Jaipur-based scholar and poet honored by Hashtag Kalakar for blending intellect, empathy, and activism through verse
Jaipur, India — From the laboratories of immunology to the lyrical world of poetry, Dr. Hari Mohan Saxena stands as a rare fusion of intellect and artistic expression. Recently featured among the Top Global Poets in the Hashtag Kalakar Global Art and Writing Contest, Dr. Saxena’s work reflects a lifelong pursuit of truth, justice, and the essence of humanity — qualities that make his poetic voice both timeless and deeply relevant.
A Ph.D. from Nottingham University, U.K., and former Counsellor (S&T) at the Indian Embassy in Russia, Dr. Saxena has built an illustrious academic career spanning decades, institutions, and continents. Yet, beyond his achievements as Dean, Professor, and Researcher, lies a poet whose words pierce through societal hypocrisy and illuminate the path of conscience. His poetry, like his life’s work, is grounded in truth — fearless in confronting injustice, yet tender in celebrating compassion and resilience.
“Truth alone triumphs,” says Dr. Saxena, echoing both his personal philosophy and the guiding light behind his poetry.
A Poet Who Writes for Change, Not Applause
Dr. Saxena’s journey into writing began early — as a student editing school and college magazines, and later, broadcasting 25 of his poems on All India Radio (Aakashvani). His words have since traveled far beyond borders, languages, and disciplines, resonating with readers around the world.
His poems are not crafted for ornamentation but for purpose — a literary crusade against corruption, inequality, and indifference. “I write what I observe and feel in day-to-day life,” he shares. “Through satire, emotion, and truth, I express my anger over social injustice and motivate people to rise against unfairness.”
Over the years, Dr. Saxena has won global recognition for his poetic and intellectual contributions. His accolades include:
- Gold Medal and Truth Writer Fellowship in the Golden Door Awards (Singapore)
- Emily Dickinson Award for literary excellence
- The honorary title “Sahitya Alankaar” by Akhil Bhartiya Kala Sanskruti Sahitya Parishad
- Recognition as a Rex Karmaveer Global Fellow, and Fellow of both the World Innovation Foundation and National Academy of Veterinary Sciences
He has published four books, over 100 research papers, 20 chapters, and a book of Hindi poems, in addition to presenting 76 research papers across international and national conferences.
But in every achievement, Dr. Saxena sees poetry as his truest form of expression — a mirror reflecting society’s contradictions, and a flame that burns for justice, equality, and human dignity.
Poetry That Inspires Reflection and Resistance
In his writing, Dr. Saxena elevates the unsung heroes of ordinary life, giving them voice and dignity through words. His poetry stands as a bold, clear, and compassionate challenge to the corrupt, the unjust, and the apathetic.
“I aim to inspire hope, love, and kindness,” he says. “But I also wish to awaken the human spirit — to make readers question and rise against wrongs done to them or others.”
His work strikes a balance between intellect and empathy — a quality that sets him apart in the contemporary literary world. While his scientific background lends precision and logic, his poetic voice speaks with soul and conscience. Together, they form a rare harmony of thought and feeling, reason and rebellion.
