Courage, in My Quiet Moments

There’s a quote I keep coming back to, especially lately, by Mary Anne Radmacher: “Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, ‘I will try again tomorrow.’” To be honest, I haven’t been in a place where I feel strong or fearless. Most days, I’m just moving through my responsibilities-doing a job I didn’t choose out of passion, but out of necessity. And some days, it feels like the weight of everything is too much. The dreams I had for myself feel paused or distant, and preparing for something better feels hard when I’m already stretched thin. But then there’s that small voice inside me - the one that shows up quietly when the day ends. It doesn’t roar. It doesn’t promise miracles. It just says, “Try again tomorrow.” That’s the courage I’m learning to hold onto. Not the loud, dramatic kind, but the steady, tired kind - the one that keeps showing up, even when nothing feels certain. So if you’re also in a place where you're just try...

गुरु पूर्णिमा का असली अर्थ: क्यों मनाई जाती है वेदव्यास जी की जयंती?

गुरु पूर्णिमा का नाम लेते हैं... पर क्या जानते हैं इसका मूल कारण? हर साल गुरु पूर्णिमा के दिन हम अपने शिक्षकों और गुरुओं को याद करते  हैं। पर क्या आप जानते हैं कि यह पर्व असल में किसके सम्मान में मनाया जाता है? आज की पीढ़ी में बहुत लोग इसे सिर्फ अपने व्यक्तिगत गुरु या मेंटॉर की पूजा का दिन मानते हैं, लेकिन गुरु पूर्णिमा का वास्तविक महत्व इससे कहीं गहरा है। यह दिन समर्पित है भगवान वेदव्यास जी को, जिनका जन्म इसी दिन हुआ था। गुरु पूर्णिमा क्यों मनाते हैं? गुरु पूर्णिमा वेदव्यास जयंती है। वेदव्यास जी ने न केवल चारों वेदों का विभाजन किया, बल्कि उन्होंने महाभारत, 18 पुराण, और कई अन्य ग्रंथों की रचना कर भारत की आध्यात्मिक विरासत को अमर कर दिया। वेदव्यास जी को "आदि गुरु" कहा जाता है क्योंकि उन्होंने गुरु-शिष्य परंपरा को स्थापित किया और ज्ञान को व्यवस्थित रूप से प्रस्तुत किया। वेदव्यास जी की महानता चारों वेदों का संकलन (ऋग्वेद, यजुर्वेद, सामवेद, अथर्ववेद) महाभारत की रचना – जिसमें भगवद्गीता भी सम्मिलित है पुराणों और ब्रह्मसूत्रों की रचना शिष्य परंपरा के माध्यम से ज्ञान का प्रसार उनके ब...

Let Life Flow!

 Breathe. Let Life Flow. “You don’t always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, let go, and see what happens. Life often unfolds more beautifully when we stop trying to control every piece of it.” We spend so much time trying to control outcomes—mapping every step, overthinking every move—that we forget: life is already happening. The power is in presence. In release. When we stop gripping so tightly, we make room for peace, progress, and unexpected beauty. Letting go isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. 💭 Reflect & Reset: • What are you holding onto that no longer serves you? • What could shift if you allowed life to flow instead of forcing it?

Empowering Your Journey: Lifelong Learning and Growth in India

 The Power of Learning India’s youth hold immense potential. In fact, UNESCO reports that over 600 million Indians (nearly half the population) are under 25. In this context, each student and young professional has the chance to shape the future. For example, business leader Ratan Tata often reminded people that “the greatest value that my parents may have given to me was a good education. Don’t fritter it away.” This highlights how powerful education can be. Education in India is not just about passing exams; it’s a lifelong journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Embrace a Growth Mindset Learning never stops, and a positive mindset is key. In fact, “Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.” This reminds us that having a growth attitude can propel us beyond challenges. Instead of fearing failure, view setbacks as stepping stones. Winston Churchill captured this spirit: “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts....

Present

 If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.            -Lao Tzu

100 Years Before Ghibli-Style Al

Studio Ghibli Vibes 100 Years Before Ghibli-Style Al, This Japanese Artist's Exquisite Woodblock Prints Captured India's Striking Beauty Al-generated Ghibli-style images are everywhere: soft colours, dreamy details, pure nostalgia. But long before Al or even Ghibli, one man captured that magic by hand. Hiroshi Yoshida, a Japanese woodblock master, wasn't just an artist, he was an adventurer. To paint landscapes, he travelled the world himself. In 1930, he set his sights on India. Japan and India's cultural ties were growing, and Yoshida was drawn to India's rich history and stunning landscapes. For four months, he captured the country like never before. He was part of the shin-hanga movement that blended traditional woodblock printing with modern techniques. Unlike older ukiyo-e prints, it used Western-style shading, creating depth and atmosphere. Most artists left the carving and printing to craftsmen. Not Yoshida. He controlled everything, from sketching to colour...
