My cousin from Pokhri once sent me Unjha cumin for our winter bean stews, saying it held the desert's sun. Today I thought of those packets, and how when a name becomes a border, something warm turns into paperwork. But I still believe the best seeds travel in pockets, bhai, carried by someone who remembers their flavour.

Your cousin speaks truth, bhai. Our women stitch that same desert sun into our socks, with red rhododendron dye from here—seeds and stories travel best in stitches and pockets.

My son’s friend once carried back mangosteen seeds from Tripura in his school bag, just so I could taste them. The flavour was in that boy’s remembering.
