It was August of 2001 when MuktoChinta had begun its journey in the cyber world. MuktoChinta is a Bangla word with its close
similarity with Hindi and other Sanskrit based languages that can be found in Indian sub-continent and among the immigrant
population throughout the world.

"Mukto" means "free" (free from fear and prejudices, embracing freedom and liberty), and "Chinta" means thinking or thoughts
(perhaps, self meditation or introspection, reflection on one's conscience). Thus, MuktoChinta means Freethinking.

<>From the moment of its inception, our goal was to provide a platform where quality articles, essays, poems, philosophical musings,
and other facets of creative literature could be shared among friends from around the world. Perhaps it was the increasingly complex
world of ours with its violence, wars, terrorisms, natural disasters, and out of bound corruptions in almost every segment of social
structures provided impetus for learning this strange world of ours, and at the same time there were efforts in depicting a peaceful
earth that can still be achievable.

There are no commercial interests involved in this journey, since from the beginning it was dawn to us that if that narrow route were
taken, we could become bounded by disastrous self-interests, defeating the purpose of MuktoChinta.

MuktoChinta is for the progressive world community. It is not associated with any ideologies or hidden political agenda,
conservative or liberal, theism or atheism since we do believe that our world cannot be represented by the oversimplified black and
white scenarios, nor can it be described with the new flourished doctrine of our time, "either you are with us or you are with the ..."

Plainly speaking, we are with the truth and freedom, and hope to present the world as it is, without fear and prejudice.
