The seed of my mission
In December 2022, at Mumbai airport, while going to Goa on a late night flight, I bought a delicate heart-shaped leaf bookmark without knowing it was a bodhi leaf - a symbol of awakening & peace.
In February 2023, I had a dream of a tree with two leaves. One leaf carried a smiling photo of me, while the other carried the photo of a man I do not recognize. Spiritually, a tree with only two leaves signifies a shared destiny.
Months later, in October 2023, Whisper for Peace was born while in February 2024, the campaigns had begun.
Since then, it has been a long solitary journey dedicated to Peace. All my logos were inspired by subsequent dreams of falling cream leaves.
I would often hold this bodhi leaf bookmark while reflecting, or sleeping with my Bible beside me - like an unspoken companion.
Then, in February 2026, on an impulse, I searched online for another bookmark like it.
Remarkably, I found its exact twin matching almost perfectly in every ridge, curve, & bend.
When I finally joined both the leaves together, something within me felt complete. As if somewhere, another soul carries the exact matching frequency of this purpose — the “other leaf” on the same tree.
Whether it's a soulmate or a spiritual counterpart, the leaves keep falling together as if to remind me: I am not carrying this mission alone.
