When I sit alone watching the dance of my breath ,
Witnessing the thoughts that arise like waves,.
Aware of my breath passing through my every cell,
Awakening to the transient nature of all,
Detatching gradually from the external me,
My inner eye witness the illuminated real I,
Connecting with the Cosmos in harmony,
Envelops the sense of infinity.
Where all is one ,
One is all.
The Blissful Eternal Truth.

A share from my mothers diary.
Life as a couple
Has its own challenges
Yet what matters is trust
In a loving relationship.
Trust that makes you feel safe
That makes you sense security
And value for being you.
To be heard, & loved as you are.
Often expectations from one partner
To toe the line and accept everything
Brings in uncomfortable silences
Or unwanted arguments and conflicts
Breaking a relationship gradually.
Perhaps it is about negligence
Or lack of consideration & care
Perhaps it’s about lack of empathy
Or even inequality that creates a gap
That widens in time and cracks
The strongest of partners.
Compromise or need
May keep them staying together
Just existing not living a life.
The show goes on…
Until it one day becomes unbearable.
And the inevitable truth tumbles.
These words above are deeply interlinked in the flow of thoughts that arose after I read a translation by my mother from a Tamil quote forwarded on Social media.
Interesting to note it is from a divorced husband after 10 years of realization.
‘Don’t show your pride before your wife.
She came to you just believing in you
Not your relatives.
My property
My earnings
My will
Then who is she?
What is the meaning of her life with you?
Can’t she have her dreams, her desires, to be fulfilled with you?
On reading this message
Something more rankled my mind
The question of expectations
To be fulfilled by the partner.
It’s never about needs
Being fulfilled by the other
But with one another.
In todays world
It’s about finding time
To be present in the now
With one another.
How many agree?

Nature is amazing
A single rose leaf helps grow another plant
Teaching lessons of survival no matter what
Where there is will, a way appears…

Amazing!
In this rut of routine…
That’s our so called lifestyle
In pursuit of our dreams,
We forget the purpose of our existence.
When the limbs and mind get tired
we start searching,
the meaning of our life.
It is never too late.
In just a little effort
To step out of our own ways
Many paths open up…
That leads us to walk on
Until we find our own way.
There is commitment in attachment
There is contentment in letting go
For then…
There is connectedness to all
In freedom of the flow.

On freedom
Think of freedom
As a dance of the winds
Blowing in liberation
Think of freedom
Embracing the glorious now
As the dance of birds flying free.
Think of freedom
As a dance of unshackled souls
Synching with nature
Think of freedom
As they find it in their unique voices.
Think of freedom
Unfolding itself in a tapestry of dreams
Timeless in oblivion
Think of freedom
Uncaged & unbound
Yet contained in its own flow.
For freedom too has its edges
Inspired pauses to sense
The necessity of nurturing
A structure in the chaos.
So think of freedom
Blending in to adapt & mould
This very freeflow to its purpose.
For freedom has its reason to be.
Art of creativity emanates from self belief in the creative capabilities within.
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.
To allow the self
Body mind & spirit
To think like a creator
Is to acknowledge
That within us rests
Possibilities in potential
Of creative capabilities.
Savvy
How intriguing are the intersections in interconnects…
In synergy of the energy
Of the harmony in the synchrony
Of life and the living
Of spaces between the steps
The spectre of the spheres
The realms of the cosmos
From one to another dimensions
And what is beyond the known
The illusions in the making.
Yet to understand more
Is to acknowledge the dance
Of patterns of possibilities
Shape shifting formations
Arranging and rearranging
In the infinite potential.
Watch this spectre of the spheres, the dance of the planets Jupiter and Mars around the sun…
There is a profound Croatian saying
by Tea Obrecht –
“Is your heart a sponge or a fist?”
What is your first thought on this?
The human heart is continually operating as a muscular pump, contracting on average 80 times per minute to propel 9 tons of blood through body tissues each day.
Heart is a resilient organ
It keeps on beating through life.
In a lifetime it acts like a sponge
Yet it squeezes itself in every beat
Cleansing to regenerate itself.
Heart is resilient as a fist
Yet open to receive & share love
Heart is intelligent in its intuition
Courageous and compassionate
Caring loving and humane
For after all humanity is heart centric.

A few musings…
Where is humanity in this now?
What does it take for humanity to thrive?
How does it continue to thrive?
Touched by the grace of gratitude
Appeased in the love for life
Moving beyond the self in inclusivity
In thoughts, words and deeds.
Humanity continues to thrive…
In moments of humility, kindness & compassion
In help, care, support & empathy
And yet it takes us all
Each and every one of us
To consistently sustain our humanity.
Savvy
We are on track
Nurturing humanity
In every moment
Through connections
Through art & creativity
To journey into the beyond
From nothing to something
To transcend beyond the mundane
Of notions and assumptions
To envision in empowering ways
Beyond rational thinking
To rediscover aesthetics of truth.
Savvy
Like every thing in the Universe
Has a reason to be…
Your purpose is intelligent
It is embedded in the flow
Such that it’s meant to be
To flow through you
Till you realize you are the flow
And you are enough for you!
Savvy
To the divine teacher
Called Life.
Who continues to teach
Until the lesson is learnt
Who tests us at the most unexpected moments.
In the many paths that lead us home
Who is the teacher of true meaning of freedom
From assumptions & limitations to true liberation
To develop our awareness & resilience.
To thrive on in this moment from now…
Namaste🙏
Savvy
Countless spheres of infinity
Rotating revolving in their preordained path.
The hows and whys still remaining a mystery
Curious minds continue to decipher
The pieces of mystery from eons unknown
Solved n unsolved puzzles of Nature.
From the stark to the subtle
From everything to nothing or
The other way round
The search is on…
In this journey on.
