Her name is Patricia Narayan.

She was born in Nagercoil, Tamil Nadu.

At the age of seventeen, she married a man against her family’s wishes, and for that decision she was disowned.

Within months, she discovered that her husband was addicted to alcohol and drugs, and that he was abusive.

About a year into the marriage, with two young children to protect, she walked away and returned to her father’s home.

She was barely eighteen.

She had no degree and almost no money.

What she did have was a talent for cooking.

She borrowed a small amount from her mother, began making jams and pickles at home, and sold them locally.

The response gave her hope.

On June 21, 1982, she opened a small food cart on Chennai’s Marina Beach.

On the first day, she sold just one cup of coffee for fifty paise.

The very next day, she sold snacks worth six to seven hundred rupees.

She kept going.

Over the years, the small cart grew into a catering business serving office canteens and feeding hundreds of people every day.

Life tested her again.

Her husband died.

Later, her daughter and son in law were killed in a road accident.

She carried on despite the loss.

In memory of her daughter, she opened a chain of restaurants and named it after her.

Today, the chain has around fourteen outlets and employs more than two hundred people.

In 2010, the woman who once sold a single cup of coffee on a beach was named India’s Woman Entrepreneur of the Year.

Follow for stories India deserves to remember.

புத்தி ஸ்வாதீனத்தோட உடல் நலத்தோடு சொத்து சுகத்தோடு இருக்கும் அம்மாக்களின் நிலமையே கேள்விக்குறியாக ஆக்கப்பட்டிருக்கும் தற்காலத்துக்கு அவசியமான பதிவு

அம்மாங்கறவ நம்மள���க்கு அந்த அனாதைப்பட்டம் கெடைக்காம பரம உபகாரம் பண்ணியிருக்கா.....

��ெரியவாளிடம் ஒருவர் வந்து நமஸ்காரம் பண்ணிவிட்டு கொஞ்சம் தயங்கி நின்றார்.
" என்ன?" என்பது போல் பெரியவா பார்த்தார்.
" இல்ல....வந்து....எங்கம்மாக்கு புத்தி ஸ்வாதீனம் இல்ல......"

பெரியவா எதுவும் பேசாமல் அவரையே பார்த்துக் கொண்டிருந்தார்.

"... வாஸக்கதவை தொறந்து போட்டுட்டு எங்கியாவது போய்டறா! அப்றம் அங்க இங்க அலஞ்சு தேடி கண்டு பிடிக்க வேண்டியிருக்கு! ஆத்துல வேற யாருமே இல்ல....அதுனால,.........."

"அத��னால?....."

"அம்மாவ....மடத்துல கொண்டு வந்து விட்டுடலாமா?......"இழுத்தார்.

"நல்லவேளை....எங்கியாவது கண்காணாத காட்டுல கொண்டு போய் விட்டுடலாமான்னு கேக்காம, அந்த மட்டுல, எங்கிட்ட கொண்டு வந்து விடலாமான்னு கேக்கத் தோணித்தே ஒனக்கு!"
பெரியவா சற்று கடுமையாகவும், வேதனையோடும் கூறினார்.

"பாரு ....தாயார்ங்கறவ தெய்வம்!

'தாயாருக்கு மேல் தெய்வமில்லே; ஏகாதஸிக்கு மேல் வ்ரதமில்லே'ன்னு பழ���ொழியே உண்டு

என்ன பண்ணறது? தாயார்கள் பாடு இந்த மாதிரி ஆயிடுத்து!." என்று சொல்லிக் கொண்டே எழுந்து உள்ளே போய் விட்டார்.

பக்தரோ...."ச்சே! என்ன செஞ்சுட்டேன்! பெரியவாகிட்டயா இப்டி பேசிட்டேன்!"
தவித்துவிட்டார்! அதோடு, தன் தவறை உணர்ந்தும் விட்டார்.

பெரியவா கொஞ்ச நேரம் கழித்து வெளியே வந்தார்.
"பெரியவா க்ஷமிக்கணும். எங்கம்மாவைப் பத்தி தப்பா பேசிட்டேன்"கெஞ்சினார்.

ஶாந்தரூபமான பெரியவா ���வரை முன்னிட்டு, நம் எல்லோருக்கும் [முக்யமாக, 'பெரியவாதான் எல்லாம்! 'என்று சொல்லிக் கொண்டு அலைபவர்களுக்கும்] முக்யமான உபதேஸத்தை அருளினார்.

"வயோதிக காலத்ல பெத்தவாளை காப்பாத்த வேண்டியது பிள்ளேளோட கடமை; அம்மா, அப்பா ஶாபம் குடுத்தா......... பின்னால வர்ற குடும்பமே வீணாப் போய்டும்! தனியா ஒன்னால அம்மாவை கவனிச்சுக்க முடியலேன்னா...ஒரு ஆஸாமியை ஒத்தாஸைக்கு வெச்சுக்கோ.... ! பத்து கொழந்தேள்னாலும், அம்மாக்காரி கஷ்டமோ, நஷ்டமோ வளக்கலையா?

பாவம் ஏதோ கர்மா....புத்தி ஸ்வாதீனத்ல இல்லேன்னா....தொரத்தி விட்டுடுவேளா

எங்கியாவது? மனுஷாளுக்கும், ம்ருகத்துக்கும் அப்றம் என்ன வித்யாஸம்? இதே நீ பெத்த கொழந்தைன்னா....இப்டி கேப்பியா?"
" மன்னிச்சிடுங்கோ! பெரியவா மனஸை ரொம்ப நோக அடிச்சுட்டேன். அம்மாவை நல்லபடி பாத்துக்குவேன்....."

"ஸந்தோஷம்..... லோகத்ல, எத்தன��யோ கொழந்தேள் அனாதையா திரியறதுகள். அம்மாங்கறவ நம்மளுக்கு அந்த அனாதைப்பட்டம் கெடைக்காம பரம உபகாரம் பண்ணியிருக்கா.....அவளோட வ்ருத்த தஸைல, அவளை நல்லபடி கவனிச்சுக்கற பாக்யம் எல்லாருக்கும் கெடைக்காது....ஒனக்கு கெடச்சிருக்கு...."

ஆஸிர்வாதம் செய்தார். கண்களில் கண்ணீரோடு, தன் அம்மாவுக்கு நல்லதொரு பிள்ளையாக, திரும்பிப் போனார் அந்த பக்தர்.

✨ MYTH BUSTING MONDAY ✨

❌ Myth: Bloating is always just a digestion issue.

✅ Fact: Persistent bloating that continues for weeks should never be ignored. It can sometimes be an important warning sign of ovarian cancer. Early awareness can save lives. 💙🎗️

[Sadhguru @SadhguruJV]

Bharat is a land of seekers. Even when the so-called Divine entities came, people asked them a thousand questions. This is the only culture on the planet where you can even question God because here, authority is not the Truth; Truth is the only authority.

Only a Hindu baby shower ceremony is so beautiful and makes the to- be mother feel so special

The extra large snacks symbolize abundance, prosperity, and enough for the mother and child 🧡🧡🧡

Experiences with Maha Periyava: Periyava resolves the issue amicably

There were two brothers, inheriting their ancestral land, the northern and southern portions, which had to be divided between the two of them. The southern portion was more fertile and yielded more while the northern one was less productive. Both wanted the southern portion and there was a quarrel over the division of the land.

Neither would give in and the quarrel worsened. Both refused to come to any kind of compromise, like drawing lots or something like that. The younger brother wielded clout locally and so he got a band ready to support his claim over the southern portion.

Suddenly one day, Periyava went to that village in the dead of the night and lay down on the pyol of the elder brother’s house. No one was aware of this. That night, the younger brother came with some of his henchmen who wielded scythes, and on reaching the house of his elder brother was shocked to see Periyava’s palanquin near the house. Periyava was seated on the pyol.

Summoning the man closer, Periyava asked, “Who are these with you?”

The man was stunned and stood speechless in fear. Then sending word to their agent, Periyava asked him what the matter was.

After listening to the whole story, Periyava said, “Listen! You can take the whole of it, the northern and southern portions. Take everything. I will take care of your elder brother. It does not matter that he gets nothing . . .”

The man fell down in prostration and said, “I don’t need a share at all, Periyava . . .

What does it matter, northern and southern portions . . .”

“Then why these scythes? Come, slice my neck off, come on, here it is….”

Then Periyava called the two brothers and said, “Take what you want of the land.”

The elder one said, “Let my brother take what he wants, Periyava.”

The younger one said, “I am ready to go by whatever my elder brother says.”

The whole thing fizzled out to nothing at all!

DEEPLY UNSETTLING !

Watching Tamil Actor Ravi Mohan break down so publicly was deeply unsettling.

"I am a quiet person. So, everyone thinks I am weak.I am quitting acting until I get my divorce. I am being prevented from meeting my own children"

"To this day, I do not have a single personal bank account. I had only one joint account.Even if I withdrew a small amount, I would get an immediate call asking why I took the money"

Whenever there is a marital dispute, society almost instantly assumes that only the woman is suffering. But relationships are complicated, painful, and emotionally devastating for everyone involved.

Men are human too. They have emotions, fears, anxieties, and breaking points. They can also go through mental trauma, loneliness, emotional harassment, separation from children, public humiliation, and silent depression.

Supporting women and acknowledging women’s pain is absolutely important. But empathy cannot be selective. Compassion cannot become gender specific.
The way many people mocked, judged, and targeted Ravi Mohan without even pausing to understand his emotional state is honestly worrying.

A man crying in public should not become entertainment.A father speaking about emotional pain should not become a meme.

Sometimes the strongest thing a man does is to admit that he is hurt.
