In the serenity of silence,
Sense the wisdom within!
Emoting in the stillness
To align with your being
A little more in every now.
Breathe and just be…

A day of silence
~ Silence ~
A day of Silence
Can be a pilgrimage in itself.
A day of Silence
Can help you listen
To the Soul play
In marvelous lute and drum.
Is not most talking
A crazed defense of a crumbling fort?
I thought we came here
To surrender in Silence,
To yield to Light and Happiness,
To Dance within
In celebration of Love’s Victory!
~ Hafiz ~
Be silent and sense the stillness
A million moves may be more
Are manifesting in this now
Hear the music unfold its rhthym
Be still and sense the moves
For stillness is full of movements
In the depth of Silence
We witness the dance within.

All in good faith!
The power that creates
The omnipresence
Is all knowing consciousness
That is there to take care
All of creation
Cannot be without a reason
Trust the purpose
Keep the faith
Faith is all there is
Without faith nothing is

Passion & Perseverance
Have you ever wondered
What is it on your path
That makes you persevere
Like no tommorow
To keep giving all of you…
Something that is on the fringes
Something tangible and yet intangible
It is that which sparks you up
Nothing feels unbearable
Its as if your mind body & soul
Is finally integrated in the sensing
Of the brilliance at work
Beyond yourself.
You will know that when you meet
The purpose of your being
At some point in your life perhaps
In the most unexpected of ways
You will find in yourself
An energy summoned from within
To reckon with to persevere on.
Such is the dance of abundance
Of creation at play
Making life resonate to its cosmic ways…

Art of Movement
Personally speaking, I have a deep interest in the art of movements, especially the ones that elucidate the flow… perhaps that is why I love dancing but on the other hand I have been equally captivated by the beauty of Tai chi and more so Qi Gong.
The healing energy of movement has often been a subject of deep passion, respect and research for me.
Likewise I am especially fond of the flowing Waltz as well. Since childhood, dancing comes naturally to me but have always found myself grappling to understand why martial art is even necessary.Until much later I started exploring the potency of energy in each of us…through a little introduction into Tai chi as well by conscious choice.
Allow me to present my reflections on this subject in a flow….
In a dance
There is an interconnect
Of emotion and movement
As to emote is to sense
The feeling in the flow…
In dance there is an awareness
Of moving in response
Without anticipation.
As in one step less,
The music moves on
And you are left to improvise
On how to match the steps in rhythm.
Yes, truly to dance is to enjoy the life in the moves.
In martial arts
There is flow too
But a flow that is ever in alertness,
In strategic moves and self defense
The speed and swiftness
In reaction and response.
Martial arts often feels like dance… t
But often the difference
Is between life and death.
Both are connected in the deepest sense and yet distinctive like chalk and cheese.
The intention to dance and to fight…is what differentiates.
We dance to let go, to enjoy this now and celebrate it.
In awareness is a flow that merges in harmony to synch in with now in artistry of the moves
The warrior is fighting for peace for survival against all odds
Not knowing what is the next move but yielding to the now to decipher the countermove and strike.
Here too there is often a display of extreme artistry of motion in accuracy of time.
To learn both, takes dedication and practice in patience.
But most of all is the need for relentless will & passion to persevere .
Yes, there is a dancer in a warrior
And a warrior in the dancer.
Choice rests within you.
Just remember, to dance is to live the moments and explore its most aesthetic potential in the flow… choose not to make dance a fight.
Stay joyful in peace.
To learn martial arts is to get into the arena and survive.
Attack or in self defense with least possible harm to get out of harms way to stay in peace.
Both may have their own relevance in purpose
To negate one is to look at only one half of the circle
Just as much as joy is part of life
Safekeeping the freedom to be
Is equally important in every now…
Do you want to dance in peace
Do you want to fight for peace.
Choice is yours to make
Peace or war!

WISDOM OF NATURE
Is the beguiling beauty of nature
Meant to have its own purpose
Afterall,everything is connected
Nothing is accidental.
However free in abandon we may feel
In this moment, we are bound
By the laws of nature
And its in these tangible connects
In being part of nature
We are deeply disturbed
By the imbalances of nature.
All of animaldom chooses harmonious
Coexistence with natures laws.
Unlike humans who try to outsmart nature and its ways.
Yet nature nourishes and nurtures itself in every now.
Such is the truth of life and living in nature.
High time to evolve with the lessons
nature shares.
Know that there is always a reason
To the way things are…
What we cannot see with our eyes
Nature of nature, emotes through our senses
Leaving the heart imprints,
Of wisdom in impressions for all of posterity…

Spectacular Trees
Recently I came across this picture
Of a truly unique tree called the Tibetan Cherry…
Mesmerized by its brilliant red hues
I was drawn to research a bit more…
The more I read about it
The more I was drawn to sharing this…
I dedicate these following couplets
To this fascinating vision of a tree.
One of the myriad expressions
Of nature’s majestic manifestation.
Alluring copper coloured tree
That creates awe and wonder.
Also known as the Paperbark Cherry
This is a tall tree, growing to around thirty feet in height.
Known to be a native Chinese tree with glossy trunk.
And bumpy bands of lines around it.
Resplendent with red berries, during autumn
Its foliage turns into golden yellow…
And by spring emerges a bloom
Of tiny white flower clusters.
Such a spectacular ornamental shrub
That I would love to meet someday!

On Trustfulness
Between belief and trust
There is a fine line
That makes all the difference
For to believe, is one thing
But to trust, is to let go.
In this trustfulness
Is where all the magic happens
And where the wonder comes alive
And beliefs finds meaning
In the ability to trust
Comes along the surrender
And the ability to accept the let go
In knowing there is always hope.
To trust, is to know there is
Always Something more
Than you or I
That will have our back
In complete trust
Life manifests and flourishes
Beyond the niggling doubts
And the unfounded insecurities
Trust is the power that creates possibilities
So important to trust and be trustworthy.
Trust and allow yourself to realize its potential.
To acknowledge trust, is a step ahead in faith.

Power of Perseverance
First comes passion
That emanates from loving
Whatever you do!
Then comes patience
To do what you need to do
No matter the time or effort!
And then comes perseverance
To keep going tirelessly
In focus & dedication…
The power of perseverance
Brings forth extraordinary results
Manifestating miracles in the making.

Take nothing for granted
Take nothing for granted
There is always a reason
For things to be, where they are
As they are, however they are…
Let your heart be ever grateful
For things that you have in this now.
And for that which passed you by…
All is well …in this now.
Stay thankful
And take nothing for granted!

Dance with all of you!
Two left feet or two right feet
Just learn to swing to the beat
And find the rhythm of your own heart.
And learn to dance and make a healthy start…
Just a little step and sway …
Bring the balance in your way.
Yes all we need is just a ‘Dance’ everyday!

Are you your own friend?
A true friend is there to support you if you fall.
Allow space for you to grow
Cheer you along the way
Take interest in your journey
Mean well for you
Stop you from self harm
Believe in you without a doubt
Yet dare to tell the truth to you.
Be with you so you are never alone.
Now think about it…
Are you your own best friend ?
Savvy
Says it all.
All is in the journey of self discovery
The simple act of nourishing
The soul temples we live in…
Bringing balance, harmony
And happiness in and around us.

Train of thoughts
We are filled with countless thoughts
Every waking moment of life
Even more so when we are alone
What we do with those thoughts
Is what matters.
How dense are those thoughts
How much vividity & how much lightness….
This is what decides
The course of life itself.
Its all interconnected
Where the train of thoughts lead us.
Choose to think well.

Garden of life
The heart feels
The mind thinks
And generates a seed of thought
But the heart is all encompassing
In the core of the heart
Is the garden of life.
The heart is all pervasive
The heart is willingness
It accepts the seeds of thoughts
It colours it with emotion
Sometimes in all its vividity
In the brightest of tints
Or at times in shadowing tones
Between the dark and light of life
The heart nurtures and nourishes
Thoughts seeds to life.
In positively enriching thoughts
It empowers life to evolve .
What truly matters is..
To plant a positive seed in your heart
Allow the mind to help the heart
Discard the unwanted,
Weed out the unnecessary
Trim the excess growth
Support the saplings of goodwill
Balancing between the heart & mind
Every moment of awareness
Can change the course of life!
