Happy March dear wanderer! What a lovely month February has been and what an amazing start to this year! Its been such a surreal journey for me, with exponential evolution and healing, spiritually, mentally and physically and I believe it will continue to be so. <touch wood> The one thing I love more than anything in this Universe, is my trust, faith and surrender to the process (i.e) to Krishna ( I refer to Krishna as God, at times I refer to it as Kaali ma, at other times as the Universe, so feel free to refer to it however it resonates with you ) If there could be anything that surpasses this, it would be my soulful wish to see everyone enjoy the same level of peace, bliss, safety and unconditional warmth I feel every single moment right now. My life post surrendering has been miraculous and magical to say the least and for me it seems a crime to not share this beautiful journey as succinctly as I can, with you, in the hope of inspiring you to gain faith in the Higher Power t...

Greetings wanderer! I sure hope January 2021 has been a month of reflections, insights, celebrations and joy for you as it has been for me. I cannot believe the extent to which I have accelerated in my spiritual journey and I have my amazingly supportive and wonderfully open minded soul family to thank ( shout out to y'all! ) for being with me every step of the way. Alright, before you switch tabs or exit this page entirely (I promise it contains exactly what the title says... bear with me as you always lovingly do), I dive deep into today's topic (which has a lot to do with the preamble of this article) and announce to your ever supportive eyes that this year on, I am my own valentine (by choice)! Self Partnering is the new Single What do I mean by that?  I mean to say I have learnt to unconditionally accept and love the beautiful jumble of soul, spirit, mind, muscle and bones that forms me. I have promised to me that I'll nurture myself everyday and strive to transform al...

        One day an Alien came to Earth Expecting to find it full of joy & mirth But the scene that met its eyes Was worse than the shrill screeching of mice Everywhere it saw, men And women were fighting As to which one was greater Neither giving any logical evidence for citing Man said " I'm the greater one For I'm physically strong" Woman said " I'm the one who bears babies And therefore you are wrong" Man said  "I'm more courageous And that's a point for reckoning" Woman said " I'm your better half Without me you're nothing" Man said " I can do many things That you can never imagine to do" Woman said " I can too And hence, the same back at you" At this the alien wondered aloud "What's happening in this planet?! This is different from what my mom said In a childhood sonnet!" "I was told in school too That Earth was inhabited by humans Never did I know that there existed Two ...

As I type this article, the calendar shows today’s date to be the 30th of December…..of 2020. I sit still, in contemplation, thinking how this year has dragged on and has yet flown by so quickly, just like a normal year usually does.  But we know very well that this year was not normal for us. Dalgona Coffee, Banana Bread, Only Netflix and No Chill, Isolation, Quarantine, Shelter-From-Home, Lockdown, Last-time-This-Year-Travel posts and so many other unimaginable things became the cliché for 2020, the year which was the scapegoat that accepted (without a choice), the entire blame for ruining literally everything for almost everyone. Lost your job? Blame 2020 Lost your dog? Blame 2020 Lost your mind? Blame 2020 Lost your keys? Blame 2020  (just kidding - blame someone else who you expected to remind you to keep your keys safe) And I definitely agree that, jokes apart, this year has taken a toll on all of us, in a very dark, dreary way. Uncertainty being a new feeling, makes our...

He was born with a mirror held in his hand peeping inside it he saw the most beautiful baby in the land The baby was cared for by a widower a man lacking joy a heart filled with sorrow eyes yearning to cry The man was scared to view his image To see his own face in his mirror for he had been molded into a mirage of should's, should-nots, fears & shivers This man saw the baby everyday enjoying its face in its mirror laughing and smiling curiously admiring  its own pretty reflection A yearning so deep to be like the happy baby stirred the man into a fit the yearning turned to anger anger to hatred because to him, this felt unfair He tore the mirror from its hands smashing it onto the floor bits and pieces flew away alas, it couldn't be restored the baby was shocked the baby squirmed the baby began to cry wailing and wallowing in a language inexpressible begging to see itself one last time the man felt scared at the baby's wails and wanted to suppress it soon So he showed ...
