A picture that is open to so many interesting interpretations…
Is this a stairway to heaven The path that sets you free Steps that lead the way To the light of eternal truth
Your life is given to you A knowing is bestowed upon you In hope that you will seek And find the truth of your being. All answers are within you To sense and understand Life is both hell and heaven if you wish. All it needs is a stairway to the within. Savvy
To dare as much as to retreat In the ebb and flow of life Waves teaches us much! To reach the pinnacle of success Is one thing But truth of nature is, it changes.
So the glory must recede in humility Such is the way of balance. There is no gain the holding on There is grace in the letting go! Such is the circle of life .
Children are creative innately and their childish curiosity often opens up the spaces yet unexplained and quite unexpectedly so.
Speaking of a child’s imagination and an adult’s ability to retain a childlike mindset, it boosts the creative thinking with fresh and unbiased perspectives. Much is in the way we perceive the arising patterns.
Complex problems are also known to be solved with this kind of approach. In the very ability to allow the self to let go, one’s vision broadens.
Old school methods of education often restricted the divergent expansion of creativity so as to structure its flow to converge in rigidity. But applying this agile & flexible approach can be an enriching experience for the mind and body.
In allowing ourselves spaces for our thoughts to self pattern in free play, acknowledging open-ended questions, of what if, how, why so and dare to dream fearlessly, andwonder, we might discover a pattern that connects the unfamiliar or yet seemingly distant dots.
A child like enthusiasm
Awe and wonder
Curiosity coupled with imagination
That knows no bounds
Could perhaps be a great creative approach
To solve complex problems.
For ultimately it is a matter of connecting the dots.
Every day early morning a little girl would come to the temple and stand before the idol, close her eyes and with folded hands, murmur something for a couple of minutes. Then open her eyes, bow down, smile and go out running.This was a daily affair. The temple Poojari was observing her and was curious about what she was doing. He thought, she is too small to know the deeper meanings of religion, she would hardly know any prayers. But then what was she doing every morning in the temple? Fifteen days passed and Poojari now couldn’t resist but to find out more about her behaviour. One morning, the Poojari reached there before the girl and was waiting for her to complete her ritual. He placed his hand on her head and said, “My child, I have seen since the last fifteen days that you come here regularly. What do you do?” “I pray,” She said spontaneously. “Do you know any prayers?” asked the Poojari with some suspicion in his voice. “…No” Replied the girl. “Then what are you doing closing your eyes, every day?” he smiled. Very innocently the girl said:“I do not know any prayer, but I know “a,b,c,d….up to z.” ‘I recite it five times’ and tell God that, “I don’t know your prayer, but it cannot be outside of these alphabets.” Please arrange the alphabets as you wish and that is my prayer.” And she ran, jumping on her way out. The Poojari stood there dumbstruck, staring at her for a long time as she disappeared running in the wilderness.
This is THE UNCONDITIONAL belief in God that we pray.
They can trust you They can take the step They can be creative They can try options They can make mistakes They can get support They can improvise They can win!
A great team has a great leader who has their back!
Betwixt and between The you & I, The us and the we, Is a ocean of multiverses. A tapestry of metaverses . Springing into existence Creating connection Beyond compare Ingenious innovation Reaching beyond the known Forging ahead dimensions Unfolding technology With palpable sensations Creating new possibilities Exploring potential Understanding elements Of space, time and distance Challenging norms Quantifying needs & wants Finding solutions In a changing world Simplifying complexities In the realms of life & living.
Yet as this booming bubbles Is it a catalyst of changes? Some sensational and brilliant Some scary & confounding Simply know it’s on its way And is here to stay As our world will redefine Life beyond existence…
Accept… There is bound to be a boom Colloidal chaos & confusion In chasing an unreal world And finding hope to live on In the very illusions in making.
Know… Everything life appears now Is a momentary phenomenon. Of perceptions that deliver The solutions for the soul.
Musings on Positive Mindsetting and Optimism by my mother Anjana.
Love this piece by her.
Seeing the glass half full or half empty makes a lot of difference to your mind set. Positive thinking is not to ignore the negativities of matters or situations. It is to see the options to overcome the obstacles in the best possible way. Seeing goodness and being positive reduces unnecessary stress and unwanted heaviness of heart. It lightens the mind, to a cheerful mood and to a healthy you.
Being positive does not erase the difficulties or seriousness of the problem. But when you look at the light out side the dark tunnel, finding ways to cross the darkness becomes easier. The severity of the dark cloud fades away when you have the bright Sun in your vision. A positive mind strengthens your will power to cope up in situations , reduces your stress level resulting in a healthier you, increases life span.
A positive mind can identify and filter the negative thoughts at its seed level and tries to steer away from it. Devoid of imaginary fears you can see problems at its reality with an optimistic mind. Approaching life, facing its realities with a positive attitude makes solutions easier. It gives you better resiliency over adversity, reduces depression, improves your immunity. When your mental strength is increased, it becomes easy to identify and manage challenges, to bring out best positive results.
A positive mind makes you more stronger, , more communicative, more people friendly, more humorous, & healthier. It makes you a better person to be with. Always be positive, be happy, be healthy. Surround yourself with positive people.
