It has hued my beliefs and values with meaning. Hope having read it you too would continue to reflect upon it and feel connection with your true self. I call that Authentic Self, my inner mentor and guide. ...

In the valley of Kashmir, where I was born, there is the tradition of viewing the platter of plenty the first thing in the morning of a New Year.

Thoughts race in your mind, which topic would I choose. As you write a rough draft your hand trembles. (Tests)7. The golden thread of the Writing Meditation Practice guides you. (Allies)...
