and dived-in here and
there in the Review, am quite glad to be part and plan
to spend quality time with.

I
just glanced thru it, but I am sure it is going to be a
great one to read... for those who like poetry and those
who like to read short stories.. I like to read both
since I used to write short stories too. I always give a
copy to an elderly lady who lives next door.. She loves
your publications and reads them from cover to cover and
then gives them to her children to read. Thanks
also for HELICON, Santosh’s book.. I am sure I will
enjoy it.
Luv,
Del
I
received the two books and was delighted to see how
beautifully you handled my work. From the attractive
covers to the inspiring content your project was
flawless. I’m honored to have been included in such an
excellent publication. Just wanted you to know that
everyone who sees Taj Mahal is very complimentary. You
certainly did a splendid job of producint an outstanding
book.
