The story "અંતરનો અરીસો" by હિમાંશુ મેકવાન, specifically part 3, presents two themes: "તપની ઋતુ" (The Season of Tapa) and "શ્વાસોના આવાગમન" (The Flow of Breath). In "તપની ઋતુ," the narrative emphasizes the importance of introspection and self-discovery as one embarks on a journey through life. The author reflects on the ease of existence, suggesting that since life is transient, there is little to worry about. It encourages embracing life's challenges with the understanding that ultimately, we must prepare for what comes after life. The second part, "શ્વાસોના આવાગમન," explores the cyclical nature of life through the metaphor of breath. It raises profound questions about existence and the pursuit of desires, prompting introspection about what one has truly gained in life. It questions whether the joy lies in living or in the inevitability of death, urging readers to cherish the present moment rather than getting lost in the pursuit of future achievements. Overall, the story encapsulates a philosophical approach to life, encouraging mindfulness and self-reflection amidst the chaos of existence.
