Life finds a way…

Life is strange
Strange is life
Just like that
Life turns around
Difficult becomes easy
Miseries come to an end
Problems find a solution
Trust in a deliverance
Hope against hope
Keep the faith
Life finds a way

Memorable moments

There are always special moments in every one’s life
Making life meaningful and memorable
Often it’s pure serendipity…
When your memory jogs you to remember such a moment.


What makes the memory strong?
What you are associating it with,
That is what makes the memory stronger.

Next time pay attention to whatever you want to remember.
What emotions and feelings can you associate with it?
As your visualisation gets stronger
Your memory gets better and will  fade lesser in time.

Now remember to visualise with vibrance.
Choose as you please,
Scents & fragrances of places
Nature & friendships
Colours of Emotions
In all its vividity &feelings.

Soon you will build on all the happy times.
Keep adding your treasure chest of memorable moments.

Someday you will be thankful for it.

What does Creativity require?

Creating anything
Requires trustfulness
Needs effort and focus
And ability to adapt
A willingness to attempt
Acceptance of errors
And perseverance to go on
To the shifting perspectives
In creative associations
Adding curiousity of a child
Of awe, wonder & joy.

Bloom in Resilience

Moving beyond….bloom again

Did something happen? 
Did you get hurt?
Are you in pain?
Do you keep hurting
Time and time again
Still thinking of it
Is it the circumstances
That repeat itself?
Or is it you who has to change?

Are you ready?
To work on your own self?

Cultivate your inner strength
Release let go pain
Let go  slights & insults
Step by step
Bit by bit
Acknowledge the hurt
But overcome it
In practice learn to flow over it
And once you do
You move over it
Care to ask yourself
What is the hurt all about?
Where is it hurting the most?
Whatever your answer
Release it consciously
Let it go…
For the now is meant to change
Such is the truth of nature.

Its your life
You are responsible
To create a garden of your life
Make sure you strengthen
The walls with gratitude for life
Value the life in every now
Bloom some more
Be the best you can be!

What is Spiritual Growth to me?

Someone asked me what spiritual growth means to me …

Here is what I spoke about in a nutshell

Harmony in mind body & spirit Integration in Self awareness
Developing greater understanding & Empathy
Humility & Kindness
Humanity & Compassion.


Living in the lightness of being
Acknowledging Grace in Gratitude
Sensing true freedom to be…for the self and others.
To flow with life in serenity. Sensing the joy in the ordinary.

It’s about acknowledging & sensing the space in around me

It’s about giving in the receiving and receiving in the giving

Witnessing the evolving patterns and freeing the self from limitations of the mind.

Evolving in the learnings, valuing the connection built in time.
A mindful & heartful practice in conscious awareness.
Letting go of unnecessary things
Understanding the value
Of the gift of life
Making life meaningful.
Living life lovingly!

And in knowing it’s so much more….

Please feel free to add what spiritual growth means to you?

The Dancer

Sharing one of my favorites

THE DANCER

An Excerpt From The Wanderer by Khalil Gibran,


Once there came to the court of the Prince of Birkasha a dancer and her musicians. And she was admitted to the court. And she danced to the music of the flute, the lute, and the zither.
She danced the dance of flames and fire, and the dance of swords and spears; she danced the dance of stars and the dance of space, and then she danced the dance of flowers in the wind.

When she had finished, she approached the prince and bowed her body before him. The price bade her to come nearer, and said unto her, “Beautiful woman, daughter of grace and delight, whence comes your art? And how is it that you command all the elements in your rhythms and your rhymes?”

And the dancer came near and bowed her body again and said, “Gracious majesty, I know not the answer to your questionings. Only this I know: The philosopher soul dwells within his head, the poets soul dwells within his heart, the singers soul dwells about his throat, but the soul of the dancer abides in all her body.

On Spirituality

You can’t talk Spirituality
You got to live it.
Often when life takes you far
Far away from it…


You got to know
The divine that you seek
Is with you in every moment
Your actions thoughts and words
Decides the distance between
You and your spiritual self.

On Equanimity

The wisdom born of balance…

Being able to see the true essence

Of living life in the middlepath

Knowing the power of being gentle

Just as much as of toughness

In every circumstance.


Discerning when to be what

And with whom is the key


To successful life management.

Developing the discipline

In mind body & spirit

Calls for equanimity of not tilting

To the extremes of behavior

In thoughts words deeds.

What is your take on equanimity?

We will survive

What if storms come when in the middle of the ocean.
What if volcanos erupt ,where the shelter is. .
What if tsunami sweeps in while relaxing at the beach.
What if earth quake shakes the ground underneath.

Human spirit is so strong
It will overcome any obstacle that comes in its way.
Strong is the will power and grit.
Our race has seen all these and much more in the times bygone.
Resilience and humanity overpowers all mishaps .
We rise from the ashes to build from the scratch.
We can make edges bend to make us the path to proceed.
Never fall down.
Never loose hope.
Though life is a struggle
We are meant to survive.
Our faith and inner light are the anchors.
Hope & effort are the oars that steer us forward.
Keep moving.
Keep winning.
For we are meant to survive.

Think Lucky

Think yourself lucky
Generate luck by will
Intend luck in your life
Sense the dance of abundance
Acknowledge the Good in life
Consider yourself lucky
Master the art of thinking lucky.

A matter of approach

Creativity: A matter of approach.

What makes a job well done ?
What makes excellence a standard?
What makes one stand out a cut above the rest ?
What is aesthetics after all?
What differentiates the good better and the best?


All is a matter of approach in every field of life. A shift in the perspectives brings home the amazing solutions. An approach that is creatively expansive than confounding, opens a box of possibilities .

We are all equipped to reach out into our own creative potential by just empowering ourselves with techniques of approaching a situation at hand.


Every one of us is endowed with the potential to develop our artistic abilities and approach with a creative eye.

It’s a matter of putting the principles into practise and taking that giant leap of faith.

What is your attitude & approach to life today?

What are you going to create for yourself in this now?

The Creative You

Every life is unique.

And creative in its own way.

With you is the key of creativity

You simply have to believe in you

And explore this gift of life

That is already with you.

Creativity is in you

In the way you chose to be

In the way of you seeing

In the way you interpret life

https://www.facebook.com/reel/1392721954992696?sfnsn=wiwspwa&mibextid=6AJuK9

Watch

In the way you express

Infinite creative possibilities

Are awaiting expression

Awaken your potential today

Create from your uniqueness…

Breathing Space

After every exhilarating day

Comes moments of confusion

Of thoughts rushing for attention

In not knowing which to focus

In the business of thoughts

In trying to make sense of it all

Even the most sorted of minds

Can find it all challenging

In such moments of a tango

Of multiple thoughts in the making

Take a moment to breath deeper

Attend to the breath for a while

As you sail on towards the breath

Trust thoughts to find a way

In the space between themselves

And it all begins to makes sense…

Written for a beautiful blessed soul who was sensing chaos after an extraordinarily happy but hectic day…

I hope she finds her mojo back✨⭐✨

On Meditation

Meditation is simply

A dedication of time

For your own self care.

It’s a way to tune inwards

In witness mode.

In the stillness as the mind quietens

Begins the path of your own

In self – expansion beyond self- limitations

Meditation is a choice you make

Unfolding the limitless potential you hold within.
