FAQs

Out of modesty and discernment, she removed the noisy bangles so the clinking would not reveal her presence—illustrating the value of simplicity and solitude.

Simplify habits and social noise, keep focused company, and create quiet time for japa, study, and reflection so devotion is not scattered.
