Send us Fan Mail Our time of birth, our upbringing, families, environments, education, relationships, milestones and  life events have all been different. Well, even if we have had some of our paths crossed we all have different perspectives, we look at things differently and so experience things differently. So why are we comparing? Let’s live our life happily and respect our timeline. #donotcomp...

Send us Fan Mail I recently read a book in which there was this one sentence “How others treat you cannot determine your worth”.  True but isn’t that what keeps our days moving? The thought of what others think of us? There are days we base our understanding of ourselves from the eyes of others. We as a society are built that way, never say no, think about what others would think. Oh actually, we...

Send us Fan Mail It is easy to dwell on the past or worry about the future. However, the truth is that where we are right now is the best place for us to be. This perfect intersection between space and time offers endless opportunities for growth. Instead of dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, we should focus on the present. Whether it is a cup of coffee, pouring our heart into some...

Send us Fan Mail Imagine for a second that you are in a room and suddenly the lights go off. You are blind to everything surrounded by darkness. Instinctively we blink our eyes and remember the position of the things that were around us. Our mind opens up and we see what we know. Actually we believe in what we know at that very moment. Without a doubt. To me faith is that belief.  An anchor we nee...

Send us Fan Mail I was recently talking to a good friend of mine who was sharing something personal with me and I was so engrossed in what she was saying When she completed the story and looked at me I just shook my head, and said everything will be fine. No opinion or advice and I left the conversation at that. A little later I found myself wondering why I didn’t say anything? Usually I expect my...

Send us Fan Mail In my view, it's crucial to keep practicing constant deliberation—a habit that brings out virtues like honesty and fairness in thought, essential for personal growth. While our egos shape us, setting boundaries through thoughtful considerations helps avoid its pitfalls that might lead to inhumanity or insolence. Passing through these ego-driven moments believing that I am nei...

Send us Fan Mail Recently I read Ekalaivan's Mahabharata story which deepened my thoughts on the delicate balance between control and surrender in life. Navigating the balance between asserting control over our lives and allowing nature to unfold is definitely a constant struggle. Understanding the reasons behind our experiences, big or small, can be tricky a lot of times. Our minds, a subtle...

Send us Fan Mail Each of us has a unique life that is to be appreciated without comparison. We experience influences, but it is up to us to filter out the unnecessary. Being true to ourselves, empowering our inner voice, and embracing positivity shapes our lives and slowly helps shed materialistic fallacies. And we each have a unique timeline even for this to happen. While it does, let us focus on...

Send us Fan Mail In our human journey, we move from simply giving and incorporating love into our lives to a point where we not only give love but also become an embodiment of love. It's a transition where expressing love becomes an innate part of who we are, woven into the fabric of our being and reflected in our actions and interactions with others. Consider this situation, a person who ini...

Send us Fan Mail "நான் அசைந்தால் ஆசையும் அகிலமெல்லாமே அறிவாய் மனிதா உன் ஆணவம் பெரிதா"  A beautiful verse of a song from the movie Thiruvilayadal. While the song itself has a powerful back story my adaptation comes from the point of view of self-growth. Today I will talk about how I want to connect it to my heart, mind, and body. Through to Stillness.  Before there came everything there w...

Send us Fan Mail A few years ago, I met @malini at an event hosted by my friend. Later that night, a few of us went for dinner, and Malini joined us a few minutes later. When asked about their fitness, Malini simply said, “I don’t do much, 'வயிறு போதும்னு சொல்லும் போது நான் நிறுத்திடுவேன்’”, following Nammalvar’s words. Roughly translated, it means when their stomach says stop, they immediate...

Send us Fan Mail I believe that children are not an excuse they are a reason, worth everything you have. They give you a reason to live and the strength to tide over your toughest days. Hell yeah they can give you some tough days themselves.  But, take for instance, when Covid hit home my boys and I fell sick all at the same time, and like a pack of cards the entire household followed. I had no se...

Send us Fan Mail One of the many things I like to do like many of you guys is to have a quiet morning with my cup of coffee. Left to my thoughts, organise myself and plan my day ahead and to stay on top of my game. Well, truth be told I feel like this time of the day is purely for myself “The Precious Me Time”.  Our days seem to be getting more and more chalk o block and power packed. You could ha...
