327. The fragrance of memory

 Sensory Chronicles 

Week 2

The fragrance of memory 

Anka🐔: it's lunch time and I have got us biryani but you aren't looking fine 

 Priy 🐣: I am unable to overcome overthinking nature of mine 

Anka pulls out Bay leaf and offers to Priy and asks to write down the feelings and be free

Bay leaf has not just made biryani flavourful but on burning the leaf will manifest positivity

Priy 🐣 - I will. But I can't have food as my tooth has sensitivity 

Anka 🐔- Eat this clove to find some relief,it's a real deal

The biryani has good amount of Turmeric from within to heal 

Priy 🐣 - This water bottle here was given by my teacher 

I already had one but I took this to have it later 

But when she wanted some water I didn't have one to offer 

I thought I shouldnt have taken it in anticipation of keeping a buffer 

Placing Clove in mouth feels bitter

But it's soothing the teeth and I feel better

Anka 🐔- The little experience you faced has a takeaway 

But doesn't mean you overthink and stress your day 

Next time you know to make choice

Eat the cardamom pod , cleanze your oral health and have a clear voice 

I too have a dilemma if i should take someone's favour

Can you suggest which spice could help me add a solution flavour 

Pri 🐣: Be careful, and have some black pepper within you to think well before you accept, for nothing here comes for free.

Don't fall in a loop ,Protect your self respect, you need to sleep peacefully in your home tree 

Let's have our lunch and catch up for evening snack 

Rest well , work well and learning to deal with situation is indee

d a knack!!!

It is lunch time and Anka 🐔 bring veg rice item 

Offering to Priy 🐣 who picks the whole spice like a treasured gem

Anka 🐔 said that these gives flavour to rice and then are discarded

Pri 🐣 mentions the quality of whole spices which which are never time barred 

Like cardamom,the original mouth freshner to have after food 

In same lines chanting God's name freshens mind and feels so good

Like turmeric which acts as antiseptic ,Positive mindset makes day looks peaceful even if it's hectic 

Like Clove reduces tooth ache ,Whole spices preserves essence but doesn't overshadow the flavour of food 

Each experience make one realise a new perspective, a new take 

Everything in life happens for a reason and for our highest good !!!

329 . Book club. Shri Maatre namah

 

Shri Maatre namah .

One of the first books I ever purchased for my mother was the Lalita Sahasranama. It contains the thousand sacred names of Maa Lalitambika, who embodies the divine energies of Maa Lakshmi, Maa Saraswati, Maa Parvati, and Maa Durga. She represents the supreme feminine power, and this sacred scripture comprises 182 verses that reveal her thousand names.

This is my humble attempt to understand the meaning behind these divine names and share my reflections, beginning with the very first name.

Shri Mata 

Shri signifies greatness. Shri Mata means universal mother. All creatures are born from her cosmic womb. When we meditate upon Shri Mata, we connect with the boundless love and nurturing energy of the Divine Mother. Her presence fills us with courage, removes fear, and reminds us that we are never alone. We are always protected, guided, and embraced by her infinite blessings. 

Shri Maatre Namah. 🙏

Shri Maatre Namah

Name of Maa Lalitambike from the Shri Lalita Sahasranama

"Shrimaharajni"

Shrim is a powerful Beej Mantra.

Maharajni means Supreme Queen. She is the Queen of Sustenance. Chanting or reciting this name is believed to instill confidence, strengthen leadership qualities, and help us face our fears with courage.

Shri Maatre namah 🙏

Shri Maatre Namah

Shrimad Simhasaneshwari

The divine Mother's name begins with "Shrim," a powerful Beej Mantra associated with auspiciousness, abundance, and divine grace.

Simha means lion, the king of the animal kingdom, symbolizing courage, strength, and fearlessness. Ishwari means the Supreme Goddess, the Divine Mother who helps us overcome fear, dissolve negativity, and transform our lives with compassion and inner strength.

The first three names of the beautifully represent the three cosmic functions:

- Shri Mata – The Divine Mother, the source of creation.

- Shri Maharajni – The Supreme Queen, who sustains and governs the universe.

- Shrimad Simhasaneshwari – The Goddess seated on the majestic lion throne, representing transformation and the dissolution of negativity.

Chanting this divine name is believed to instill courage, remove fear, and strengthen the mind. For anyone struggling to make decisions, feeling anxious, or seeking protection from negative influences, meditating on this name can inspire confidence, fearlessness, and inner resilience.

Shri Maatre Namah 🙏

328. Friendships day Flash challenge

 Found Golu, an abandoned kitten this day in a playground many years back tiny and light 

Returned home with this fluffy little ball in white

I felt so happy with all his activities and shared everything to this kitty 

Each of the memories with him and all the pets I owned has a special place in my heart's serendipity 

Nobody can beat the amount of selfless love these animals pour 

Deep in my heart ,I pray they are at peace and grateful for the friendship so pure !!!

325. Picture Prompt

 R

eview 

Your poem is a beautiful reminder to stay strong, trust God, and keep moving forward even when the path ahead is unclear. I love the way you highlighted that you learn humbleness from the tall trees and find hope even as night falls. It is a very inspiring, positive, and heart-touching piece—wonderful work✍️✨

I am walking in faith wearing my confidence in sleeve

The path unknown but I feel positive 

The grass appears as if my favourite God is seated 

I may step in thorn but will never be defeated 

Picture clicked in dawn and disk appear similar 

Why does the gloominess seem familiar?

Is it the similar situation again?

I hope to not repeat the past mistakes of pain

I believed that I am so tall and can never fumble

Tall trees gives me a reminder to st

ay humble 

The destination seemed so near

It's already dusk and I can't see any path clear

I walk as if blindfolded with feel faith away from fear

God will protect me ,he is within my reach so near

This night shall too pass and awaiting to see the morning again

And have self belief, determination, Will power to restart regain 

No pain ,No gain

No effort will ever go in vain 

This journey is a beautiful chapter of my lifes leap 

Miles to go before I sleep !!!
