Theme: Sparking Metanoia

This event occurred on
February 24, 2019
Neemrana, Rajasthan
India

The most constant attribute amongst all the perceptions of a bewildered mind is the change. The perseverance they hold on to their whole lives , lies in the little things and this is how usually they define their rainbow.
This sense of holding on to their fidelity and acceptance of the prevailing isn’t merely because of a sudden transformation of heart, but because of the choices, the inevitable edge walks and psychotic breakdowns which made them steer through difficulties, using mere indomitable spirits as the propellor.
Metanoia, as the word means, paints the monochrome of this dual ratio of being frail and strong.
The spark, the auras which compel us to purge, be it people, things or the utter satisfaction is what keeps us from maintaining a futile effort to survive with the constant fear.
