अक्षय तृतीया: एक दिन जो रुक कर जीना सिखाता है।

Image
✨ प्रस्तावना – जब माँ ने मुझे रोक लिया... "इतना भाग क्यों रही हो बेटा? ज़रा ठहरो, आज अक्षय तृतीया है..." माँ की यह बात सुनकर मैं मुस्कुरा दी। "माँ, अभी बहुत काम है, त्योहार मनाने का समय नहीं है!" माँ चुप रहीं, लेकिन उनकी आँखों में एक सवाल था— "क्या हम सच में इतने व्यस्त हो गए हैं कि अक्षय भी हमें याद न रहे?" मैं रुक गई। उस दिन मैंने पहली बार अक्षय तृतीया को ध्यान और आत्मिक दृष्टिकोण से देखा। और मेरी यह ठहराव की यात्रा वहीं से शुरू हुई... 🌺 अक्षय तृतीया: सिर्फ एक तिथि नहीं, एक अनुभूति है अक्षय तृतीया को आमतौर पर लोग सोना खरीदने , नए व्यापार शुरू करने , या मंगल कार्य जैसे शादी-विवाह से जोड़ते हैं। लेकिन यह दिन केवल आर्थिक शुभता का नहीं, आध्यात्मिक समृद्धि का भी प्रतीक है। ‘ अक्षय ’ का अर्थ होता है — जिसका कभी क्षय न हो। यह तिथि हमें यह सिखाती है कि अगर हमारी भावना शुद्ध हो , कर्म निष्कलंक हो , और मन शांत हो , तो जीवन में हर दिन अक्षय बन सकता है। 🔱 एक समय की बात है... (एक पौराणिक कथा) जब सुदामा जी अपने मित्र श्रीकृष्ण से मिलने द्वारका गए ...

Dear Inner Child, I’m Listening Now

Image
Dear Inner Child, I’m Listening Now: Reconnecting with the Part of Me I Left Behind In this emotional reflection, I reconnect with my inner child—the part of me I neglected for so long. It's time to listen, heal, and grow together. Here's how I found my way back to the joy and freedom I once knew. Introduction: The Silent Voice Within We all carry an inner child within us—the playful, innocent version of ourselves, full of wonder, joy, and untapped potential. For years, I ignored her. I believed she was irrelevant in my adult world, too naive to be heard amidst the noise of responsibilities, expectations, and the constant need to perform. But deep down, I always knew something was missing. Recently, I decided to sit down, close my eyes, and listen. And what I heard was the voice of my inner child —the version of me I had silenced for far too long. This post is for her. It’s time I told her, “ I’m listening now .” The Lost Connection: Why We Ignore Our Inner Child In childh...

Marriage Is Not 50-50, It’s 100-100 – A Tribute to the Wholeness I Chose to Be

Image
The stage was quiet. The spotlight warmed my skin as I stepped forward, my heartbeat louder than the applause that had faded moments ago. I looked out at the sea of faces—some curious, some kind, some simply waiting—and I smiled. Not because everything was perfect, but because I had finally found my voice. This is not just a story about marriage. It’s a story about choosing to be whole. A story about what happens when a woman stops waiting to be completed—and starts living fully, unapologetically, and completely herself. 🌹 “They told me marriage is 50-50... but they were wrong.” I was 24 when I got married. Wide-eyed, full of dreams, unsure of what “forever” really meant. People said, “It’s about balance. You give 50, he gives 50—that’s how love works.” And so, I tried. I tried giving 50%. I kept half my dreams on hold. I measured my efforts. I waited for him to meet me halfway. And when he didn’t, I felt defeated. But one day—quietly, without drama—I stopped expecting balance. I...

Ego vs. Soul The Eternal Inner Conflict

Image
By Aarohi ✨ Introduction: There was a moment — quiet, almost invisible — when I caught myself fighting with my own thoughts. One part of me was reactive, hurt, and desperate to be understood. The other part was still, patient, gently whispering, “Let it go.” That day, I realized something profound — there were two distinct voices within me. One craved validation, control, and attention. The other sought peace, truth, and surrender. The first was Ego . The second, Soul . Since then, I’ve been on a journey — not to silence one and glorify the other — but to understand the sacred dance between the two. The conflict between ego and soul is not a flaw in our design, but a part of our spiritual evolution. 🌿 1. Understanding the Ego The ego is not inherently bad. In fact, it’s the part of us that helps us survive, form an identity, and interact with the world. It is built over years — shaped by our experiences, comparisons, fears, achievements, and societal roles. It says things ...

Not Just Married: Emotionally Married, Too

Image
By Aarohi "Marriage is not just about sharing a home, a surname, or a bed. It's about sharing hearts, silences, wounds, and dreams." The Beginning Was Beautiful When we got married, the world celebrated us. The photos were perfect, the rituals emotional, the vows heartfelt. We were two souls stepping into the sacred promise of togetherness. But soon, life happened. Jobs, responsibilities, bills, parents, social obligations—everything began to crowd our quiet moments. We were still married. But were we still emotionally married? The Invisible Distance It started with skipped meals together, replaced by hurried phone calls and “I’ll eat later.” Then came the conversations that turned into to-do lists: "Pick up the groceries." "Don’t forget the plumber is coming." "Have you paid the electricity bill?" Somewhere between the noise of everyday life, we forgot to ask, “How was your day?” and even more importantly, “How are you feeling?”...

मैं कौन हूँ? | आत्म-खोज की एक भावनात्मक यात्रा | Aarohi Stories

Image
क्या आपने कभी खुद से सवाल किया है — "मैं कौन हूँ?" यह सवाल छोटा सा है, पर जवाब बहुत गहरा। हम ज़िन्दगी भर कई रिश्तों में, कई ज़िम्मेदारियों में, खुद को कहीं पीछे छोड़ देते हैं। Aarohi आपको आज एक ऐसी यात्रा पर ले चलती है — जहाँ भावनाओं की लहरें हैं, कविता की कोमलता है, और खुद से मिलने की एक अनकही कोशिश है। चलिए… शुरू करें ये आत्म-संवाद की यात्रा।   🕯️ कहानी शुरू होती है... एक शाम थी… हल्की सी उदास। खिड़की के पास बैठी मैं, चाय का कप थामे हुए, अपने ही ख्यालों में कहीं खो गई थी। किसी ने नहीं पूछा... पर आज मैंने खुद से पूछ लिया — "मैं कौन हूँ?" 🌿 कुछ पंक्तियाँ मन ने खुद से कहीं... "चेहरे तो कई हैं, हर मोड़ पे पहन लिए, कभी मुस्कान, कभी खामोशी बनकर जी लिए। पर जो अंदर है, वो अब भी अनकहा है, मैं कौन हूँ – ये सवाल अब भी जिंदा है।" ☕ खुद से एक बातचीत... मैंने आईने में देखा — वो लड़की जो देख रही थी मुझे, थोड़ी थकी, पर टूटी नहीं। थोड़ी उलझी, पर रुकी नहीं। "कभी किसी की बेटी, किसी की माँ, कभी दोस्त, कभी बहन, हर रिश्ते में खुद को पूरा कर दि...

The Transition from Daughter to Mother: Realizations & Reflections

Image
Life comes full circle when a daughter becomes a mother. The very hands that once held her are now holding a new life. This transition is not just a physical change but an emotional and spiritual awakening. A journey filled with love, sacrifice, realizations, and deep reflections. A New Perspective on Motherhood As daughters, we often fail to see the depth of our mothers’ sacrifices. The sleepless nights, the constant worry, and the selfless love seemed ordinary. But the moment we hold our own child, a wave of emotions crashes over us, revealing the truth—motherhood is a love that knows no limits. We begin to understand the silent struggles, the untold stories, and the immense strength that our mothers carried within them. Every little decision—from choosing the right baby food to soothing a restless child—suddenly feels overwhelming. We start realizing how effortlessly our mothers balanced so many roles without ever seeking recognition. The weight of responsibility feels heavy, yet...
