I have a 2-year-old child at home and often at times I wonder, can we draw a parallel between a parent-child interaction and our interactions with the Divine? Take simple examples such as fostering a routine (bedtime, eating at fixed times); or not providing things harmful to their health (sweets, savories, etc.). 👩👧🌱🕊️🙏🏻 […]

Last night I had a dream in which I was enjoying myself with my friends; the girl I loved was also part of the gathering. But now the group which I saw there is mostly scattered and we don’t have the same intensity of friendship between us. Is this just a subconscient thing coming up? Or is there any significance behind this? 🌙💭🤝🙏🏻 […]
