Advertise on podcast: Soulfulness

Meandering thoughts about the different facets of silence.

Adding a new segment to my podcast with this hindi poem I wrote. I hope you all like it and show your love and support. Since I have not translated it in English, I am sharing the essence here...... This random musing is about holding onto relationships and in doing so completely forgetting that there is one relationship we all have to value most and that is our relationship with ourselves. We sometimes grip these cords so tightly that they overlap the fate lines on our Palms but these wounds are temporary, they heal. And things happen as per divine timing as destiny is not a slave of a few lines on our Palms.

This is a tale from Kalika Purana retold by Satya Chaitanya. This is not just a tale of love but of wholeness. The balance and harmony between complimentary pairs, the union of divine feminine and masculine. The Chinese concept of yin and yang, in Greek mythology there is a mention of humans in androgynous form and in India it is Ardhnarishwara ..... different cultures, different traditions but all convey the same message of wholeness...... A wholeness that we have to first create within.

Sam and Sasha and a story of their first love or maybe it is the story of love that occupied a place in their hearts that could not have been replaced. A short story to depict that life moves and so do people but a part of them remains with the one they truly love.

A short story of love that survived even in unusual circumstances. It's an expression of that feeling which stays in your heart even after people leave.
