Time evolves one and all, come what may.
Yesterday’s mountains have become paths today
Love of life will show the way
As you keep building bridges not walls I say.

A day of silence
~ Silence ~
A day of Silence
Can be a pilgrimage in itself.
A day of Silence
Can help you listen
To the Soul play
In marvelous lute and drum.
Is not most talking
A crazed defense of a crumbling fort?
I thought we came here
To surrender in Silence,
To yield to Light and Happiness,
To Dance within
In celebration of Love’s Victory!
~ Hafiz ~
Be silent and sense the stillness
A million moves may be more
Are manifesting in this now
Hear the music unfold its rhthym
Be still and sense the moves
For stillness is full of movements
In the depth of Silence
We witness the dance within.

Mystic of life
A dear friend shared this picture on social Media and it left me contemplating…
We are born to connect
In one way or other
For a purpose larger
Than our individual self
There is light that we have
That we ourselves may not know
The potential of, that manifests
To serve at the right time.
There is always a reason
For this now, so rise above despair
And look onward and upward
The way is forward in faith
To live and help heal some more.
No wonder its said ‘Hands that help
Is holier than lips that pray…’
We are carriers of hope
That pass on for posterity
Our life is intricately weaved
In every moment of our being
Through the echelons of time
For a reason, we may or never know
Such is the ‘Mystic of life’
In all its brilliant manifestations.

Ways of Nature
I came across a very unique post on Social media…that I want to share here today…
Someone collected these tree branches and called them Nature’s dance” ❤️
Artwork : Chris Kenny – Dancing twigs
If you actually want to see
You will see the Dance of Nature
In every leaf and flower
In every bud and bloom
In every twig and tree
In every turn and twist
Of nature’s creation
There is the grace of uniqueness
Of wisdom beyond compare
All knowing, all pervading
To this Omnipresence …I bow
In Gratitude to this Grace
Savvy
All in good faith!
The power that creates
The omnipresence
Is all knowing consciousness
That is there to take care
All of creation
Cannot be without a reason
Trust the purpose
Keep the faith
Faith is all there is
Without faith nothing is

Passion & Perseverance
Have you ever wondered
What is it on your path
That makes you persevere
Like no tommorow
To keep giving all of you…
Something that is on the fringes
Something tangible and yet intangible
It is that which sparks you up
Nothing feels unbearable
Its as if your mind body & soul
Is finally integrated in the sensing
Of the brilliance at work
Beyond yourself.
You will know that when you meet
The purpose of your being
At some point in your life perhaps
In the most unexpected of ways
You will find in yourself
An energy summoned from within
To reckon with to persevere on.
Such is the dance of abundance
Of creation at play
Making life resonate to its cosmic ways…

Truth is Power
The power is in the truth
Where truth is nothing dares
Such is the nature of truth
That whatever ways it is submerged
It always gets unearthed
And yet interestingly its often said…
The opposite of the great truth
Is also truth!
Such is the circle of life.

Tap Into The Inner Wisdom
Our guiding voice from within
Is always speaking to us
Signaling in a whisper or a sign
Conveying what is the’ Gut feel ‘
Our second brain is often ignored
But it operates nevertheless
Resonating or relegating
An advice to our being
If only we know to listen in
We draw from its bank of wisdom
And better manage our choices
In staying integrated in life & living.

Art of Movement
Personally speaking, I have a deep interest in the art of movements, especially the ones that elucidate the flow… perhaps that is why I love dancing but on the other hand I have been equally captivated by the beauty of Tai chi and more so Qi Gong.
The healing energy of movement has often been a subject of deep passion, respect and research for me.
Likewise I am especially fond of the flowing Waltz as well. Since childhood, dancing comes naturally to me but have always found myself grappling to understand why martial art is even necessary.Until much later I started exploring the potency of energy in each of us…through a little introduction into Tai chi as well by conscious choice.
Allow me to present my reflections on this subject in a flow….
In a dance
There is an interconnect
Of emotion and movement
As to emote is to sense
The feeling in the flow…
In dance there is an awareness
Of moving in response
Without anticipation.
As in one step less,
The music moves on
And you are left to improvise
On how to match the steps in rhythm.
Yes, truly to dance is to enjoy the life in the moves.
In martial arts
There is flow too
But a flow that is ever in alertness,
In strategic moves and self defense
The speed and swiftness
In reaction and response.
Martial arts often feels like dance… t
But often the difference
Is between life and death.
Both are connected in the deepest sense and yet distinctive like chalk and cheese.
The intention to dance and to fight…is what differentiates.
We dance to let go, to enjoy this now and celebrate it.
In awareness is a flow that merges in harmony to synch in with now in artistry of the moves
The warrior is fighting for peace for survival against all odds
Not knowing what is the next move but yielding to the now to decipher the countermove and strike.
Here too there is often a display of extreme artistry of motion in accuracy of time.
To learn both, takes dedication and practice in patience.
But most of all is the need for relentless will & passion to persevere .
Yes, there is a dancer in a warrior
And a warrior in the dancer.
Choice rests within you.
Just remember, to dance is to live the moments and explore its most aesthetic potential in the flow… choose not to make dance a fight.
Stay joyful in peace.
To learn martial arts is to get into the arena and survive.
Attack or in self defense with least possible harm to get out of harms way to stay in peace.
Both may have their own relevance in purpose
To negate one is to look at only one half of the circle
Just as much as joy is part of life
Safekeeping the freedom to be
Is equally important in every now…
Do you want to dance in peace
Do you want to fight for peace.
Choice is yours to make
Peace or war!
Savvy.
Nature’s Wisdom
Wisdom is in the Wind
In the breeze so cool
Wisdom gently rests
Buzzing like the bee
And blows off again…
Singing the song of freedom
Hear it whistling through the rustling leaves…
Showing the vulnerability
Of the moment, now and then.
Wisdom of water is legendary
In its flow is the secret of letting go
Of peace and forgiveness
Of ease and acceptance.
Water is flexible and agile
To adapt itself along the way
Yet strong enough to persevere
And smoothen the stones
Into pebbles in the flow.
To be able to imbibe the profound
Wisdom of the wind & water
Is to know the wisdom of the flow
In knowing that you are not in the flow
But you are the flow!

All Is A Matter Of Attitude
All is a matter of attitude
We create our lives in every now
As we choose to think and be
Our lifes moment aligns itself.
As each individual life begins to see
The value of self awareness and hopefulness.
Life evolves for one and all
Better communities to nations…
We as a world, are more powerful
Than what we choose to believe …
For we are our own changemakers
War or peace is a choice we have with us.

On Trustfulness
Between belief and trust
There is a fine line
That makes all the difference
For to believe, is one thing
But to trust, is to let go.
In this trustfulness
Is where all the magic happens
And where the wonder comes alive
And beliefs finds meaning
In the ability to trust
Comes along the surrender
And the ability to accept the let go
In knowing there is always hope.
To trust, is to know there is
Always Something more
Than you or I
That will have our back
In complete trust
Life manifests and flourishes
Beyond the niggling doubts
And the unfounded insecurities
Trust is the power that creates possibilities
So important to trust and be trustworthy.
Trust and allow yourself to realize its potential.
To acknowledge trust, is a step ahead in faith.

Attitude of Gratitude
Gratitude is a beautiful attitude.
Both in the giver and receiver.
There is certain change of heart
Life evolves for the better.
Yes how beautiful it is
When we begin and end the day
With the grace of heartfelt gratitude!

As Simple As That!
To care to feed your soul
Is to know what your soul truly needs.
Soul is subtlety, that is ever evolving
The soul knows the truths of being.
And yet the soul never commands
Feed your soul with peace
In the heart and mind.
Steer thoughts to think well!
Take care of the body that houses it.
All is transient and yet…
Every now in life can be better.
Feed the soul with love & hope.
Let go of hate and negativity.
Learn the power of subtlety.
There is no secret to evolved souls
Except letting go, without ego.
The ego has no place in the soul
Let go the spurious
You will be happy!
As simple as that.
Savvy
Take nothing for granted
Take nothing for granted
There is always a reason
For things to be, where they are
As they are, however they are…
Let your heart be ever grateful
For things that you have in this now.
And for that which passed you by…
All is well …in this now.
Stay thankful
And take nothing for granted!
