When I wrote this chapter, it took me back to when I visited the Veerakaliamman temple in Singapore. I somehow always feel that I don’t know enough to propitiate the ‘roudra’ forms of our Gods and Goddesses, and I carry that same feeling through writing this. I don’t feel like I lead a disciplined enough life to write about or channel our deities in my writing, and I feel guilty about dealing with that with avoidance instead of stepping up and doing better. That unease persists in this chapter.
The shade thrown on TOI was just perfect :)
