When you look at other people through a lens of compassion and understanding rather than judgment and jealousy, you are better able to see them for what they are—human beings.” ~ Unknown
The way we see the world
Changes our experiences
Lesser expectations
Greater contentment
Lesser assumptions & doubt
Greater trustfulness
Lesser hopelessness
Greater possibility
Lesser the complexity
Greater the clarity.

Add a little love
To whatever you do
Love is the secret ingredient
And love makes all the difference
Love can be expansive
And yet inclusive in nature.
For sense is the essence of love
Nature of love is truly giving
That I wonder at times
Is there such a thing
As too much love?

To flow is to witness moments
Change in the river of time
To flow is to realise
That change is the only constant
To flow is to make space
For something new
Let go, to let flow happen
Let the blessings flow!

Exactly eight years ago!
With love from Athens Greece … 🙂 At the World Dance Research Congress Greece UNESCO as a representative member from India 🙂
An example of Unity in Diversity…. Approximately 400 conferees from 40 countries of the 5 continents.!
Today in India, so glad to write this, the dance community that represents India internationally has grown from strength to strength … yet ‘Spot me’ if you can … I was the only woman representative from India at that time.
An amalgamation of such an association and the resulting experiences leaves one enriched for a life time. The practice resulting thereof in pursuit of excellence becomes important. In the awareness of the possibilities in dance applications on the human psyche and form, the responsibility of making a positive difference in your purpose is strengthened.
Power to more such immersive and experiential collaborations in the art of dance movements across the world. 🙏

Cage not the heart
Of those who dream of the yonder.
Beyond the clouds, over the hills
Their spirit seeks to wander.
Far across the horizon, their soul belongs!
Cage not the soul
Nor the spirit of life
For it is free from form,
Travelling across time.
Sensing freedom
In every now
Is the way of the spirit
And the wandering soul.

Can you hold your breath,
Can you hold the moment …
You have to let both go in time
Nature is meant to be free
You are meant to flow
Sense your movements
Have a rhythm of its own
In this dance of life.
Witness and acknowledge
Life’s myriad expressions
Live and let live
Savvy
Says it all
You matter
But until you believe
In the powers within
You remain dormant
Existing but not alive
The strength of belief
In trustfulness and faith
Makes you persevere
In thoughts, words and deeds
With a passion and purpose
Impacting the world
In and around you.
Sense the significance.
Of every life.

I am because you are & we are because they are …
Let us all care to value the strength of the interconnects in the interdependence.

Came across a thought provoking quote by Henry George…’Man is the only animal whose desires increase as they are fed.’
Simply shows the need for a conscious awareness of contentment.
On contentment…
When you consciously plant the seed of Contentment in your heart …You realize how much you already have.

Art of life
Is about living
With care and consideration
Being aware of moderation
Everything is best in balance
For excess is wastage
Of precious resources
When body mind and soul
Choose in consciousness
Tap into your body intelligence

Heart of the tree
A vision that made me happy today
Cheer fills the air
Sun kissed leaves shining bright
The ground feels delightfully cool
Under the giant canopy
Fresh breeze and heady fragrance wafting through
Life is truly fine and well
Under this giant tree….

This week finds me traveling yet again to another city.
I realize the sights and smells that greet me as I set alight also set the expectations.
Yet one thing has never changed in all my travels
My inate ability to wake up at dawn no matter when I sleep.
In the hotel room I am suddenly abound by precious time. I also enjoy the practice of having warm water with a just slight dip of a teabag for a second so its more flavored water than tea.
I sense many moments of great connectedness in this unadulterated time of sipping tea. I love it best propped in bed with my feet all tucked in the warm sheets The warm concoction ever so gently bringing in the old familiar fuzzy feeling of being at ease, and accommodating my palate and me to the sensations of a new place. Over many such moments of serendipitousness & the familiar deju vus that wash over me, I have been privy to my musings in verses that flow effortlessly.
Like I am doing in this now…
Moments matter and your movements in the moments matter a great deal.
Hold this moment that is, in rapture and awe
It’s precious for it will slip away
Never to meet again in posterity.
But in creating a ripple effect of positivity through the movements in the moment
What is the future can manifest from this now
Care to alter your life for the better.
Alter your moves…
So what’s your kind of move in this now?

A dedication and fond wishes to my daughter on her Graduation Day!
Congratulations and many blessings!!!!👏 ❤️ 🙌
Today as I prepare to attend my daughters graduation ceremony in one of the prestigious institutions in France, serendipitous moments washes over me of the many memories of nurturing my child.
I present here, one of my older posts written when my daughter was a growing teenager… but still true in every word.
On Staying Happy In the Now….
As a mother of a growing teenager I have been witnessing a number of amazing experiences that only a mother and child are privy to and I hold each of these moments close to my heart. I watch as my child is evolving into a vivacious yet emotionally intelligent teen, bubbly,full of life yet practical and sensible with a heart and mind of her own.
Although my heart oft yearns for some of these wonderful moments to stay on forever, I know I have got to let it go, as time and tide waits for none. But each time I have this immense respect for this power of the infinite to carry on creating, and wonder where all this harnessing of energies is taking place. And to this divine form, which could possibly be creative feminism or the power of Shakti, the creator I humbly bow and hope that you bestow some of latent creative potential on all the beings around for them to evolve to the best of their beings .
Coming back to the silent amazement that I feel is the way in which a child is moving from a situation of pure bliss of ignorance on to the happy in the here and now state of existence and later on moves on to a state of awareness of the world with all its actions and consequences.
Gradually the child starts searching a meaning to this life and its relation to the world at large.
More than everything else I watch as the curiosity leads to discoveries and at times frustrations to accomplishments.
I, as a parent can try to necessitate an awareness in my child to be holistic in her thinking process. For instance, from a very young age, if reading and writing are made an enjoyable habit, it definitely hones & helps balance thoughts, as one learns to be aware as well as acknowledge the sequence of changes bound to happen…
After all change is inevitable and the natural order of growth . It enables one to have a beginning, middle and an end to a thought or action and thus helps you learn to be present in the moment and also let it go. This makes you less prone to being a victim of situations & circumstances of life.
Happy in the here and now is a wonderful habit to cultivate for all of us; however it is equally necessary to have a focus in life and necessitate actions towards that goal and evolve further. This adds meaning in to life and life begets the ultimate satisfaction of having lived consciously.
Loving every moment of life and learning to be aware and conscious of each moment as it passes by is a fact ,which also can be so easily learned watching your own child grow…
Thank you dear child as you teach me the lessons of life and living fine.
