Amrita Raichand : Chef & Beyond's video: Dussehra Special Message Amrita Raichand

Dussehra may be over but it leaves us behind with many learnings. I was shooting all of yesterday, infact till this morning 1 am (those of you who were tracking my stories would know ☺️) While others were burning Ravan effigies, my team and I were burning the midnight oil ☺️ Finally when my hubby(who only realised at 1.22 am that his wife was missing 😅) called to check on me, and when he heard about how my day went, said - Wow that’s a truly fruitful “Dusshehra” All my exhaustion disappeared in a moment when I realised how profound those words were. I felt happy, satisfied and proud of myself to say the least. Let me share today something very painful that I experienced a while ago! I lost my MOST PRECIOUS friend and mentor; a very very special human being who had touched many hearts. After losing focus and completely shutting shop for a few days, I literally felt him rebuke me one day while I was meditating. “Get up and get back to work! That’s your dharma! People and loved ones will come and go but you cannot deviate from your path of achieving your goals till you are alive!” And that was that! Since then I’ve drowned myself in work, I’m smiling and laughing and doing everything exactly like the way I used to! Ofcourse it’s tough at times and also fake at times but I’m warding off the EVIL thought of SELF-PITY and SORROW and embracing the GOOD of hardwork and passion! once again! May the power WITHIN YOU always help you make the RIGHT CHOICES IN LIFE!! ❤️🙏
