True learning happens when we realize we are the teacher and we are the student. And life teaches the greatest lessons without anyone uttering a word or at times in just the sheer presence of a good soul.
Likewise as we move from our hearts and open ourselves to realization and acceptance of new possibilities… true learnings happens!
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.

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.

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…

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.
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?

On Freedom
Freedom is being able to be all of you
But remembering the rights
Of other lives to be all of them
When we understand…
Our Freedom ends where another’s freedom begins.
So then
How free do you feel in this now
How important is freedom to you?
Can you sense your life flowing
Or is there restraints that bound you
Can you express yourself without hesitation?
Can you speak your mind without fear?
Can you write without worrying if the words may reveal your nature?
Can you walk alone without a care where you live?
Can you wear what you want without fear of ridicule?
Can you dance the way your spirit moves you?
In short
Can you flow in harmony with the spirit in you?
If you have answered more yes than no then consider yourself closer to being truly free.
Freedom is not for giving
Freedom is there for taking
Freedom is being you
As you truly are
Freedom is living
Without facades.
Wherever you sense
You are most you.
Now…
How free are you feeling
In this now?

‘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…
Savvy
You may try to aim for success
You may strive for your success
But success that really matters
Is the one that lifts up another
The one that changes lives
Where humanity thrives
Because every step, every action
Speaks louder than words.
Success stories are interweaved
In the tapestry of time
In the circle of life…
Lift another life
Savvy
Your body mind and spirit
When in harmony
Makes life and living easy…
How you see yourself
What you feed yourself
The way you treat yourself
The way you think
Life becomes it.
Be kind with yourself as much with others
Practice self care and compassion
Self care isn’t selfish
Exercise consistently
Think well
Stay strong
Eat healthy
Practice Hygiene
Make friends
Nurture connections.
Sleep well
Take care to relax
Enjoy the journey
Live life lovingly !
Savvy
It’s never just about existence
There is always more
To life and living.
Something in the offing
Something in the sensing
Something that’s not yet palpable
To think we exist for ourselves
Is to have never existed to all
Forget about living life.
We thrive most
When we help each other thrive
That way we sustain our thriving
Life is meant to be lived & loved
For all that matters in the end is
Have we lived or just existed?
Savvy
A prayer is a bow of acceptance.
A prayer is a joyous amalgamation to the divine within.
Savvy
Logically
There is always a reason
For things as they are
For people to be who they are
For time to be as is
So dont worry!
Just be happy…
