Book
Illusions of this World
“Tejal’s poetry pulses with a quiet certainty: that the world is both within us and beyond us, that humanity is a delicate echo of something immeasurably vast, something neither fully graspable nor entirely foreign. In this space, between self and cosmos, between identity and surrender, Tejal’s voice becomes not a doctrine, but a gentle rhythm—a reminder that each of us is capable of navigating our own unraveling, of shedding the illusions we carry and stepping into something deeper. Here she is not seeking to explain, but to stir.”

About the Book
What if your deepest ache was a portal to your true power?
In Illusions of This World, poet and transformational leader Tejal Tarro invites readers on a lyrical journey through grief, longing, healing, and awakening. These raw, evocative poems emerge from the threshold where our personal breakdowns become divine breakthroughs that illuminate the quiet strength that lives beneath our pain and the wild power that rises through radical love.
With vulnerability and compassion, Tejal explores themes of spiritual transformation, human embodiment, ancestral healing, and emotional liberation, all in service of reclaiming our creative power. Her words are tender enough to soothe old wounds and clear enough to display illusions.
Perfect for readers of Rupi Kaur, Mary Oliver, or Rainer Maria Rilke, this book is a sanctuary for anyone navigating:
- The ache of separation or loss
- Burnout from performance or perfectionism
- The longing to live with more meaning, beauty, and authenticity
-
A calling to embody the sacred and awaken divine love
Whether you’re grieving, evolving, or simply searching for truth in a chaotic and divisive world, these poems offer an invitation: to feel more deeply, love more freely, and trust more wildly than ever before.
Step into the sacred unraveling. Remember the love that holds you.

Her writing is a contemplative and vulnerable exploration at the intersection of the self, the social, and the spiritual. She delves into the subtle nuances of life, drawing out deep insights that invite us into self-inquiry: What does it mean to truly know ourselves while letting go of who we think we are?

She meets each day with reverence for the intimacy of simple moments, deep gratitude for her connection to family and friends, and devoted presence in her daily practices of meditation, reading, yoga, dancing, and immersion in nature.
