I watched the first diya of the evening flicker and then grow steady, and it felt like a metaphor for my own life lately. We all go through moments of uncertainty where our flame feels fragile, but today is a reminder that we can always find our inner strength. Dhanteras is about grounding ourselves in the belief that we are meant for abundance and that the universe supports our honest efforts. May your light never falter and your path always be illuminated by the gold of your own spirit.
