Not everyone will understand this.
Good.
101 hours of fasting.
A conscious piercing of the body.
An offering to Maa Kali.
But this was not random.
This was done on Meru —
the day the साधक stands at the axis.
Like Mount Meru — the center of all existence,
Meru is a reminder:
align your spine, align your life.
This is where discipline is tested.
This is where devotion stops being comfortable.
Pain was not the goal.
Presence was.
Fasting stripped the noise.
The piercing broke resistance.
The ritual burned what I was still holding onto.
This is not self-harm.
This is conscious fire.
Most people avoid discomfort.
Few offer themselves into it.
I chose the day of alignment.
I chose the fire.
I chose Her.
