Support This Publication — Keep the Forgotten Rites Alive
Every contribution keeps me digging deeper into the stories the world chose to bury.
If you’re reading this, you’ve probably spent some time with the gods, ghosts, and rites I write about here.
This publication is a labor of love. Every post involves hours of research — cross-referencing Puranic texts, tracking down regional folklore, reading academic papers on ritual traditions, and then translating all of that into stories that actually make you feel something.
I don’t run ads. I don’t do sponsored posts. I don’t water down the stories to make them more palatable.
But mythology research doesn’t pay for itself. Your support — however small — directly funds this work and tells me these forgotten stories are worth telling.
Here’s how you can help:
🪔 Offer a Dakshina
A one-time contribution of any amount. Think of it as lighting a diya for the stories that almost didn’t survive.
→ Offer a Dakshina via UPI / Cards
