This poem may unleash a catastrophe of excessive self-love, unshakeable confidence, and irreversible liberation from societal expectations. Prolonged exposure might result in a perpetual smile, and an uncontrollable urge to dance in front of the mirror. Proceed with caution (and a teeny-weeny bit of humour)! Read at your own risk. :P

This poem sketches my 24-day transformative journey in the heart of the Himalayas. Immersed in intense sadhana, I spent 12-15 hours a day meditating in a small, secluded room, stripped of all life’s luxuries. Facing the raw elements with unwavering resolve—no comforts, only the bare essentials—the cold, solitude, and austerity became my companions. Each challenge purified my soul and brought me closer to the Divine. Through this journey, I discovered not just a way to survive but a way to truly live, experiencing the profound happiness of simply being.
