With a rich imprint of lessons
The past is behind you
Full of hope & promise
The future is yet to reveal itself
The now is the present
It shows up in myriad ways.
Can we learn from the past
And apply it to this moment
Can we shape this now
And make it matter
Can we breathe in kindness
And make a difference
For this now and forever.
All we need is a willingness
To accept a shift in perspectives.

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

A new day
A new role
A new path
Paving way
For the start of something new
Inhaling to align in the new
Exhaling to let go the spurious
All in hope, trust, faith
And belief in the way
Of true abundance.

Just dance.
And feel this alive!

Just having the courage to express ourselves, we open ourselves to a vulnerable and creative self that is the light in us shining through….:)

State of times we live in
We are connected to people across the world
But have no time to see what is going on above the screen
Our vision is narrowed although we boast of thousands of connections
Our immediate family and friends are all online
Our children are too busy with their smartphones…
Yes there is a screen in front of us , and we are getting oblivious
To what’s beyond it!
Life is truly stranger every day to us.
And we are becoming strangers to life!

Art is meant to align us.
The true purpose of an artform is found in the aligning with the universal consciousness .

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
To listen is to understand
Is a power of hearing well
The said and the unsaid
To listen is to remain quiet
To allow oneself to hear
The voice of others than self
To listen is to develop patience
To be able to acknowledge
And understand the said
To listen is an art to cultivate
Not easy always to curb speech
Listening leads to self control
To listen is not wait to speak
But to hear & understand
Care to listen or speak more?
A mark of good leadership
Good listening is a great asset
Take time to listen more…
Savvy
To dance is to know
The feeling of being alive
To this now in your life
Being present with all of you
Listening and moving
To your own beating heart
For the music and rhythm
Is yours to own and sense.
To dance is to let go
Of the spurious and irrelevant
And reclaim the energy
That is yours to own.
And in that owning
You create moments
Worth living for…
Hope you dance!
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.
