The black rose

-

 A rose unfolds with morning light,

Petals soft, a pure delight.

Its fragrance drifts on gentle air,

Whispering beauty everywhere.


Thorns may guard its tender bloom,

Yet in its heart, there’s no room

For anything but love and grace,

A fleeting smile time can’t erase.

Letter from laundry to kids

-
I see you guys promenading in fresh clothes, checking yourselves in the mirror while hardly noticing that I lie idly here. That is why I have never wanted to be born human. Your memory is the shortest. After taking me off after the sweaty game, you felt disgusted by how I smelt. I am here to remind you that we shall soon be together once again. I will cover your nakedness and still protect you from the elements. You know we cannot help but crack smiles as to how you feel mighty and powerful and look down on us. Enjoy your moment while it last because you know it never last that long. While pondering on washing machines, I have a few words to say. We know I have lost our luster since the days I was bought. I have bulged here and there and shrunk in all the important places. But it is not my fault for not bringing out your styles as before. All the same, do you think we would fare well with the corrosive bleaches that do not only eat the dirt but our very soul? Would you guys survive i...

Young woman breastfeeding an old man in prison cell

-
This painting of a young woman breastfeeding an old man in a prison cell was sold for Euros 30 million. The painting may look perverse but the story behind is from historical records. The poor man was sentenced to "death by starvation" for stealing a loaf of bread during the reign of Louis XIV in France. The woman was his only daughter and the only visitor to his cell. She was allowed to visit him daily but was frisked thoroughly such that no food was taken in. When after 4 months the man still survived with no weight loss, the authorities were perplexed and started spying on her in the cell and to their utter astonishment found her breastfeeding her father to the fullest sharing her baby's milk. The judges then realizing the compassion and love of the woman for her father, pardoned the father and set him free. This piece of history brings into focus how deep is a woman's compassion in our daily lives that men often tend to overlook. ©️ Successful Flow

Why Bhutanese worship phullus spiritually and culturally

-
 In Bhutan, the worship and painting of phallus (lingam) has deep cultural and spiritual meaning. It is not about sexuality but about protection, fertility, and blessing. The tradition is closely linked to the 15th-century saint Drukpa Kunley, popularly called the “Divine Madman.” Here’s why Bhutanese worship or display the phallus: 1. Symbol of Fertility and Prosperity The phallus represents life, creation, and fertility. Many Bhutanese believe it helps ensure healthy children, good harvests, and abundance in life. 2. Protection from Evil Spirits Phallus symbols are painted on houses or carved as wooden figures to ward off evil spirits and the “evil eye.” People believe it keeps away gossip, jealousy, and negative energies. 3. Legacy of Drukpa Kunley Drukpa Kunley used humor, shocking behavior, and sexual symbolism to teach Buddhism in ways ordinary people could understand. He used the phallus as a symbol to break hypocrisy and ego. For example, he is believed to have subdued demo...
