Discover a world beyond the shadows of perfection…
In this heartwarming tale, Dr Auluck shares her life’s turning point—the birth of her son, Puneet, who was born with Down Syndrome. What initially appeared as a catastrophic event for a deeply intellectual mind led to a deep inner churning. As she grappled with the complexities of her child’s condition, she embarked on a path of self-discovery and profound empathy.
This book explores the author’s emotional journey through three sections: Her personal experiences challenging societal norms, insights into intellectual disability and its impact on personal development as a psychologist, and her role as an activist creating Muskaan—an adult training and employment centre for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Emphasising the importance of understanding their world, she advocates for holistic development to nurture responsible and emotionally stable adults. The book also highlights how her Vedanta-rooted vision provided strength amid life’s challenges.
A Mother’s Reflections is a raw and inspirational tale of personal growth, empathy, and social change, exploring the depths of humanity and the transformative power of love and acceptance.
