Happy 103 birthday
Grandpa,Your 103rd birthday draws my heart close, hugging you across the gentle veils. You were giver and healer to every soul, touching lives with hands like soft moonlight and endless love.
I remember you holding my small hand, walking me through Ramakrishna Ashram garden, training me to lean on spiritual strength, to surrender all. The responsibility you placed on me was huge—even as you left, I tried carrying it, offering it up in Shiva's abode.
As Rumi whispers, what we do for ourselves fades, but what we do for others endures forever—like your gifts to us all.
Your sankalpa wove our family as one—me and Amma, holding it alive, like the dream you breathed into us. Amma joined you in heaven ten moons ago, both swaying free in Shiva's tender dance. So blessed you are there, wrapped in His quiet light together.
Thank you, Grandpa, a million times over, for her—your wonderful daughter, my guru, the warmth in my days. May you, Amma, Daddy, Chikkama, and Mama all be happy forever in Shiva's abode.
I love you forever.
Your little girl,
