This book is born from a confrontation - with the six enemies of the mind: Kama (lust), Krodha (anger), Lobha (greed), Moha (attachment), Mada (pride), and Matsarya (envy). Known collectively as the Shadripus, they have shaped our thoughts, twisted our actions, and, too often, masked our better selves. These poems do not offer salvation. They don't moralize or pretend to preach. They are explorations - sometimes raw, sometimes restrained - of the chaos these inner forces stir. Each piece tries to hold up a mirror, to ask what it means to be human in the grip of emotions we rarely admit to but constantly wrestle with. This book is not a doctrine. It's a dialogue.
