Taj Mahal – A Mausoleum of Love

While speaking of exorbitant gifts through history, let’s not forget the grandest gift of love in all time, the Taj Mahal. The Taj Mahal has been hailed as the everlasting embodiment of true love over centuries and with reason. This splendid memorial is constructed entirely of white marble and is the universally admired masterpieces of Mughal architecture. It’s a real treat to watch the mausoleum on a full moon day; the marble’s glow seems to be emanating from the undying love of the world’s greatest lovers – Shah Jahan and his wife Mumtaz.

A Mere Lifetime Of Love Wasn’t Enough

Mumtaz Mahal, a princess of Persian origin, was Emperor Shah Jahan’s first and only true love. She died while giving birth to their 14^th child at the relatively young age of 39. When she died, leaving him to face his cruel son Aurengzeb all alone, his thoughts did not turn towards fighting for his rights as emperor of a large kingdom. Rather, the heartbroken emperor threw himself into building a monument of love for his beloved wife.

Out Of Great Grief Was Born The Taj

The Taj is a mute testament to the depth of the emperor’s love, and the lengths to which he was willing to go to declare his love and devotion. It took 22 long years and the sweat-filled labor of 20,000 workers and craftsmen to finish this monument. The Taj Mahal cost the emperor 32 million Indian Rupees. Today, the Taj is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Close to 4 million visitors every year pay homage to this ever-lasting monument of love, hoping that its presence will bend Cupid’s arrows their way!

Get Her A Gift That Endures

The Taj endures everything from wars to the vagaries of nature. So must your love. Show your love through a Woohoo.in gift card for the most enduring symbols of love – diamonds and gold from Tanishq or Joyalukkas. Elegantly crafted gold and diamond jewellery will be your Taj Mahal to her, completely her own; and something that will endure and will be passed on for generations.

Creating ripples of happiness

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.” ― Marcel Proust

20^th March has been marked as the International Day of Happiness by the United Nations. This day commemorates the adoption of the UN resolution, in 2011, which saw happiness as a “fundamental human goal”.

The International Day of Happiness was conceptualized by Jayme Illien with the belief that happiness is a basic human right for all human beings and that the “happiness movement” (supported and promoted by the likes of Pharrell Williams among others) is the key to achieving individual and global happiness.

The feeling of happiness and contentment comes from being aware and acknowledging the immense blessings and love that fill our lives. And how do we multiply this sense of happiness? We share it with others around us and see the ripples it creates.

This International Day of Happiness, make it a point to start your own happiness movement in your everyday life. Be it your family, friends, colleagues or acquaintances – reach out, connect and thank them for the little joys they bring into your life.

The Woohoo app makes it easy for you to do that by combining various features. It helps you convey your message with personalized electronic gift vouchers that are delivered instantly to your loved ones, anywhere in the country. Share memories with photographs from your gallery, add a voice note or a text message or simply use one of the many templates the app offers to best communicate your thoughts.

And while you’re at it, we’ll be happy knowing that we’ve helped create those little ripples of happiness.
