Featured Books
1. Decoding MITHYA
In the Silence, We Find Our Voice
The journey begins by questioning the invisible beliefs that quietly shape our identities.
In Decoding MITHYA, Dr. Smita Kamat Ghosh explores the deeply rooted myths surrounding womanhood that continue to influence how society views women—and how women often view themselves. Guided by the thoughtful voice of Sakhi, the book gently uncovers common stereotypes surrounding gender roles, femininity, menstruation, financial independence, childhood conditioning, and identity.
Rather than simply challenging social norms, the book invites readers to pause, reflect, and examine the stories they have inherited. Every chapter encourages honest conversations about the beliefs that often remain unquestioned for generations.
Decoding MITHYA is not merely a discussion about women—it is an invitation to reclaim one’s voice, redefine identity, and embrace authenticity through awareness and self-reflection.

2. Beyond Mithya: Shades of Being
The Journey from Illusion to Inner Truth Continues
After recognizing the myths that shape our lives, the next step is discovering who we truly are beyond them.
Beyond Mithya: Shades of Being continues the powerful journey started in Decoding MITHYA, moving beyond identifying societal conditioning toward understanding the deeper layers of self.
Through psychological reflections, real-life experiences, and thoughtful observations, Dr. Ghosh explores the beliefs, emotions, and inner narratives that influence our choices, relationships, and perception of reality.
