Hi, welcome.
It’s a bit of a miracle you’re here. In this vast world of digital debris, you somehow found me and decided to spend your precious time here. Thank you.
Aside from being a mother, writer is how I know myself. I explore a wide range of topics, mostly because I’ve always convinced myself I’m a wannabe polymath.
I write because it is a matter of sustenance, and I truly hope these words can become a refuge for you too. ❤️

I will either find a way, or make one. Below are all the articles, podcasts and vlogs I have published so far.
Chandra Shekaraaya Namah Om: The Sacred Om Namah Shivaya Chant
Chandrashekhara is the one who wears the moon and Gangadhara is the one that holds the Ganga, they are tributes to the many attributes of Lord Shiva. Featured Image: This 12-foot monolithic stone Shiva Linga is located in Kanli Bagh, Baramulla, Kashmir. Thank...
Skyfaring In Luxor, Egypt: A Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Ride Over the Valley of the Kings
At 5am, we got ready for our sunrise hot air balloon ride. We were each handed a small bag of breakfast items to take with us at the lobby of our cruise. A few of us ate a muffin or a slice of bread but were mostly not hungry at that early. We were then picked up by a...
Chopra Is a Construct. Epstein’s Crimes Are Real.
The Business of Consciousness Constructs In one of the emails to Epstein, Deepak Chopra declares, “God is a Construct. Cute Girls are Real.” Yup, the self help Guru Deepak Chopra features in Epstein emails over 3000 times. And this is just one of the few...
The Evolution of Love: Marriage, Survival, and Personal Reinvention in a Changing World
A Society Experiences Growing Pains I took this picture of a wall hanging in the lobby of a hotel we were staying at in Granada, Spain. Somehow, the couples whose heads are disintegrating felt like a fitting image for the essay on marriage I was writing. I’ve...
The Prophet and the Poet: Tupac’s Humanity, Legacy, and Why His Words Still Heal Generations
For the longest time, until it just became too dirty for me to wear, I would wear my Tupac shirt whenever I had to run an errand or just take Yogi, our dog, out for a walk. I can't find a picture of mine readily, but I’ll update this space once I find one of me...
I Walked In as a Tourist and Left Feeling Like I Belonged Somewhere I’d Never Been Before
Selling Our Soul to The Arts I arrived in SFO as a tourist, but the moment I walked into SFMOMA, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, it felt like I belonged there. I was suddenly in the company of over 50,000 artists’ works. The Grand Atrium’s minimalist...
You could’ve chosen to land your eyeballs anywhere. And yet, here you are. Thank you.
Its been my dream for years to do something to consciously create a better future where every one of us is excited about our own potential. My challenge to everyone is that they aspire for their personal best and leave a legacy of their work through their contributions to mankind.
I want us to remember to respect ourselves, our time and our capabilities in a world where distractions are just a click or a swipe away. I also never want to let this idea out of my sight – Our children are not just GPAs. In a world obsessed with metrics and machines, there’s so much we must do to equip our children with real life readiness skills.
In December of 2044, I hope to win the Nobel.
Namasté.
