Deepika's Garden by Shal

 


About the Book

To be or not to be what others want you to be – that is the eternal, existential question. This book takes a plunge into the psyche of a woman, who chooses to be herself, despite insufferable pressure. Though she is penalised, neglected and sidelined for not meeting the expectations of others, for not fitting in, she moves on with broken mast, tattered sails and damaged hull. Does she manage to anchor safely in calm waters? Refusing to be bogged down, she takes the daring journey to find her ‘soul stone’. There is a momentary setback when she is confronted with the truth. But faith keeps her surging ahead and she sows the seeds of invincible joy in the garden of her mind.

About the Author

Lucky to be born to parents who never forced their dreams on their children, the author grew up in a healthy environment, in the constant company of books. Sucking the nectar from the wonderland of wisdom and imagination, she remained in the enticing and cosy cocoon. One day, to her utter surprise, she felt soft, silky wings sprouting forth, eager to spread out and taste the wind. The wings kept changing colours, sometimes soft hues of baby pink and shimmering, pale blue. Sometimes deep bottle green or simple, blood-red patches. With a mind seasoned with pain and pleasure, the ebb and flow of joy and sorrow, she has dared to fly and tread the royal path of the chosen few. Her humble pranams to all those who have gone before her.
