Growth is a revelation
To your own self
So much of you
Has outgrown the past
The version of you
That you would not relate
In this now for life is changing
As new versions of you
Emerge in every moment
You grow as you evolve.

Taking a decision
Decision is often the difference between greatness and mediocrity. In every man’s life there comes a time when he must search for a cause, a work, an ideal to which he can give himself. Whether he says ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to the challenge will determine his future.”
Wilferd Peterson
Taking any difficult decision
Without sitting on the fence
Is not always easy
For it may take all of you
More than what you are ready to commit at times
And yet its liberating
Once you have a decision made
For there is clarity in thoughts
To set things in motion
Leading you to your purpose.

Gratitude for the interconnects
Here’s to the believers
The trusters and the hopeful ones
For those who keep the hope alive in their hearts
They work to change the world for the better
Practicing their arts & live their passion in purposeful ways.
It is through them values are practiced passed on and sustained.
Power to the practitioners in knowing that there is always more…
To learn unlearn and relearn.
For everything interconnects
Keep the faith
For faith is all there is.
And without it nothing is.

Oneness
In knowing we belong
Is a trust in the anchor
In sensing belonging
Is the confidence of interconnect
In between you and another life
Where Oneness is sensed
In between and betwixt
The you and I
To us and the we…
Such is the power of community

Now
In this now…
Imagine each moment in this now
Is brimming with possibilities
Each moment is in a choice you make
The way you feel, the attitude you carry
It charts its course, of how it impacts you.
You are immensely powerful
In making the most of the moment
Your intent to see and visualize
Can change the moment for you
For moments are, as you see them.
Choose to see life with a love-filled heart
Choose to see hope beyond despair
Choose to see the joy reflecting from you
Choose to shape and sculpt the moment.
Choose to smile from the heart
Choose to channel the energy of this now
Choose to steer in positive thoughts
Choose gratitude for this now
For all that you are, were and can be.

Listening & Respect
Listening is about attention
And being present wholeheartedly
Respect is a two faced coin
You gotta give to get
Sincere attention is sincere respect!

Kindsight
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.
Savvy
A new beginning
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.

An Alphabetical Tribute
Sharing another from my mother’s writing today… it happens to be one of my favorite pieces from her.
Nataraja The Lord of Dance , represents the never ending cycle of evolution and dissolution.
The Master who has conquered the five elements , dancing to his tunes.
An Alphabetical tribute to the
The Divine Dancer condensing the essence of cosmic energy in his form n action.
Nataraja – The Cosmic Dancer
Absolute and ultimate dance of
‘Being in the Now’, where
Celestial Creation & Destruction
Dance hand in hand in
Energetic, enigmatic endless flow.
Formless blending into The Form.
Gift to Cosmos. Unfathomed
Happiness undermines the
In-depth, concealed caring of
Justice to prevail, in the
Knowing of the Unknown all.
Lasya ( dance of creation) and thandava (dance of destruction) both
Merging in and emerging from
Nataraja,The Cosmic Dancer.
Oneness personified in essence.
Purity and Power as its source.
Quietude emerging in the motion.
Rare culmination of creative
Subtlety of concealed infinity.
‘Thath thwam asi,’ , that’s the Truth.
Unknown, Unsaid and Unseen
Visions of Ultimate Reality.
Worlds far and beyond knowledge
Xceeds the human excellence.
Yearning _’To be with IT ‘ is all one can wish with the
Zeal of unwavering Faith

The Art of Slow.
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
Lightness of being
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.
Savvy
Hope you dance…
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!
