Mystical Narratives: Mesmerising Conversations between Moonlight and Moonshine by Karishma Udit Chhatrapati | Book review

Book review:

"Mystical Narratives" is a compelling journey into the heart's depths, a reminder of poetry's capacity to mirror our emotions and kindle courage in the face of life's challenges. This anthology of poems comprises of magical conversations between Moonshine and Moonlight.   Moonshine, the protagonist, opens her heart to Moonlight, seeking solace and guidance in the face of anguish, pain, fears, and anxieties.

Few of the poetic verses that piqued me :
💟 "Put to sleep -  The mind that confuses,  The intellect that judges,  The ego that discriminates.  Awaken! The soul that is aware For the Divine is here, there and everywhere ".

Our mind is never at rest chasing one thing or the other. For a directional approach or healthy well being one need to put his mind at rest as it confuses us. Our ego never let us discriminate between right or wrong so we need to awake. Our divine soul is aware of the holy existence of the almighty. As Almighty God is omnipresent and can be felt at any place or in any condition.

💟" If your prayers are whispered in grateful faith  Then even what is not meant to be, will be yours; Albeit, if it is in your highest interest."

Such a true depiction of reality. From childhood we are taught to be grateful. Say your morning prayer to welcome the day and asking for the courage to face it and before sleeping , say a thanksgiving prayer for protecting you from all the hurdles and confinements. But as we grow up, somewhere amidst our own issues or frustrations we forget this daily ritual that empowers us from all the devil vibes. We only feel that our prayers are not audible or not manifested at the right moment but reality is that we are not seeking help or remembering God with the same faith or trust that used to lie in young age. In these lines, poet asks to ponder on the faith with which we seek our Almighty for helping us in trivial conditions.

Karishma expertly crafts their conversations, which serve as a source of illumination and empowerment for Moonshine. Her each prose is poetic and evocative, drawing readers into Moonshine's world and making them feel her struggles and triumphs. The imagery and symbolism employed throughout the book add layers of depth to the narrative, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. The pacing is well-balanced, allowing readers to savor each conversation and absorb the wisdom imparted.

Overall, "Mystical Narratives" is a collection of mesmerizing conversations between moonlight and moonshine that celebrate the human spirit of their zeal to grow and get better through deep meditations intended at self-discovery. Indirectly the learning of wisdom leaves an long lasting impact. Worth reading, do grab it!

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...
