Thanks Simon & Schuster for making a better poster than my screenshot. #tatalitlive2018 #mumbai #bookfestival #littfest

Mumbai Friends. I am at the Tata Literature Live Festival this coming weekend. On November 17 and 18th. Would love to see you and enjoy the city that never sleeps :-)

Thanks so much for the sampler boxes and clothes, Divya and Vikram. . . . . #earthistic #earthisticproduce #handmade #naturaldye #saris #wheatgrass #microgreens #herbs #manjistha #acnemask #herbsforacne #farmtotable #earthistic_official #indianclothes #indiancolours #naturaldyed #sareelove😍 #sareelove #sareenotsorry #saree_love #handmadeinindia

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama is a person like no other in today’s world. Statesman, Nobel laureate, spiritual leader, global teacher, part-time politician, leader of exiled Tibetans, right-royal celebrity, torch-carrier of a tradition dating back millennia, and perhaps most important to him, Buddhist monk. I was honored to meet him for a 45 minute interview at his hotel room. Equal parts playful and profound, I was touched by his grace. Thank you, Vidyaloke Foundation and Veer Singh for making this happen. Read about it in Mint today. With permission from His Holiness’s office, am able to share here. For lovers of handloom, my Saree is from Darshan Shah’s Weaver’s studio, Kolkata. . . . . . . #thedalailama #hisholinessthedalailama #buddhism #tibetanbuddhism #wisdom #spirituality #compassion #lovingkindnessmeditation #dalailamaquotes #dharamsala #vidyalokefoundation #conradhotel #bengaluru #dalailamatalks #interview #meditation #mindfulness #buddhist #teaching #ommanipademhum #theravada #inspirationalquotes #motivationalquotes #selfimprovement #dalailamateaching #dalailamawisdom #insightsfromthedalailama #innerpeace #happiness #dalailamafans

My friend, Viji Jayaraman’s fabulous home. She has taught me about saris, jewellery— running around Delhi jewellery stores with her is an education. And her home is an ode to Indian aesthetics. Great cook too. . . . . . . #homedecor #fabulous #homes #indianhomedecor #indianhomes #traditionalindianhome #indiancolours #greathomes #bengaluru_nodi #bangalore

In which I wax eloquent about the Clarendon Hills Astralis Shiraz from McLaren Vale, Australia. We picked eight 100-point wines as deemed by Robert Parker. At a wine dinner in Bangalore. Read about it in Mint Lounge here. https://www.livemint.com/Leisure/s8bfYt91NhRJrrypI3jk0H/Dining-with-the-perfect-wine.html . . . . . #winetasting #winelover #robertparker #wineadvocate #winery #clarendonhills #australianwine #shiraz #chateaularcisducasse #mchapoutier #taylorfladgateport #veuveclicquot

Forgiveness is the fragrance a flower gives out when it is crushed. Took an amazing trip recently to meet the jasmine pickers of Madurai. Women. Up at dawn. Picking Jasminum sambac flowers. For scents and fragrances that we spray on ourselves. Chanel No. 5, Joy by Jean Patou, J’Adore by Dior….it all starts in Madurai. . . . . . . #finefragrance #scents #perfumery #perfumes #jasmine #chanelno5 #joybyjeanpatou #dior #fragrance #scentoftheday #fragranceoils #perfumeshopping #chanelno5 #jasminescent #fragrancelover #instagood #picoftheday #fermenich #jasminesambac

This is what old college friends do. When Sujatha Suresh learned that I was staying at a hotel, she showed up, asked me to pack my bags and basically moved me to her home. Golden girl in a golden glow aided by some coffee and creme brûlée— that she picked at. #santanarow #sanjose #california #loyalfriends

I have my eyes closed but as Shivani Bhasin said to our Mount Holyoke WhatsApp group, “Shoba’s book launch, packed room and riveting intro by Gayatri.” Thanks @grshah . . . . . #crosswordbookstore #mumbai #booklaunch
