Muktibodh is widely regarded as a pioneer of modern Hindi poetry in India along with [[Surya Kant Tripathi 'Nirala']].<ref name=sahitya>[http://www.sahitya-akademi.gov.in/old_version/glos.htm Muktibodh] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080914033637/http://www.sahitya-akademi.gov.in/old_version/glos.htm |date=14 September 2008 }} [[Sahitya Akademi]] Official website.</ref><ref>[http://www.tribuneindia.com/2000/20000910/spectrum/books.htm#1 Resurrection of Kumar Vikal] [[The Tribune (Chandigarh)|The Tribune]], 10 September 2000.</ref> He was a leading figure in the ''Prayogvaad'' [[Experimental literature|Experimentalism]] movement of [[Hindi literature|Hindi literature and of]] the ''Nayi Kahani'' and ''Nayi Kavita'' [[Modernism]] of the 1950s.<ref name=Indian/> He is also considered a central figure in the rise of 'New Criticism' in Indian literature. He was an assistant editor of important Hindi journals including ''Naya Khun'' and ''Vasudha''.<ref name="abhi">[http://www.abhivyakti-hindi.org/lekhak/g/gajanan_madhav_muktibodh.htm Muktibodh Profile] www.abhivyakti-hindi.org.</ref>

Muktibodh was born in [[Sheopur]], [[Madhya Pradesh]]. He started out as one of the seven poets included in the first volume of ''[[Tar Saptak]]'', a series of anthologies (1943), which marked a transition in [[Hindi literature]] from the prevalent movement in [[Chhayavaad]] or Romanticism. The initiation of ''Prayogvaad or'' [[Experimentalism]] and ''Pragativaad or'' [[Progressivism]] in Hindi poetry eventually led to the creation of the 'Nayi Kahani' (New Story) movement or [[Modernism]].

''Brahmarakshas'' (ब्रह्मराक्षस) is considered Muktibodh's most influential work in experimental poems, noted for the use of [[Archetypal literary criticism|archetypal imagery.]] This poem is a haunting depiction of the contemporary intellectual, who gets so lost in his own sense of perfectionism, unending calculations, and subjective interpretation of the external reality that he loses touch with reality itself, and eventually dies and fades away like a dead bird.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=m1R2Pa3f7r0C&pg=PA161&vq=Muktibodh&dq=Gajanan+Madhav+Muktibodh&source=gbs_search_s&sig=ACfU3U3muK4tKAq4nTOFpTVMIPJSH5B6AA Experimentalism] Modern Indian Literature, an Anthology: An Anthology, by K.

[[File:Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh with his wife.png|thumb|Muktibodh with his wife]]
His first individual book was published in 1964, when he was on his death-bed: ''[Chand Ka Muh Teda Hai [http://www.kavitakosh.org/kk/index.php?title=%E0%A4%9A%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%82%E0%A4%A6_%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%BE_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%81%E0%A4%81%E0%A4%B9_%E0%A4%9F%E0%A5%87%E0%A4%A2%E0%A4%BC%E0%A4%BE_%E0%A4%B9%E0%A5%88._/_%E0%A4%97%E0%A4%9C%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A8%E0%A4%A8_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A7%E0%A4%B5_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%81%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A4%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%AC%E0%A5%8B%E0%A4%A7]'' (चाँद का मुहँ टेढ़ा है).<ref name=Indian/> Although Muktibodh could not manage to get his works published, as a book in his lifetime, he was one of the contributing poets to the first three volumes of ''[[Tar Saptak]]'', a series of path-breaking poetry anthologies, edited by [[Ajneya]]."Bhoori Bhoori Khak Dhool"is the collection of his remaining poems. His collected works, published as 'Muktibodh Rachnavali" were edited by Nemichand Jain.

He is today considered a bridge between the [[Progressivism|Progressive]] movement in Hindi poetry and the ''Nayi Kavita'' (Modern poetry) movement.<ref name="abhi"/>

Muktibodh made a name for himself in the field of criticism as well, with his strong views on the upper caste's influence on the disintegration of Bhakti movement in India, which he viewed as a lower caste uprising against the hegemony upper caste.<ref>[http://www.sabrang.com/cc/comold/march98/dalit.htm Dalit] "According to Gajanan Madhav Muktibodh: the Bhakti movement began as a revolt of the lower castes/lower classes against the upper castes/upper classes; it drew people from all castes/classes but the egalitarian agenda was generally raised by the lower caste saints; and, when the movement was taken over by the upper castes, the entire movement disintegrated."</ref> In literary criticism, he wrote a critical work on [[Jaishankar Prasad|Jaishankar Prasad's]] ''[[Kamayani]]'' titled: ''Kamayani, Ek Punarvichar''.<ref name="abhi"/>

''Ek Sahityik ki Diary'', first written for his column in the weekly ''Naya Khun'', and later continued in the journal ''Vasudha'' (1957–60), offers a glimpse of his literary and socio-political criticism, and insights into his way of thinking, and was first published in 1964. It is most noted in the article, ''Teesra Kshana'' (Third Moment), where he shows his preference for the hypothesis of three successive stages in the creative process, of inspiration, personalisation, and expression, rather than a single moment of inspiration<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=zB4n3MVozbUC&pg=PA1017&dq=Gajanan+Madhav+Muktibodh&lr=&sig=ACfU3U1in64yzK-CX1EipPco8aJ4LUgVmA Dairies] Encyclopaedia of Indian literature vol. 2, 1988, [[Sahitya Akademi]], {{ISBN|81-260-1194-7}}.

(चाँद का मुहँ टेढ़ा है)

नगर के बीचों-बीच
आधी रात--
अंधेरे की काली स्याह
शिलाओं से बनी हुई
भीतों और अहातों के,
काँच-टुकड़े जमे हुए
ऊँचे-ऊँचे कन्धों पर
चांदनी की फैली हुई
सँवलायी झालरें।
कारखाना--
अहाते के उस पार
धूम्र मुख चिमनियों के ऊँचे-ऊँचे
उद्गार--चिह्नाकार--मीनार
मीनारों के बीचों-बीच
चांद का है टेढ़ा मुँह!!<ref>[http://www.kavitakosh.org/kk/index.php?title=%E0%A4%9A%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%82%E0%A4%A6_%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%BE_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%81%E0%A4%81%E0%A4%B9_%E0%A4%9F%E0%A5%87%E0%A4%A2%E0%A4%BC%E0%A4%BE_%E0%A4%B9%E0%A5%88_/_%E0%A4%97%E0%A4%9C%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A8%E0%A4%A8_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%A7%E0%A4%B5_%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%81%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A4%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%AC%E0%A5%8B%E0%A4%A7 चाँद का मुहँ टेढ़ा है]</ref>

</poem>
|The wind's sari border quivers 
bullets pierce empty 
nests on the fig-tree 
Bald detective of pale moonlight 
wander the city streets 
penetrating its many secret woes 
in multiangular corners... 
and further on: 
Her lips turn dark 
Suspended on 
a sculpted torso in a harijan temple 
greying thatch-roofs 
gnarled banyan roots 
misty ghosts of lime-smeared rags 
arrested in 
blouses, petticoats 
tattered bedsheets 
The lustful eye of the bald crooked moon...

== Legacy ==

His brilliance was recognized by the literary world after the posthumous publication of ''Chand Ka Munh Tedha Hai,'' the first collection of his poems, in the early 1960s. Ever since, the book has run into several editions, and is recognized as a modern classic. In his memory, [[Madhya Pradesh]] Sahitya Parishad, has instituted the annual ''MuktiBodh Puraskar''.

In 2004, 'Muktibodh Smarak', a memorial was set up at the 'Triveni Sangrahalaya' in [[Rajnandgaon]] in Chhattisgarh, along with fellow poets of Chhattisgarh, ''Padumlal Punnalal Bakshi'' and ''Baldeo Prasad Mishra''.<ref>[http://rajnandgaon.nic.in/district.htm History] [[Rajnandgaon]] Official website.</ref><ref>The Muktibodh Smarak at Triveni Sangrahalaya is at coordinates {{coord|21.092136|81.027751|type:landmark|name=Muktibodh Smarak}}</ref>
