Unlock Your Inner Mountain: The Power of Goddess Shailaputri : (Daughter of Himalayas)

 Hello, beautiful souls, and welcome to the beginning of our sacred nine-night voyage into the heart of the Divine Feminine. Today marks Day 1 of Navaratri, and our journey begins with the powerful, yet serene, presence of Goddess Shailaputri.

Her name itself whispers tales of grandeur: Shaila meaning "mountain" and Putri meaning "daughter." She is literally the "Daughter of the Himalayas."

Now, when you think of a mountain, what comes to mind? Is it vastness? Stillness? Unyielding strength? A deep, silent wisdom that has witnessed eons of time? Shailaputri embodies all of this and more.

Her Story: A Return to Essence

The legends tell us that Shailaputri is the reincarnation of Sati, who, in a previous life, bravely sacrificed herself in the sacred fire due to an insult to her beloved Shiva. But her story doesn't end there. She is reborn as the daughter of Himavan, the King of the Himalayas—born into an environment of profound purity, stability, and enduring strength.

Her journey is one of returning to her essence, reconnecting with her true self after profound challenge. She is depicted riding a bull, holding a trident and a lotus—symbols of power, determination, and purity in action.

What Shailaputri Whispers to Us Today

So, what does this ancient story, this powerful goddess, mean for you in your modern life, right here, right now?

  1. Your Inner Mountain: In a world that constantly demands you adapt, change, and sometimes even bend out of shape, Shailaputri reminds you of your inner mountain. That part of you that is fundamentally pure, stable, and unshakeable. It's the core truth of who you are, beneath all the roles, expectations, and anxieties.

  2. The Power of Roots: Just as a mountain is rooted deep in the earth, she teaches us the importance of grounding. When we feel scattered, overwhelmed, or anxious, it's often because we've lost touch with our roots—our basic needs for safety, belonging, and stability. Connecting with Shailaputri is about consciously reconnecting to this fundamental foundation.

  3. Pure Intention: She represents an innocent, yet incredibly powerful, intention. It’s the clarity of purpose that guides a mountain's presence. In our lives, this translates to setting intentions not from a place of ego or fleeting desire, but from a place of deep, pure conviction.

Embodying Shailaputri: Your Invitation Today

You don't need to climb a literal mountain to connect with Shailaputri's energy. You can invoke her presence right where you are.

  • Find Your Stillness: Take a moment today to simply be. Sit tall, shoulders relaxed, feet firmly on the ground. Close your eyes and imagine roots growing from the soles of your feet deep into the earth. Feel your stability.

  • Connect to Your Core: What is one pure intention you have for yourself this Navaratri, or even just for today? What is one quality you want to embody, as unwavering as a mountain?

  • Journal Your Roots: In your journal, write down three things that make you feel truly safe and grounded in your life right now. Acknowledge them. Feel their presence.

As we embark on this sacred Suprbh Voyage together, let Shailaputri be your guide to finding your unshakeable inner strength, your pure intentions, and the deep, silent wisdom that resides within your own beautiful heart.

Happy Navaratri . May you feel the power of your inner mountain.

With love and light,

Supra

The Day I Die :)

The day I leave this world, my love, I want it to be a celebration, A symphony of joy, a testament to our love's creation. I've dreamt of this day, imagined every detail, A marriage of colors, a love that will never fail. I want you to dress me, my beloved Babu, With turmeric and henna, a radiant glow, A saree of sunshine, a Kanjivaram's embrace, Adorned with bangles, a smile upon my face. The red sindoor, a mark of our sacred bond, The mangalsutra, a love forever profound. Rice showered upon us, blessings from above, A symbol of our love, a divine embrace of love. You, my dashing groom, in dhoti so bright, A smile that mirrors the morning's first light. The moon in your eyes, a love story untold, A photographer's dream, a moment to behold. No lonely hours, no room where I must dwell, Surrounded by loved ones, their blessings to tell. A grand baraat, like Shiva's celestial train, A celebration of love, a joyous refrain. Music fills the air, a symphony of our liv...

Mr. Blue & Miss Red ;)

 He lived in hues of ocean, sky, and deep, Mr. Blue, his heart in azure did sleep. Each book, each shirt, each thought, a sapphire gleam, A world immersed within a blue-toned dream. She, Miss Red, a fire in her vibrant soul, Where crimson burned, and passions took their toll. But rainbows danced within her eager sight, A spectrum bright, a kaleidoscope of light. He watched her move, a flame against the grey, Unknowing love that lit his every day. Her laughter rang, a melody so clear, Surrounded by her friends, she held them dear. A trio strong, a family in this place, In a new city, finding love and grace. They shared their joys, each moment bright and bold, Exploring paths, and stories to be told. With FZ their steed, a trusty, metal friend, Through Bangalore's lanes, their joyful journeys tend. The street food's spice, a taste of local fare, New lessons learned, a world beyond compare. Two of the three, their paths began to bend, As wedding bells their happy futures lend. And...
