होरी ने बैलों की रस्सी थामे धनिया से कहा, “धरती का कर्ज़ चुका दूं तो आत्मा को शांति मिले।” धनिया ने सूखी हंसी के साथ जवाब दिया, “कर्ज़ क्या कभी खत्म हुआ है होरी? बस उम्मीद ही है कि किसी दिन गोदान का सपना सच हो जाएगा।” दोनों की नज़रें आंगन में खेलते गोबर और सोहनी पर टिक गईं। होरी ने बच्चों की ओर इशारा करते हुए कहा, “इनके लिए ही तो इतनी दौड़-धूप है।” धनिया ने माथे की पसीने की बूंद पोंछते हुए उत्तर दिया “और इनके लिए ही हमें लड़ना भी पड़ेगा, चाहे जमींदार हो या गांव की पंचायत।”

ਓ ਚੋਗ ਚੁਗ਼ਿੰਦਾ ਆਇਆ

ਇਕ ਓਦੇ ਰੂਪ ਦੀ ਧੂਪ ਤਿਖੇਰੀ

Math Equations

Mathematical expressions are fully supported using MathJax.

Inline Math

You can write inline equations like $E = mc^2$ or the quadratic formula $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ directly in your text.

Multi Line Math

Summation and Limits:

$$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^2} dx = \sqrt{\pi}$$
$$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^2} = \frac{\pi^2}{6}$$

Differential equations:

$$\begin{aligned} \nabla \times \mathbf{E} &= -\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t} \\ \nabla \times \mathbf{B} &= \mu_0\mathbf{J} + \mu_0\epsilon_0\frac{\partial \mathbf{E}}{\partial t} \end{aligned}$$

Greek alphabets:

$$i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}\Psi(\mathbf{r},t) = \hat{H}\Psi(\mathbf{r},t)$$

Matrix notation:

$$\begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} ax + by \\ cx + dy \end{bmatrix}$$
