About

Hi, I’m Poornima Verghese-Ram. Thank you for visiting Thy Name Be Zen, a spiritual blog with a personal agenda.

What led me to create this blog is the simple desire to gain clarity in my spiritual pursuit.

Being meditative, blissful, content or at the very least positive and stress-free is no mean feat. It takes an enormous amount of discipline and perseverance to make these qualities a way of life and a sustaining reality, depending on where we are plotted on the spiritual graph.

More particularly, to me that means struggling with my faith, renewing pacts with my inner demons and meandering through an endless barrage of questions that challenge my beliefs, all of which have made my spiritual pathway look more like a maze and less like a straight line.

So I write to make sense of it all, to sieve my thoughts through a rational frame and catch whatever remains, which makes for the bones and flesh of Thy Name Be Zen.

And I publish because I know there are some seven other like-minded souls out there who can relate to what I write.

If you are one such person then Journey begins is the place to start.
