‘Self’ is an ever-evolving, infinite, complex, and somewhat incomprehensible existence.

“The Gift of Self” is a reflective outcome of the author's introspection, as she delved into the subject of spirituality to understand her connect with the Universe, and with our own being (body, mind, heart and soul), and expressed her understanding by quilling verses. Each poem accompanies the ruminations, thought process, or understanding that led to the revelation expressed in the poem. Sometimes, it will turn out as a moment of epiphany, and at other times, it will leave you calm and tranquil, as you will have your insights while reading the pages.

The book is divided into six categories: Path to enlightenment, Quest for Self, Awakening, Insights, Acceptance and Divinity.

It is a gift to humanity with the hope that it helps the readers in attaining joy, tranquility, and balance on their inner journey.

  When a child is diagnosed with autism, the world around them often changes more than the child themselves. This book is the story of that world—of a mother who chose to meet uncertainty with faith, redefine success, and celebrate the beauty found in the smallest milestones.
Through intimate reflections and lived experiences, Dr. Shipra Bhatia invites you into a decade of learning, unlearning, and transforming. More than a memoir, it is a journey of awakening—to the truth that autism is not a limitation, but a different language of love, connection, and brilliance.
In these pages, you will find not just the emotional highs and lows of parenting a neurodivergent child, but also a rallying cry for awareness, acceptance, and authentic inclusion. Dr. Bhatia’s voice speaks for thousands of parents navigating similar paths—strong, uncertain, hopeful, and resilient.
This book is for every caregiver seeking answers, every educator needing perspective, and every human willing to see beyond labels. It calls on us to listen with empathy, support with compassion, and love without conditions.
Because the journey with autism isn’t just about the child—it’s about all of us, and the world we choose to build together. 

This is the rebellion in print. The truths that rattle comfort zones, challenge the herd mindset, and shake the system. These are not Pinterest-friendly affirmations or sugar-coated one-liners to make you feel temporarily good. These are raw, unfiltered, and brutally honest thoughts they hope you never think—let alone write down.

If you’ve ever been told to stay quiet, play nice, or tone it down, this book is your permission slip to do the exact opposite.

Warning: This book may cause sudden clarity, uncontrollable truth-telling, and a shift in how you see the world.
