Have you ever tried to estimate your Self-Worth ?
Rumi's Wisdom of Guidance will help you estimate your Self-Worth !
I never attempted to estimate my self-worth. However there came a time when the society consistently tried to reduce and diminish my self worth. That is when i questioned my self-worth to Myself ? It became necessary for me to estimate my self-worth ; Not for the society but for MY-SELF.
In Retrospect -
In March 2018,after my return to India (in 2015) - Amidst the backdrop of Indian Society, my Marital Status (Single Unmarried Virgin) alone became the focal point, invoking FAKE SYMPATHY upon me often mislabeled as KINDNESS.
I never sought anyone's assistance; society attempted to impose its version of DILUTED KINDNESS upon me, subtly driven by their own sexual desires.
Imagine someone attempting to put the need for wealth and money into your Mind only to satisfy their own sexual needs ?
Something was being VIOLATED ! I never actively "sought assistance from men" in this lifetime. However when someone accused me of SEEKING ASSISTANCE FROM MEN, it made me realize that the VALUES my father instilled in me were being TRESPASSED by certain MEN.
Do some men enjoy making a woman feel Inadequate or it is that they are struggling with their own INSECURITIES contributing to a sense of SELF-DEFICIT in WOMEN ?
Yet i found myself uncertain about how to gauge my self-worth ?
Thats when i turned into Rumi's Wisdom of Guidance !
I understood that Iam Seeking Myself = Tat-Tvam-Asi !
The Self consist of both Masculine and Feminine Energies. My Masculine was MY FATHER.
There was already an Inner Balance and all that i was seeking was an Outer Balance !
I was not sure whether my father's narrative would succeed in garnering respect from these average individuals or further diminish my self-worth ?

Yet i found it imperative to validate and affirm my own Self-Worth, Prioritizing the need to convince myself. In this Journey, sharing my father's story became not just a means to persuade society, but a profound exercise in SELF-VALIDATION !
My Father was an epitome of KINDNESS AND COMPASSION !
My paternal grand mother passed away during my father's birth leading to my paternal grand father remarrying. When my father was 10 years old, my grand father who was a lawyer passes away. My father's step mother abandoned my father at his grand mother's place, transferring all his property in her name. My father not only lost his family legacy but also the legal rights to the property he rightfully owned.
Upon reaching the age of 18 many of my relatives advised my father to pursue legal action against my step-grand mother to secure his property rights ; However my father chose NOT TO engage in a legal dispute with his mother and willingly relinquished his legal entitlements.
The extensive vast property owned by my father is situated in close proximity to Raja Ravi Varma's summer fort in the Alappuzha district even today, yet we do not possess any rights to it !
My Father = My Warrior ; His values and principles helped me restore my SELF-WORTH and SELF-RESPECT ! The more distinct the RESONANCE of the DIVINE MASCULINE within me - The more SAFE I feel ;
My Father is the Epitome of Compassion !
Tat-Tvam-Asi
