It is always a learning in progress for learning is never ending and is a continuous path in life and living.
Yet it is beautiful to pause & be grateful for the understanding that comes our way.
In the trials & tribulations of being a student & a teacher, life abounds in deep gratitude.

Add a little love
To whatever you do
Love is the secret ingredient
And love makes all the difference
Love can be expansive
And yet inclusive in nature.
For sense is the essence of love
Nature of love is truly giving
That I wonder at times
Is there such a thing
As too much love?

Exactly eight years ago!
With love from Athens Greece … 🙂 At the World Dance Research Congress Greece UNESCO as a representative member from India 🙂
An example of Unity in Diversity…. Approximately 400 conferees from 40 countries of the 5 continents.!
Today in India, so glad to write this, the dance community that represents India internationally has grown from strength to strength … yet ‘Spot me’ if you can … I was the only woman representative from India at that time.
An amalgamation of such an association and the resulting experiences leaves one enriched for a life time. The practice resulting thereof in pursuit of excellence becomes important. In the awareness of the possibilities in dance applications on the human psyche and form, the responsibility of making a positive difference in your purpose is strengthened.
Power to more such immersive and experiential collaborations in the art of dance movements across the world. 🙏

A child can teach us to love life
A child can remind us to be present in this now.
Nurturing a child is a learning
In resilience and responsibility.
Of our strengths & vulnerability.
Children are our teachers of tommorow.

I am because you are & we are because they are …
Let us all care to value the strength of the interconnects in the interdependence.

Came across a thought provoking quote by Henry George…’Man is the only animal whose desires increase as they are fed.’
Simply shows the need for a conscious awareness of contentment.
On contentment…
When you consciously plant the seed of Contentment in your heart …You realize how much you already have.

Make your purpose
Resonate magnanimity
Make it make a difference
To the world at large
May every cell in you
Sense its vibrations
Let the purpose speak
From the heart in deeds

Hands can create nurture
Construct and destruct
Such is the power of Hands
And the choice is our hands
Hands that care to nurture life
Is a blessing for nature. 🙌

THE FALLEN FLOWERS 🌺
Every morning I saw an elderly gentlemen 👴 picking up flowers 🌸💐 fallen under the tree 🌳and neatly keep in a basket 🧺, meant for temple 🛕 visits. His activity was making me curious
One fine morning 🌄 I saw him again, and decided to quench my curiosity.
I asked him, Uncle, I always see you picking up these freshly fallen flowers 🌸🌺 from the ground. What do you do with them?
I use it to worship deities and gods in my house 🏠, he replied calmly.
Now this was new. Haven’t heard anything like this before. So, I asked him again, “Why will you put fallen flowers 🌸🌹, when there are plenty on the plant itself?”.
I am helping the flowers 🌸🌻 fulfil their purpose, to be with the God in their last days. They also have life, they also want to be with God like you and me in our last days, isn’t it, he asked me. I just nodded and he continued.
People pluck the buds 🌷 which have not even bloomed, and some only pluck the one’s which has just bloomed, not even letting them release their fragrance. Everyone takes what’s beautiful and leaves the plant stripped off its beauty. See, how these plants look like, stripped and deserted.
He continued, every flower 💐 has a purpose, to be with the God. While everyone takes away what’s there on the plant, I choose to pick them up. It’s not their fault that they fell down. They also deserve to be with God.
You also try it, you will find peace and happiness in doing it. I find it, that’s why I did it. I am too old support anyone, but I can help these flowers 🌻🌻 meet their destiny.
I could just nod and smile 😊
With this new inspiration and thought, I decided that let me also try picking up fallen flowers 💐 for worshipping.
I crossed a hibiscus 🌺 tree and saw few flowers fallen under the tree. As I bent down to pick up, I heard a voice
“You don’t put fallen flowers to God”, it was my Mom speaking to in my head, and then I stopped for a second.
“God is only looking for your emotion & devotion towards him, so go ahead and pick up”, it was again my Mom speaking to me in my head
After much deliberation and looking at both sides, I picked the flowers 🌸🌻 and put it in my palms. I could feel goose bumps and my heart 💖 started racing. It was a very different kind of love I was feeling inside my body for these flowers 🌹🌸.
I got them home 🏡, washed them and placed them where they deserved, at the feet of God.
This entire experience was overwhelming. I felt good and nice about myself. I felt as if I have saved someone’s life or helped someone come out of misery. I had never felt this level of contentment before with flowers atleast. And I feel, I will continue to do this. Pick up who has fallen down.
In life, we always want to be around nice and beautiful people. We want to see ourselves with people who belong to our stature, and look down on people below our status
But, the real satisfaction comes when we help someone and make their life better. Be it a human, animal, bird or any other form of life.
So, why not flowers 🌸💐
THE FALLEN FLOWERS 🌸
Have a Great Day and God Bless Us All👌👍😊🙏👍
What if ?
Flowers were green and leaves blue
All that you believe, flipped the script
Reality turns an illusion
And illusions a reality
Random thoughts turn specific
And what you focus on gets out of control.
Truth is…
Life is so much more than what you see
So different from your expectations
So many possibilities in this now
Trust life to unravel the pathway.
Hold on to hope in your heart.
And keep the wonder in you alive…

Heart of the tree
A vision that made me happy today
Cheer fills the air
Sun kissed leaves shining bright
The ground feels delightfully cool
Under the giant canopy
Fresh breeze and heady fragrance wafting through
Life is truly fine and well
Under this giant tree….

This week finds me traveling yet again to another city.
I realize the sights and smells that greet me as I set alight also set the expectations.
Yet one thing has never changed in all my travels
My inate ability to wake up at dawn no matter when I sleep.
In the hotel room I am suddenly abound by precious time. I also enjoy the practice of having warm water with a just slight dip of a teabag for a second so its more flavored water than tea.
I sense many moments of great connectedness in this unadulterated time of sipping tea. I love it best propped in bed with my feet all tucked in the warm sheets The warm concoction ever so gently bringing in the old familiar fuzzy feeling of being at ease, and accommodating my palate and me to the sensations of a new place. Over many such moments of serendipitousness & the familiar deju vus that wash over me, I have been privy to my musings in verses that flow effortlessly.
Like I am doing in this now…
Moments matter and your movements in the moments matter a great deal.
Hold this moment that is, in rapture and awe
It’s precious for it will slip away
Never to meet again in posterity.
But in creating a ripple effect of positivity through the movements in the moment
What is the future can manifest from this now
Care to alter your life for the better.
Alter your moves…
So what’s your kind of move in this now?
