Ep 2: Ancient stories for today-Onam Every year K Ep 2: Ancient stories for today-Onam

Every year King Mahabali returns to his land, and the people welcome him with pookolams, dances and sadhyas cooked with their bountiful harvests.
They love him because he showed up. He taught us what accountability means.

When I shared this story at the circle, every child was able to identify someone in their lives who was a true friend, and someone who wasnt a Mahabali ( as a 7 year old said).

Maybe this is a great time to have this conversation with your children (and maybe yourselves) . A good time to look at people's actions and words. A good time to start showing up as the highest version of yourself.

A thoughtfully built bookset/ shelf/ library is an A thoughtfully built bookset/ shelf/ library is an act of love.
This is also why I loveeee running bookclubs and circles- the curation does the bulk of the work.

Representation is not just ticking a box but children being able to say
1. I see myself in a story.
2. Im able to see beyond myself 
3. I can step into someone else's story.

Tell us in comments, your favourite mirror, window and door.💜

There are multiple legends associated with this be There are multiple legends associated with this beautiful festival. One speaks of Charumathi, one of Padmavathy, another of Chitranemi. 

I am not sure which one is true, maybe they all are. But today, I am soaking in all the feels of community.

To all the Lakshmis in our lives- you know those people..the ones who touch you in ways you do not think possible. The ones you receive good vibes from. The ones who share their love, their friendship, their ideas, their gifts with grace. The ones who vibrate with an energy that uplifts everyone around them.
May you know them, may you be them.

Share this with a Lakshmi in your life.🌈
