still soaked in desert, I’m sending you love and golden light from faraway Kazakhstan, a place that still feels foreign to me.
With the rocks within me, in my tissue, the fire in my soul, the water of the oceans flowing through my body, and the air that connects me with everything, I walk across a seabed that is millions of years old. What you see in the pictures is exactly that. The seabed. You can still find shark teeth here.

This landscape, Mangystau, in western Kazakhstan, reminds me of the potential within all of us. Our innate capacity to love. To be. To flow and to follow our very own impulses, the ones rooted in wisdom and connection.
I have no words for this landscape. It lives in me, moves in me. The desert leads. I play within it and let myself be guided. It sings me songs of freedom and belonging, of unity and peace.
I’d like to stay in it forever, to let myself be carried. Everything in me seems to dissolve into these vast expanses.

All I can share of my dance with the rocks, the winds and the salt beneath me are these pictures. Please receive them as a gift.
I don’t know if you can feel this sacredness, beyond this screen. And maybe it is possible.

Remember: we are part of this sublime beauty, this wildness lives in your cells too.
May you feel the same humility that took hold of me while being in these places.
Mangystau:



Much love, Nirmala.
