Children are creative innately and their childish curiosity often opens up the spaces yet unexplained and quite unexpectedly so.
Speaking of a child’s imagination and an adult’s ability to retain a childlike mindset, it boosts the creative thinking with fresh and unbiased perspectives. Much is in the way we perceive the arising patterns.
Complex problems are also known to be solved with this kind of approach. In the very ability to allow the self to let go, one’s vision broadens.
Old school methods of education often restricted the divergent expansion of creativity so as to structure its flow to converge in rigidity. But applying this agile & flexible approach can be an enriching experience for the mind and body.
In allowing ourselves spaces for our thoughts to self pattern in free play, acknowledging open-ended questions, of what if, how, why so and dare to dream fearlessly, andwonder, we might discover a pattern that connects the unfamiliar or yet seemingly distant dots.
A child like enthusiasm
Awe and wonder
Curiosity coupled with imagination
That knows no bounds
Could perhaps be a great creative approach
To solve complex problems.
For ultimately it is a matter of connecting the dots.
Every day early morning a little girl would come to the temple and stand before the idol, close her eyes and with folded hands, murmur something for a couple of minutes. Then open her eyes, bow down, smile and go out running.This was a daily affair. The temple Poojari was observing her and was curious about what she was doing. He thought, she is too small to know the deeper meanings of religion, she would hardly know any prayers. But then what was she doing every morning in the temple? Fifteen days passed and Poojari now couldn’t resist but to find out more about her behaviour. One morning, the Poojari reached there before the girl and was waiting for her to complete her ritual. He placed his hand on her head and said, “My child, I have seen since the last fifteen days that you come here regularly. What do you do?” “I pray,” She said spontaneously. “Do you know any prayers?” asked the Poojari with some suspicion in his voice. “…No” Replied the girl. “Then what are you doing closing your eyes, every day?” he smiled. Very innocently the girl said:“I do not know any prayer, but I know “a,b,c,d….up to z.” ‘I recite it five times’ and tell God that, “I don’t know your prayer, but it cannot be outside of these alphabets.” Please arrange the alphabets as you wish and that is my prayer.” And she ran, jumping on her way out. The Poojari stood there dumbstruck, staring at her for a long time as she disappeared running in the wilderness.
This is THE UNCONDITIONAL belief in God that we pray.
They can trust you They can take the step They can be creative They can try options They can make mistakes They can get support They can improvise They can win!
A great team has a great leader who has their back!
Uneasy lies the head that wears the Crown Tentacles of power Seeping from within, Surging of the webbed grasp The unnerving truth of rigidity The vicelike grip of conformity The stronghold of absolute authority The merciless and binding royalty. Expectations of undivided loyalty. The Crown bears the burden Often silently withholding expressions.
The choice rests with the wearer of the crown 👑
Yet …
When passion drives the power with a larger purpose beyond self in perseverance and patience
So can we truly master our thoughts?
Often considered daunting in itself
For we are swayed by a zillion thoughts,
In every moment we are alive.
But if we begin to understand
That mastering is about integrations
It’s a connection of our senses.
In managing our mind moods & actions.
The simple act of choosing
One thought over the other
Is a choice we have with us.
We are our own masters
We are enslaved by own selves.
Our life is created in these choices
We choose to think and make.
Mastering thoughts is the challenge…
That decides how we choose to feel
Yet if we only let ourselves tap
Into our intuitive intelligence
We will find our inner guide
That is always on our side.
