Yes, he must be a father of a daughter.

Dr.

 In the corridors of your school, faced with scolding, would you resort to threatening by saying, "I'll tell my father"? Confronted with abuse, would you gather the courage to admonish the wrong doer, knowing that your father stands as a shield? 

In the face of eve-teasing, would you dare to slap back, fueled by the confidence instilled by your father's strength?

He is the soldier to protect you. 

As you scribble the worst strokes on paper during your childhood, did you ever notice the day your father brought drawing books, envisioning an artist within you? 

He is the one who trust you before you have gained self-esteem on yourself. 

A passing comment about your favorite color—did your father embark on a citywide search for that perfect dress?

Your casual words means a lot to him. 

 When seeking the best college, did your father endure nights in uncomfortable places just to ensure you had a smooth admission process?

He always wanted the best to give you. 

Did he scold you relentlessly, perhaps even stopped talking to you at times, all in the name of keeping you safe? The answer resonates: 

A naive person who thinks that children will be attentive only if he shows his anger. 

Did your father cease communication due to your choice of a life partner, expressing concern and possibly doubting your maturity and later did he felt very proud of your decision for your life partner by saying "even If I try also I can't bring a groom like your husband"?...He would have worried about your happiness or he would have feel the emptiness and hollowness as you are leaving him. This seperation may be intolerance, grief to him! 

 Did you discover Swami Vivekananda's books during childhood without explicitly being told, implying that your father introduced them, shaping your values and instilling a desire for ethical strength in you and your siblings? 

While you may long for a comforting hug with your father but, his serious demeanor might evoke worry.

 Yes, He must be a Father of a daughter.


"In school's scold and strife, my shield he'd be,

Against abuse and teasing, his strength guards me.

Scribbling dreams on paper, his vision set free,

A father's love, my first hero's legacy."

To be honest....weather it is a SON or DAUGHTER,father is the the unsung hero, may not always express love in cinematic embraces, but his age-old gestures form a unique language of affection. In the journey of life, a father remains the first hero, an irreplaceable. 

A child is not alone with out father! even after his passing, the love and responsibility a father feels for his children are carried forward and entrusted to the divine.

A last letter to father from his daughter

"Nanna, even though you are no more physically, I want to thank you for the values ​​you instilled in me and the practical life lessons we learned, which made me a strong woman. I take comfort in knowing that you are now at peace, free from pain and suffering. I remember the happy moments we spent together. Thanks, Nanna".

The greatness of a father lies in his humility; he may not boast in your presence, yet he must be exceedingly proud of you. He may deny you some requests, yet he never ceases to fulfill your deepest desires. He carries a multitude of fears for his daughter's safety, happiness, and well-being, yet he maintains a facade of unwavering confidence.

#Dedicated to all Fathers and all Men in my life .. You all are the Unsung heroes.

That Random day in my life.....

Dr.
 That day began like any other, filled with gratitude to Narasimha and hope for the day ahead. I went to work, but by mid-day, something shifted. I fell sick—suddenly, unexpectedly—and as the hours passed, my condition worsened. It wasn’t just an ordinary illness; this time, it felt heavy, like a storm I couldn’t escape.  For a moment, I wondered if I would survive. And in that quiet space, where everything else faded, two thoughts consumed me: What about my son? Will my husband manage without me? And then a strange question arose—Is my purpose done? Am I leaving because I’ve already fulfilled what I came to do? ( may be if we feel that moments are our last seconds and if we feel that we don't see tomorrow,then the most precious things alone we might be remember and we would recollect ..it would have scroll down like a reel those precious moments, and so i felt about my son and husband)  After several tests, the diagnosis finally came through: viral and bacterial pneumoni...

The Bird Who Chose to Fly Higher

Dr.
  Hey all, Namasthe and Welcome to The Voice of Chittan ! I’m back with another soulful reflection, one that speaks to every heart that’s ever felt unheard, every spirit that’s been tested, and every dream that’s dared to rise above the noise. Today’s blog is a story of resilience, mindful living, and the quiet strength that often goes unnoticed, until it chooses to fly high. Let’s dive in. In a quiet forest, there lived a bird unlike the rest. It wasn’t the loudest, nor the fastest. It didn’t compete for attention or join the noisy flocks that filled the skies with chaos. This bird had a different way of being,it moved slowly, intentionally, and mindfully. Its path wasn’t always clear, but its heart was steady. Every day, it focused on what mattered,its purpose, its values, and its inner peace. But the world around it didn’t understand silence. A flock of noisy birds began to notice this quiet one. They squawked and laughed, mocking its calm demeanor. “Why are you so slow?” the...

The Beauty of Slowing Down

Dr.
  Hey all,Namaste. thank you for tuning in voice of chittan blog.  Today, I want to talk about something we often overlook but desperately need:  "the art of doing nothing.” Life has a funny way of surprising us, doesn’t it? There are days when no matter how hard we plan, things just don’t go our way. Deadlines get missed, expectations aren’t met, and sometimes, it feels like the world is rushing by while we’re stuck in slow motion. It’s frustrating, right? But what if I told you that these unexpected pauses are not failures—they’re opportunities? Opportunities to breathe. To reflect. To just be. Think about it. From the moment we wake up, we’re chasing something—goals, recognition, validation, or even the next item on our to-do list. But do we ever pause and ask ourselves, “Why?” Why are we running? And more importantly, where are we running to? Here’s the thing: not every day has to be about hitting targets or checking boxes. Sometimes, the most meaningful moments come ...

Your cracks in life are golden

Dr.
Hey all...Namaste🙂 let me tell you about something I recently came across that completely changed how I see life. It’s this Japanese philosophy called Kintsugi. Ever heard of it? It’s basically the art of fixing broken pottery with gold. But hang on, it’s way more than that. Imagine this—you drop your favorite ceramic mug. It shatters. The first instinct? Toss it..we will throw it away, isn't it? Because broken things are useless, isn't it? But this is Not in Kintsugi. In Kintsugi, those cracks are celebrated in its own way. You know how? They’re filled with gold. And when you look at the repaired piece, it’s not just a mug anymore. It’s a story, a piece of art. It’s more valuable than it was before. And that got me thinking—what if we looked at ourselves the same way? I am sure you agree with me if I say this..., life breaks all of us in some way. Maybe it’s a failed relationship, a career setback, losing someone you love, or just that quiet feeling that you’re not enough. We...

where true power lies??

Dr.
Namasthe to "Voice of Chittan" Readers!  As we sat together for a family movie night, immersed in the gripping tale unfolding on the screen, the hero stood alone, fighting against injustice. The villains, armed with massive weapons, seemed invincible, while the hero wielded nothing but a simple hammer. Watching intently, my son turned to me and asked, "How can he stop evil with just a hammer?" Without a second thought, completely absorbed in the moment, I responded, "Balam aayudham lo undadhu… daanni patte vaadilo untundhi!" (Strength is not in the weapon, but in the one who wields it.) As soon as I uttered those words, something struck me. I paused. I pondered. Wasn't this the essence of every great story, every legend, and every real-life victory? The Gandiva was powerful only because it was in Arjuna’s hands, used for a righteous cause. The Sudarshana Chakra became a force of protection and justice only when wielded by Lord Krishna. Hanuman, though ...

బలం నీ చేతిలో ఉన్న ఆయుధంలో కాదు…దృఢ సంకల్పంలో ఉంది.

Dr.
 మేమంతా ఒక సినిమా చూస్తూ ఆసక్తిగా మునిగిపోయాం. కథలో, ధర్మాన్ని కాపాడేందుకు పోరాడుతున్న హీరో ఒక్కడు. విలన్లు భారీ ఆయుధాలతో ఉగ్రరూపంలో కనిపిస్తున్నారు, కానీ హీరో చేతిలో కేవలం ఒక త్రిశూలం లాంటి సామాన్యమైన ఆయుధం మాత్రమే. With deep involved ..చూస్తున్న నా కొడుకు నన్ను ఆశ్చర్యంగా అడిగాడు, "అమ్మా, ఇతను ఈ చిన్న ఆయుధంతో ఎలా ఈ రాక్షసులను ఓడిస్తాడు?" సినిమాలో నేను అంతగా లీనమై, వెంటనే స్పందించాను, "బలం ఆయుధంలో ఉండదు… దాన్ని పట్టిన వాడిలో ఉంటుంది!" ఆ మాట నాకెందుకో లోపల ఏదో ఆలోచనను రేకెత్తించింది. ఒక్కసారిగా ఆగిపోయి లోతుగా తర్కించాను. నిజంగా, ఇదేనా అన్ని మహాకావ్యాల సారం? నిజమైన శక్తి మన దగ్గర ఉన్న ఆయుధాల్లో కాదు, మన విశ్వాసంలో, మన నమ్మకంలో, మన ధైర్యంలో ఉంది. గాండీవం అర్జునుని చేతిలో ఉన్నందుకే ధర్మానికి సహాయపడింది. సుదర్శన చక్రం శ్రీకృష్ణుని జ్ఞానానికి లోబడి ధర్మరక్షణ చేసింది. హనుమంతుడు తన శక్తిని గుర్తించక ముందు సాధారణ వానరుడే… కానీ నమ్మకం కలిగిన క్షణమే అతను అపరమిత శక్తి పొందాడు. సుదర్శన చక్రం ఎందుకు కేవలం ఒక చక్రం కాదు? గాండీవం ఎందుకు సామాన్య ధనుస్సు కాదు? ఎందుకు అదే ఆయుధాలు ఇతర...

Sarvam Vishnumayam

Dr.
  Sarvam Vishnumayam Jagat..... The entire cosmos is pervaded by Vishnu. God is not confined to temples, names, forms, or rituals. He is the essence of everything, every being, every breath, every moment. He is the Atmic principle that resides quietly within and around us. Recently, during our spiritual trek to Ahobilam , a place soaked in the divine energy of Lord Narasimha, we encountered a profound moment of insight. As we descended the sacred hills, a group of fellow pilgrims were discussing the story of Prahlada and Hiranyakashipu . Their view was that Prahlada was the cause of his father’s death. Listening to this, I felt moved to gently intervene not to correct, but to share a deeper perspective. I said, “Prahlada was not the cause of Hiranyakashipu’s death. He was the reason for his moksha. ” Hiranyakashipu’s end was inevitable—not because of hatred or vengeance, but because he had to be liberated from the cycle of ego, delusion, and material obsession. The Lord descen...
