Blooms of peace

Today my mornings photography muse is this beautiful white hibiscus   tenderly unfurling itself in the green foliage..I simply had to click a picture…

There is so much peace

That a white blossom emits

A sense of spirituality

Pervades in its unfurled petals

A guest for just a single day

Who better than this bloom

Gracing my garden today

To teach the truths of life.

Of living life lovingly

Garnering the wisdom of changes

Of impermenance

Its petals. proud & present

In this precious now.

Without worries of tommorow

So much dignity in its beauty.

Perhaps it understands

Transience of nature 

In the phases of life

Only too well

While it blooms  in peace.

A night to remember…

Vision & verses by Savvy Raj

A moonlit night
The beach glows bright
Silvery waves, sugary white

As the last of the seagulls take flight
Evening dusk shadows the skylight.

To behold, what a sight

To remember, what a night.

Apricity

April has come and gone

August too has passed on

Changing months

Changing seasons

Although pleasant and cool.

There is a nip in the air

Winter is soon approaching

Just around the bend.

Across the horizon

I look up at the morning sun

Awakening my senses warmly

In the alchemy of apricity.

This poem flows along in my simple joy of using this rarely used word. APRICITY…the warmth of a winters sun.

Hoping for apricity

Of feeling the warm sun

On a cold winters day…

Wind on sand

Wind on the sand

Gathering gently

Singing sweetly…

Whistling winds…

Humming & howling

Desert dunes

Deep drones

Shifting sands

Slumping steep

Silver on silver

Gold on gold.

Prayer

Turning inwards
From illusions to clarity
Lighting the lamp within
Awakening in awareness
To the timeless truth
Essence of consciousness.

A prayer integrating the body mind & spirit . 🙏

Grace of Luminescence

On a moonlit night 
Embalmed in its luminescence.

Bathed in its argent glow
Graced by the peace in the beam

Radiance lingers in its pearlescent reflection
Drawing us to look upwards

As we are enveloped by its lovely light.

Take time

Take time to see beyond

To care and be considerate,

To be kind and compassionate,

To wonder and stay curious.

​Take time to learn and explore,

To read and discover another,

To revere the precious now,

To stay grateful for every moment.

For life moves forward

As clocks tick relentlessly,

With no respite…

​So choose to reclaim time.

Take time for, and with, the self.

To live lovingly than just exist.

Space for wisdom

Letting go of one’s space

Is not easy

For it is akin to relinquishment.

​Knowing how time and space

And all the other elements

Are never the same again.

​Yet these experiences

manifest themselves

In the journey of life

Perhaps one or many times

​For in that kind of letting go,

The ego of knowing

And assuming dissolves

Yielding space for wisdom.

​Like learning is also unlearning…

​Wisdom is wise in its ways.

It prefers space

And room to evolve

​For it knows only too well

What is, is not all…

​Change is the only constant.

Evolving through it all

Wisdom finds its space to be.

Savvy

P.S.:

These verses found their way to flow, on a particularly quiet dawn in moments of  contemplation.

Sensing how letting go is not easy in our clinging to the past, be it the wins 
or misses and how wisdom needs space to evolve.

And most of all as a reminder  that instead of holding on to the weight of the past, if we only could allow ourselves to be in the lightness of this now…

What is that one thought or habit you’ve had to “unlearn” recently to make room for something new?

I’d love to read your thoughts below.

Way Of Peace

The way of peace is not in war & conflicts

The way of peace is in heartful awareness, as much as in mindful living.

And for peace to sustain itself…
We need to evolve with awareness
We need to recognize the truth of our interdependence.

We need to adapt ourselves
To the changing times.
It will take a realization of the interconnects between
individual well being & collective wellbeing.

Anf it certainly needs acceptance and aligning with the dynamics that peace brings forth …
For peace needs embodiment through conscious choice & practice as a way of life.

Make the way of peace

A way of life.

Birthing in the now

Your birth is not the only time you are born

You are born in every moment of awareness

You are born in every  conscious breath.

You are born in the pain and the pleasures of living life.

You are born in every deed of compassion & kindness.

You are born in the joy of both inclusion and expansion.

You are born in the moments of heartfelt connections.

The truth is you can birth yourself in every now.

Align your breath with presence.

Love & Peace

As you go through daily life.

Just care to remind yourself

That you are being watched over

And cared for…

This simple habit will bring you immense peace.

And you will transmit universal love.

Peace be with you.

Rhythm divine

Songs of life & living 

Vibrates with emotions

Sensed along the  journey of life.

Find smchrony in the sounds

Energizing the spaces

In rhythms divine

In peace and harmony.

Connecting us deeper

With the truth of our cosmic connects.

A gentle reminder…

When the world feels chaotic

Tune in to the divine rhythm

That runs through everything

Umbrella of Grace

Magnanimous grace

Of the divine infinite,

Blessings flow in its presence.

In this ocean of abundance,

Stay still in the tremors.

Keep the faith

In every moment..

Let go of fear & worry.

Know you have the universe

Within, with & around you.

Living Meaningfully

The challenge…

Often relationships are exacting,

at times to the point of saturation.

The heart & mind battle

in contemplations of  resolutions.

The space…

For your own well being,

create a meaningful space around you.

The renewal…

Fill it with all that you want,

be it a hobby or passion.

Let it be something, that gives emotional comfort. 

And watch it awaken your inspiration.

Savvy

In reflection, here are three questions, for you.

In the battle of the heart & mind which one do you usually  tend to listen first?

When the outside world feels just a little too heavy, what gives you emotional comfort?

If you could carve an hour out of your week just for yourself, what passion would you fill it with?

Pockets of peace

Pockets of peace

Are powerful healers

That you can invoke

Anytime,  anywhere.

Identify your pockets of peace

In a day, times that feel peaceful

Is it early morning, noon

Or is it evening or night?

What places makes you feel at ease?

Mountains, oceans or forests

Or do you enjoy a quiet open space…

Like looking at the vast blue sky,

Or the twinkling stars at night.

Do you breathe easy in silence,

Or do you feel lonely for some company?

Does, being with animals birds and nature

Feel peaceful to you?

Alone or with company,

Find your pockets of peace

And sense the connection

Whenever & wherever.
