Life strings

Who runs your life
Is your life flowing the way you intend
Or is there a possibility
That the strings of your life
Is in anothers hand?

Question your self
In whose hands are your life strings?

As a child you may have your parents
That hold the strings for your self protection

As a teenager you may have questions on the strings itself

And then as a young adult many other strings may have come into existence
Some for a season, a reason or a lifetime
Then growing some more
These strings may have felt like a pull and push from all directions

Getting ahead a few more years
Some you may sense getting weaker
And some may have got stronger

Growing older and perhaps wiser
Of things as they were
And as they are…


A life lived
To fulfil a purpose
Is it yours at all
Or is it another’s dream
After all
In your head and heart
You may have the truth
Of a life lived
A stringed existence.

From innocence
To rebellion
From learning
To curiousity
From understanding
To accepting
And in the sharings.
And knowingly or unknowingly
In awareness or without
We come alive and die
Infinite tines
In the many moments
In our lives…

It’s a stringed existence after all.

A photo inspired poetry
9 :28 4rth of July India

While I wrote this piece yesterday seeing the photo inspiration , I am also aware that I had this thought on the truth of freedom many times.

What do you think on freedom within a stringed existence?

Are you in the drivers seat of your life

And if so what are the things you have compromised or have contended with to drive on…

Truth is in the meaning and purpose of the stringed connection.

Tune in

As you dance
Tapping your toes
To your own heartbeats
Life senses your rhythm
And waltzes along with you,

The joy of life
Manifests itself
Tuning into the melody of the harmony.
Creating music that beats in the synchrony.

Faith Love Truth

Master your mind they say

Before it masters you

Acknowledge the truths of life

For mind is full of thoughts

Creating countless thoughts

Know the value of mindfulness

Being mindful is about self awareness

To master the mind

Master your thoughts

Become aware of this now.

Whatever is this moment

Sense it and you breathe in it

Feel it and be alive in it

For the truth is in every moment

What you decide to do in this now

Has power to change and rearrange

Your state of being.

Life is precious

Have faith and trust

Stay hopeful in every breath.

For the truth is you can.

After all the mind works

On what you feed it.

The Parodox of Beauty 2

Beauty is what beauty feels

Continuing in a series on Life and Living … The subject of Beauty brings to mind its paradox As mentioned in my last article I would like to reflect on this with my readers and fellow writers and work in collaboration towards a certain consensus if attainable .

Here is a beautiful reflection of the thoughts of this reader who starts by visualizing in the vebalisation of the beauty in the elemental awareness of nature and culminates her standpoint in the beauty of nurture…

Of a mother and child and the beauty in a loving heart.

Thank you to my dear mother Anjana for your exemplary examples. Rest assured I certainly will be reading these lines often.

“Anything that pleases the eye is beautiful..How much exquisite or breath-taking the physical beauty may be… it’s just skin deep. Beyond that all is same.

A wise soul has this awareness. Though the elements may be the same, their arrangement makes the difference. But there is beauty in the wilderness too.

The dancing flames of fire, the eruptive flowing and glowing lava of the volcono, the blowing sand making patterns on the sands of deserts, the mystery that lies in the underground caves, in the depths of the oceans, in the vast space that surround us , there is beauty in everything. A thing of beauty is a joy for ever.

Above all beauty has a connection with love in the heart. Even the so assumed ugliest child looks beautiful to it’s mother. After all beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Can anything be more beautiful than a compassionate and kind heart that sees goodness in all.”

The lines above have an sensitive emotive and reflective quality which is engagingly beautiful to me.

Cont’d…

On Thoughts Beliefs & Awareness

Thoughts and beliefs

On power of belief :

When you deeply believe
You are bound to manifest
In the deepest intentions
Such is the way of creation
And the power of belief

On memories & thoughts:

Your memories are your thoughts that arise
They are a vision a feelings of things that were…

But in the power of belief they begin to have power over you. Your emotions come into play.

On Awareness of thoughts

But in your depth of awareness you realise thoughts come and go, then you also realise that you are above your thoughts and therein you begin to sense your limitless self.

Pathways to light

Sabhar The way of patience in waiting

Shukar The way of thankfulness in gratitude

There is great wisdom in these two ways to live life lovingly.
Both are pathways in the ebb and flow of life.

To see from nothingness
Is to see possibilities ahead.
To keep hope alive in your heart. Cultivate faith in patience and trust.

To sense gratitude even when you have everything, Is to know that there is much more than what is visible. You are a tiny speck of the magnificent whole. And no life is less or more important. And that every life plays a significant part.

In awareness there is heartfelt thankfulness in contentment for everything you already have.

As you cultivate these habits every day becomes incrementally  better.
Or perhaps you begin to understand gradually, the power of managing change rests within you.
Stay patient
Trust yourself.
In thankfulness
See the light
You actually are.

Compassionate connections

The path of compassion knows not separateness

Flowing in love of life in lightness

In the sparks of surging intuition

To be tender & move with compassion

Beyond mankind to all living being.

In the depths of compassion is an understanding

Of another soul in recognition

And sensing the joy and sorrows in reflections.

So join in to experience in embrace of compassion

Beyond intellect and reason and other egoistic delusions

Join the circle of conscious compassion.

Unite with single minded purpose of communion.

Share without fear or favour

All that you divinely revere

As every journey is a reunion

Of the spirit to another in Godliness .

The energy from such an authentic action

Creates oneness and peace

In and around us.

And a sense of belonging

To this vast wide world

Comes in the knowing

Of our owing to this

world and the beings around us.

We are not alone ever …

Works like a prayer…

For life to have meaning.

A Great Leader Knows…

Great leaders know…
It’s about listening, observing identifying and then empowering & developing middle managers to be great leaders of tommorow.

It’s about rewarding people for the right reasons.
And understanding what gets people to work together.

And then creating and sustainable atmosphere for them to work well together.

It’s about finding time to understand the context of what is. And being able to not only envision the big picture but also project it with authenticity and powerfully so.

For in the many small moments of the day there appears many random tests for a leader.

Leadership is not about making everyone like each other. But about making them understand that it takes all of them to be a consistent and collaborative team players.

And most of all getting every one knowing why they are there and clarifying in simple words what the organization is trying to do.

There is a beautiful saying that goes…’ It’s not about having a team of stars
But about having a star team’

And great leaders create star teams…

Soul wisdom

Life is an expression of the soul…


The soul goes through life


Like a rough diamond that gets polished

The body & mind take a toll


Many times over in a lifetime.


To shine like a diamond does.


In the shaping & moulding


Through the experiences


Garnering wisdom in the living.

Spirited Sky.

Today I happened to glance up at the sky

I was taken by its beauty.

Brilliant hues of blue

Adding brightness to the world

Whiffs of white clouds floating around

Like cotton fluffs patterned as two beautiful swans

Swimming in pure blue sea.

I imagine then,

The Spirited sky sending forth a sign…

Around the horizon, a tinge of orange yellow sun

Spreading hope & possibilities.

Learnings in the listening


I listened  to my heart
Every day
As it shares from within
And I write them out as words
Sometimes as verses
At times it’s measured
In moderation.
Its a zen moment
For there is clarity
In just a few words shared.

Then there are times
They flow like a river
A torrent in a current
Patterning itself
In its own making
Words come through me
As if it needs to be spoken
Sharing the sensitivity
Of the moments at hand.


I listen simply with rapt attention.
For in the slightest flutter
In every movement in the moments
Or the depth of silence.
There is always something more.

What’s louder than words?

This world…
Needs no pity
That feels sorry
Nor sympathy
That feels pain.
For feeling sorry
Or sensing pain
Will not solve
The issues at hand.

What one life truly needs from another…
Is empathy
To understand and relate with one another.
And compassion
That cares to help heal.

Whenever wherever
the dialogue changes
From I feel sorry,
To I will help you
Because I care…
The world will be a better place.

For action speaks louder than words.

All at the right time.

There is a time and reason for every season
For if all the seasons manifested together
There would be calamity.

There is always a reason to things
To questions and answers

If every lifes purpose asserted itself in this now.
There would be no tommorow…
Life is meant to go on
To live and learn
To explore and discover
To hope and await
To look forward to…

So acknowledge the learnings that happen
In a lifetime…
All at the right time.
