Healing in your hands

Tap away the voice in your head.
Tap into your own healing touch.
Tap away the doubt and hesitation.
Tap into the ray of light.

Tap away the fear and confusion.
Tap into self-confidence and dare.
Tap away anger and disconnect.
Tap into your inner wisdom.

Tap away mindless distractions.
Tap into your inner silence.
Tap away the ego that bounds you
Tap into the dark spaces & let light in.

Yes, tapping away and tapping into, is a critical holistic skill for a more balanced life. While it’s not as easy as it sounds , for tapping away and into your healing energy can be both an emotional experience, yet the body regenerates itself in the journey of love & light.

The light of the source

Growing on an uncharted path,

All by yourself

Blossoming from inner faith

A strength of belief

Rises you up from within

That you project to the world

Sharing hope and happiness

So, like the delicate flowers

So full of perseverance

Arising  from bud to bloom

Dancing with the wind

Come rain or sun…

You share as you grow…

Beauty is in and around you

Radiating for all to see…

The light of the source.

I am sharing this hopegiving poem I just wrote.

We are all beings of light, moving towards our purpose in our own unique ways. With so much hope within each of us to know and understand along the way…

May we acknowledge and bloom in the light of the source we are created from.

On Movements

Move from instinct

Move through space

Meet it with grace

Turn inward

Hear the truths echo

In peaceful silence

Forgive in gratefulness

Sense your expression

Tĺhink calmly

Being more available

To your own self

Process your emotions

Clearing residues left in time .

To respond than react

In life & living.

The choice is yours to take

Crossing over
Bridges of time
Beginning to end
Ending to begin again
In body spirit & souls
Infinite forms of expressions
Between betwixt & beyond
Bonding new & old
In part & whole
Tuning into the sounds
Of harmony & rhythm
Inexplicable joys
Of moments in movements
As paths are splayed
Across time to tide over
In every moment
The choice is yours to take.

A ladder

A ladder is a link

A point of interconnections

A bridge between two sides

Between two opposites.

A ladder is not always to climb

A ladder leads you to connect

But the choice is yours

If you want to lead or be led by it.

Climb the ladder with confidence

Continue to bridge over challenges

Meet the changes with integrity

Dare the new horizons in hope.

Love

Someone asked

Can you hold on to love

I answered,

You can try holding on to love

It’s beautiful to be held in its sway

But doubt you can hold it

For its a feeling, an emotion

That you sense and embrace

You can bond with it

But not clasp, or latch on to

So get a grip on yourself

Think of love as freedom

To be all that you can be.

Love is free

Likewise to the air

You breathe it

But cannot hold it

It has to be set free

And in allowing it to flow

It sets you free

To sense its presence.

How is the weather today?

Peace of calm
Ease of soul
Are two things I sense
In these serene morning moments
Whether it’s the weather here
A gentle breeze & blissful cool
Adding to it all, I know not
But it’s a wonderful start…

How is the weather today ?

Dignity of being

Its not pride. It’s dignity,

That you need with you.

Much is the difference between .

In no uncertain moment

Lose your sense of dignity.

For dignity is divine

For it embodies your spirit & soul

Pride is just a human emotion. 

If ever you face a situation

Where anothers words & deeds 

Leave you broken

Remember  its just your pride & ego

That feels deflated in the moments.

It’s just a phase of life it will pass.

Your dignity stays with you

In the way you handle

With no loss of grace

Stay dignified, stay graceful.

Form & the Formless

Art by Savvy Raj

Is the form you see
Exactly the form I see
Perhaps they differ
In the way we choose to interpret.

Is form the mark of reality
Does being formless makes it unreal
Is form the contention
To know the real and unreal.

Forms are shaped by intentions
In dedication & deliberation.
For forms become fleeting memories
Perishing in the sands of time.

While the formless evolves in the heart
Holding up to unfathomable faith
They may live on in the silent knowing
Of unspoken trust in the being.

Discernment of the forms
In the inner recesses of the heart and the mind
Waltzes the consciousness of the being
In States of knowing ,of the truth of light

A light of wisdom
That takes many forms
Million times over
To show the path of truth.

The path is lit
As the steps are taken
The forms manifest in the interactions
Of vibrations in resonance.

Between these Illuminating illusions
Of the form and formless
What is real and unreal
All are just reflections in the dimensions.

In the beam of even one moment of truth
Is the convergence of envisioning
Forms and formless become one
Conveying the message safely home.

Strung ?

A stringed existence ?

While poetically speaking, or at theoretical physics, all of life is interconnected

Have you felt like you are strained, exhausted to the point of  emptiness?

Have you reached a point of burnout with visible signs of overwhelm?

Have you sensed the strong pull from various directions?

Some from strings you have given yourself a connection to.

Some of which, you are innately  connected since you were born.

Do you feel the pressure and need to resist some strings

And have you noticed how you are managing it all? 

Have you been able to live your life at all or  just simply existing  or day to another?

Time for some thought in this direction…

Sharing a thoughtworthy quote  from my readings this morning.

“We have a tendency to put ourselves last. We concentrate on everything else; work, friends, family, home issues, but we ignore the deeper stuff until it becomes so compressed that it can explode.”
Cecelia Ahem

I ❤️ it  for it is a great reminder  for all of us.

Self care needs to be considered as a priority practice rather than just a once in a while thing you do.

If we truly care to check in,  we can catch the many signs &  signals through which our body is already  communicating to us.. And how we are dealing with it all.

While being connected is great, we all need some space for reflection. A space to grow from awe and wonder.

A space for stillness in spite of the movements.

Some  moments to gather ourselves from where we are to reset ourselves.

The Mountain Beckons…

Across this desert of life
There is a mountain that beckons you.
That emits calm.
It invites you into its fold
Although the path is treacherous and tricky
You will lead yourself to it 
For in its wake,  the light of soul blooms
Your spirit awakens
And your body regenerates.
As you reach its pinnacle
You look onwards and upwards
You see the light of a thousand stars
Shining on you, their cosmic lights

There is nothingness
And yet everything-ness.
A feeling of calm and composure
Envelopes you in its presence
That soothes your soul.
The air filled with an ambient  pure fragrance
Of the mystical flowers  as you sense it in resonance.
Healing you
And empowering you,

With the strength of stability in its sureness.

Mind

Today am happy to share an introspective piece of poetry by my mother Anjana.

Mind
The strange , invisible me
Playing me like a puppet
In its hands.

All of a sudden
When in a group of happy hearts
The neurons in my grey cells suddenly switch
some remote thoughts
Buried deep in my memory folds .
And lo,
amidst the laughter and gaiety
I shrink to my own self,
Away from this Now n Joy.

Amidst a mourning group,
Or sad events,
It strings the tune of
Blessed moments
Making me smile within myself.

How powerful are
The seeds of thoughts
Arising from the depth of mind
Controlling my
moods, words and actions.

It makes me dance to its tunes.
I become a slave to its
Whims and fancies
Losing control of my own self
And repenting later.

All happens in spite of
learning about
awareness and detachment.
When I will learn to tame
The wild horse,
And become the master from slave.?

Reminiscences

A street of yesterday
comes to mind
echoes of children’s laughter
Sipping on a juicy cola bar right out of school.

A fruit seller with ripe berries
outside the school
Children thronging around
buying berries from pocket money.
How inexpensive was the joys of then!
On the other end of the street
was their ever popular mango seller,
selling spicy salted raw mango slices,
all mouth watering delight of then.
And yes, the memories of the temple lane right across
lined with tiny flowers shops
Scents of fresh fragrance of flowers wafting in …
Reminiscences of life, so non-fussy & simple.

Fragile frames

I sense hope every time I see a fragile flower. Mistake not, the flower as fragile for in its blooming from a bud it has resilience  writ large in every petal .Projecting hope majestically it withstands  the day come rain or sun 

Every flower is a powerful yet graceful testament of hope & strength springing fresh from the earth.

Speaking of Power…

Power is often mistaken to be loud and aggressive,  but often it is the quiet, the silent rebellion that has the most effect. 

Mistake not the fragile as weak

For often, there is great strength

In those fragile frames.

Proving time and time again

It is not the weight you carry

But in how you carry & project it.

What do you think ?
