Revealing the Real: A Journey Beyond the Masks (Part-2)

The day I realized I wasn’t defined by these masks but by something far more powerful and beautiful, my whole world shifted. I discovered that I’m strong, loving, and full of grace. I’m just me—no more hiding behind false fronts.

I decided to walk this red road with nothing but my true self on display. If you’re not cool with who I am, that’s your choice. I’d rather be true to myself and let those who don’t accept me go.

Peeling off these masks revealed my true essence: a core filled with peace and love. I’m not just a collection of other people’s fears or projections. I am who I am, seen through my own eyes and those of something greater, not through the judgmental lens of society.

People who can’t accept me for who I am clearly aren’t meant to be part of my life anymore. I’m done trying to fit in; I’m ready to soar like an eagle. Walking this red road has transformed me into a phoenix, rising from the ashes of all those old masks and false identities. I’m finally at peace with myself and understand that being true to who I am is exactly how I was meant to be.

Sure, letting go of those masks cost me some relationships and things, but it was worth it to rediscover and cherish my true self. Sometimes you have to lose things to gain a deeper understanding of your own happiness and joy.

I learned a lot during this unmasking journey. When people tried to keep me in a shell, it exposed their own masks—showing their self-centeredness and disregard for my true identity. I refuse to let myself be diminished by anyone or anything anymore, no matter how others perceive me.

I’ve found a beautiful connection with nature, the divine, and myself—these are the bonds I want to cherish forever.

So, how about you? Are you being true to yourself, or are you hiding behind your own masks? Take a moment to uncover them and find the real you.

Parenting - A Spiritual Approach (Part - 1)

Are you practicing conscious or ignorant parenting?  Spiritual or Conscious Parenting  can assist you in achieving a more balanced approach toward parenthood. Let me first ask you —  what do you understand by  parenting ? If you resonate with any of the below listed, then you must switch to  spiritual parenting :   Parenting is only babysitting. Bring up children solely with values, traditions, and culture. Make them understand the difference between righteousness and avoiding wrong choices. Being a parent gives us the right to make and lead their decisions and lives forever. And anything you have learned or understood from lifetimes and generations about being strict with them, or possibly leading them all their lives, making them feel guilty if they make mistakes, and so on. Being a parent is indeed challenging. I agree with this fact —  what parents can do for us, we can never do for them . It is the eternal truth; however, there is alway...

Surrender to the Divine – Flow with Life and Universe

We often heard our mothers and grandmothers saying and teaching us the gist of life during difficult situations —  Surrender yourself to the Almighty (be it any religion or realm), and he will take care of everything. We heard the most famous phrase from the holy Gita ,  Karmanyewaadhikaraste maa phaleshu kadachin, maa karmphalheturbhurma te sanghoatavkarmani.  It means you can only put your karmas to action, leave the rest to God, and he is the best to hear our prayers and reward us with whatever is best for us. Often people put in a lot of hard work but still doubt if they will succeed, or when someone is in a difficult situation, we often lose patience and faith. It is a frequent feeling we all experience. I also went through this in my life at some point in time. After all, we are humans and tend to get panicked in such a state of mind and situations. Why are we talking about surrendering it to God? We do not even have a correct understanding of what God is these day...

The Seven Chakras and How They Relate To Our Wellbeing

The Seven Chakras We have discussed the  Chakras  in our earlier posts to reveal what they are. Although there are many other chakras in our body and beyond our physical presence, we will focus on the  seven main chakras  in this post. What are they, how do they appear, and how do these chakras affect our lives when blocked, under-active, overactive, or active (open) balanced? The Muladhara or Root (Base) Chakra   This chakra is at the base or root of the spine. The color associated with this chakra is  ruby red or red.  It represents the  earth  element, which allows us to stay grounded with our roots and connected with Mother Gaia (earth). It also represents a sense of security, especially financially. When this chakra is  active or open  and balanced, it gives us a sense of security, which means we will feel more supported, secure, grounded, calm, and peaceful within ourselves. If it becomes  under-active or ...
