Feel the power of silence when it unfolds your thoughts, uncreases your life, and makes you feel good about yourself.
The tinnitus of silence
Played a cacophony of its own
Or was it a quietude of a different kind.
When my heart opened
To the purity of gratification
All the insatiable desires
Died silently.
Drenching my core in serenity
Screaming like an echo
Reverberating from deep inside.
Stirring goosebumps to all my sides
Silence is not silent
She makes the most noise.
She spoke to me
In language I already knew
Of astral lineage
musical and inviting
Hauling me to a bygone past
Overpoweringly scintillating.
Practise silence to meet your own self
For a slow burial of your own vices.
Cease to be a source of noise for once,
Silence your speech~desires~ego
The judgements~habits~thoughts.
Before the curtains fall on you
And you meet her once again
Acquaint yourself with her.
She makes the most noise
And yet, she is beautiful.

A true love story. A tale of politics, treachery and war. A piece from India’s rich history. A vivid description of 18th century life in the Deccan. Yes, The Royal Scandal is all that and more. But it is also an aide-mémoire of the tremendous fortitude, the unbeatable spirit that women are, and have always been, capable of.
18th century, Hyderabad, India. A time and place when societal laws and rules came down heavy on the female gender, when zenanas separated and shielded the women from the world outside, when it was understood and accepted that the men in their lives would govern and dictate every big and small decision.
Women aren’t a place to dump a man’s anger no matter what the issue could be. And calling her names is again not the husband’s right just because they are married.
Trigger Warning: This speaks of domestic violence, emotional abuse, and may be triggering to survivors.

Five-year-old Niranjana was finding it difficult to connect the colours, shapes, and alphabet together. She knew each of them separately, but connecting them together seemed huge and impossible. Tears overflowed her cute eyes when the teacher instructed her to learn at home and answer questions in class.
