This connection has evolved into a lifelong quest to discover her serenity, joy, and meaning in the enduring honesty of nature. "Whenever I can, I make eager attempts to have a word with this wilderness - to decipher its speechless expressions, to make at least some meaning of the holy silence it never breaks," she says. Through her nature writings and poetry, Gyaneshwari shares her interpretations of the beauty, wonder, wisdom, and joy she finds in the natural world, and explores our connection to it.
