Success follows the action
In intention to completion
In engagement to fulfillment
In planning to execution
In confusion to clarity
Simply dreaming is not enough
Simply thinking is not enough
Simply wanting is not enough
Success follows the passion
Success follows perseverance
Success follows patience
Yet success doesn’t just come.
You go to it
And make it happen.
Success demands effort from you
And consistently so!
Soon you will find yourself
Staring at success right in the eyes

Life lessons
( Translated by my mother from tamil forward)
The 9 laws of Karma
Let there be peace and happiness everywhere. Let all prosper and live a fulfilling life.
Whoever thinks being slow is a weakness
Has not understood its power
In being able to slow down
The propensity to think carefully
To pay attention to detail
To be mindful & cautious
To work with precision
Steadiness and thoroughness
Increases manifold.
In slowing down, nature teaches
Great lessons in letting go
Like time cannot be contained
Moments are meant to flow
It’s own course
Yet the strength of the slow
Is in the ability to live the now
Recognizing the value of life.
There is an art of the slow
Where the senses activate
And creativity enhances
In thinking and reflecting
In careful consideration
Slow is challenging for some
Yet slow can be earnest practice of mindfulness
Slow begets a response than reaction
Slow can be about building up gradually
And exploring the possibilities
Of the potential in this now.
Slow can be a deliberation
In patience & perseverance
With an effortless grace
Such is the art of the slow.
Savvy
Life is full of challenges
Along the way
For each and every being
In their own unique ways…
Am reminded of the saying…
It’s never about the weight
But the way you carry it.
Lightness of being
Is knowing how to steer
Through the hurdles
In effortless grace.
Beautiful to witness
The ways of nature
Sometimes maneuvering
At times adjusting.
But mostly thriving.
No matter the odds.

Profound truth of Prayer
A prayer is a resonance to the self.
Often misunderstood are the recitations and stories of God
As offerings in prayers.
Oft repeated to children in their growing years
Or often in communion of like minded souls.
It’s never about reaching out to distant God
But about connection with the God within
Invoking the divinity in you.
Praising the lord
Hymns or chants
Slokas or mantras
Is about healing & transformation of the self
In consistent practice
It generates positivism
Purifying the energy
And creating goodwill
In thoughts and deeds.
Like exercises for the body
They exercise the mind
To think & evolve for the better.
Savvy
If time were a river
You will understand
There is a flow to things
Across the manifestations
Everything in time
Has a reason & season to be.
Wonder and amazement too has its own plan
To create curiousity to explore more
To understand there is always more
What’s is to hold on to
Or to give away
Will reveal itself in time
For…
To discard is at times let go in trust and hope
To make space for better to manifest in time.
Savvy
Beautiful thoughts
From an empathic mind.
That cares from the heart
Truly what use is giving
Without a need for the giving
As giving is a gift only
In the receiving
Else it’s just giving away
Without any takers
All is wasted.
So perhaps its alright to ask
Before you plan to give.
Savvy
Is there a space you love to be
Where you feel most you ?
Where there is respite from chaos
Where there is peace for the sensing
What is that place for you ?
Your home or somewhere far away?
While I love people and enjoy my time with them
And infact get charged by some amazing conversations
I would also love to be by myself
By nature preferably walking
In the calm of a forest trail
Or perhaps on a winding road uphill,
Would love to have a flowing river by my side
and most of all be surrounded by trees
Or even up the mountains
Watching the world from a vantage view.
And then comes the sandy beaches and sea
There are of course those moments to cherish
With the whistling dunes
In all I would love free spaces
where I could sense the earths energy undisturbed.
And be synched in for a while.
May be hugging a tree or an animal
Or walking by a beautiful stream
Or under a canopy of stars at night.
These are spaces for me
To connect deeply within.
How about you?

‘Let my soul smile through my heart and my heart smile through my eyes, that I may scatter rich smiles in sad hearts.’
Paramahansa Yogananda
Have you smiled today?
When you smile from the heart
You begin to let go the spurious
You rise above apprehensions
And self created notions.
Smile from the heart ❤️
Savvy
Breathe deep in trust
Breathe well in faith
Breathe in peace
Let go uncertainty
Breathe in connectedness
Own your every breath
It’s yours to inhale & exhale.
Sense your breathe in balance
Reach out with confidence
Stay grounded in rootedness
In this now, witness
The present moment
For it makes all the difference
Just breathe…

Our humanity is within us awaiting expression.
Every one of us has the choice to be humane.
“Sometimes we’re fractured by the choices we make; sometimes we’re shattered by things we would never have chosen. But our brokenness is also the source of our common humanity, the basis for our shared search for comfort, meaning, and healing. Our shared vulnerability and imperfection nurtures and sustains our capacity for compassion.”
— Bryan Stevenson
There is something touchingly tender in every instance of humanity in action be it in thoughts words or deeds.
Our humanity makes us touch the true purpose of our being alive .
Wouldn’t you think so?
