Bridge on the river of time 

On Awareness

Between what was understood and what we understand, and what we are yet to understand, is the bridge of awareness in time.


Our shifting perspectives are  simply signs of  changes as we continue to flow in the river of time.

In the middle

Right here

In the middle

Lives transformation.

Change starts

In the middle of it all

In the feeling

In the awareness

That something

Is happening.

So, true transformation too is not a one off act  in the edge of things or only where you are pushed to the extremes. True change for the better lives in the middle of consistent  moments of effort coupled with awareness.

It could start right now in the middle of it all.

Are you here in this now?

Living Meaningfully

The challenge…

Often relationships are exacting,

at times to the point of saturation.

The heart & mind battle

in contemplations of  resolutions.

The space…

For your own well being,

create a meaningful space around you.

The renewal…

Fill it with all that you want,

be it a hobby or passion.

Let it be something, that gives emotional comfort. 

And watch it awaken your inspiration.

Savvy

In reflection, here are three questions, for you.

In the battle of the heart & mind which one do you usually  tend to listen first?

When the outside world feels just a little too heavy, what gives you emotional comfort?

If you could carve an hour out of your week just for yourself, what passion would you fill it with?

The Gift Of Change

Here I share one of my own paintings and a personal  favorite fron my collection.
Savvy Raj

In the vortex of life

arrives the gift of changes;

the breaking of the bubbles,

Of long held beliefs,

Of false ego and resistance

Of fear that limits.

Like the wind that’s too fierce  to contain…

Cleaning the cobwebs of confusion.

And life transforms for the better.

Truth of Nature

Rain

It is the nature of rain
To wash away the dust
Until it’s clean and green.
Yet, too much rain
Floods and destroys.
Such is the truth of nature.


Each element of nature
Is balanced with the other.
The dry lands help sustain the wetlands…
One supports another
To sustain and thrive.
Such is the truth of nature.


Desert


Desert sand blows in the wind…
Winds carry the dust
Across the world,
Over lands and water,
Finding new settlements.


The truth of nature
Is the interconnections.
The kind that keeps us alive,
The kind we may not realize,
The kind we need to emulate
In this now and for our future,
To survive and thrive.

Just think…

If nature survives through quiet reciprocity, perhaps our own survival depends on learning to receive what is given, and giving what is needed.

Todays freeverses are inspirations that arrived  from contemplations with Anjana, my dear mother.

In & around

The more I explore

The mystique of  space

The more I am in touch

Of my ground of earth.

In mindfulness I root myself

So that my thoughts find stillness

The more I search afar

The closer I am home.

All is within

In and around

Reflections on Space

Thoughts on Space

Space is, what I make of it.


Space allows and restrains you all at the same time
In this and every now, space is filled with infinite possibilities.
Abundance and scarcity of potential is the truth in coexistence, shifting as you perceive space.
Space is a dynamic in the fluidity.


Space is what you make of it.


As what you sense in space, stays in space

So what happens in space stays in space.

Space is filled with wonder.
An expansive phenomena.


Feeling of space for you and I is deeply different.


Is there a divide at all between the physics and metaphysical space or is it actually interweaved & deeply interconnected.


Just a question of how open we are to understanding Space & the possibilities in its potential…
Its all in around and beyond there.

Levity of spirit

A little lightness of being

Takes you through the day

Dark moments turn lighter

Inject a dash of humor

When life feels too somber

Uplifting the moments…

So partake in a little levity of spirit

Its good for the soul .

On growth & grounding

A garden full of blooms

And books filled room

One where growth blooms

Another grounds us in the reading.

Life echoes

Life echoes

In the space between & betwixt

There are patterns of existence

Mapping itself in the shaping .

Sense the sounds of life.

Affirming itself  in the living 

Echoes of resonance

Circling in the experiences

Spiraling and swiveling

Bending time & spaces

The magic of interconnections

Creating order in the chaos

Threading in the inter weaving 

All in a stringed consciousness.

Doing good anyway

Do good

And when you do

Think not of acknowledgement

Nor recognition

Do good

From the goodness of your heart

And you will find joy in it.

Make it a practice everyday

To do at least one good  deed .

And soon it will become a habit

That happens naturally

And just know

In time…

You will do good anyway

Be this alive

We all are taught..

To make healthy choices.

It’s important to remember

It’s not just being hydrated

It’s not just eating healthy

Or exercising every day

Our true health needs much more

Beyond just the physical aspects

Tending to our emotions

Making conscious choices

To let go unnecessary

Be it overthinking worry or anger.

Practicing equanimity

Keeps us content & nourished

Integrating body mind &spirit

Decluttering our world

Balancing & simplifying life

And being present in the now

Making lifes moments come alive.

Each knows

Sometimes a little  pause or silence
Sometimes a little break from monotony
Can be a gamechanger
In the rut of routine
To unshackle the soul
And set the spirit free to imagine
And spark the creative fire within…
Wouldn’t you agree?
And I suppose how much of it all,  is an answer each knows… in the journey of becoming.

Your choices, your way

A painting by Savvy Raj

Every thing that interests you

Every word that you choose to hear & say

Every book you choose to read

Every thing you choose to do

Every place you choose to be

Is an open book of yourself

Your choices come from you

You have it all within

In your choices is a dimension

Of your own truths.

Embedded with in you

Awaiting emergence.

You manifest your own way.
