Life sublime



What is it
To meet a friend
Someone new
For the first time
What happens
When you sense
It’s meant to be
You were meant
To meet this person
One day or the other
When hearts connect
Souls align in the sharing
The conversation effortless
The rhythm uninterrupted
Flowing steady and smooth
No abrupt silences
No awkward feeling
It’s as if time is immaterial
As it takes a backseat
Letting you savour the moments
Some souls were always connected
They simply need to meet
And sense the heart felt vibe.

When life feels too confusing
When efforts seem meaningless
When all feels overwhelming
Simply trust and know you are closer
To the path of clarity.
Sharing a few perspectives
On course correction.
And what we as humans can do…
Shifting from pain to purpose
Seeing experiences as learning
Knowing troubles are teaching
Imbibing these lessons as wisdom.
To live life even more lovingly
Sensing the sparking of joy
That ordinary moments hold.
Savvy

It all started with a conversation with one of my dance students of many years. She was going through some life changing challenges. And she poured her heart out.
This episode is inspired from that heartful conversation, I had with her on the many varied situations that confront us all and some perspectives I shared, on managing the self through the challenges.

We all want peace
At all times
But is that peace
If it creates war.
Can war create peace
What peace is peace
That destroys another.
True peace is in ease of being
Peace that flows through
In and around us
That is already within each of us
Awaiting our acknowledgement
To connect and embody
So let’s align with our inner peace
And let the heart share this peace
With the world outside
In thoughts words & deeds l
Let peace be the way of being
It radiates and alters the energy around.

On doing good
You do good
You go the right way
You speak the right language
You live righteously
You choose the right approach
You are kind and compassionate
You act with integrity
But life happens to you
Situations experiences
Circumstances and events
Through you into a maze
Of confusion and chaos
Just like any other
You are left wondering why
Why me, when I keep choosing the good?
Now that’s your turning point
The point of saturation
When light dawns on you.
Life is not transactional
It is transformational.

Music speaks
Tunes us from within
With melody,lyrics, beats
And through it all
Is the rhythm
That drives home
A strong rhythm
Makes itself felt
In every cell of being.
Speaking of strength of rhythm, many songs comes to mind but today the music I choose to share about is a spiritual one that immediately engages your attention and how… it will ground you as much as it makes you move in simply listening to it.
I am speaking about the Ganapathy Talam.
Here is a beautiful energetic rendition
You can listen to my full episode The Rhythm That Grounds You on my podcast Path of Clarity, it is a personal take on this magnetic piece of music.
And speaking of rhythm, do feel free share your favourite piece of rhythm as well.

Life is…
Resilient by nature
For it is the way of Nature
To survive the odds.
I captured this random picture of resilience standing tall and proud along the way in the form of a full grown tree. It was during one of my trips to coastal areas of India. The state of the trunk caught my attention.
Just a message of no matter what is taken away , there is always hope of growth on the anvil.
If we care to observe resilience imprints on every life , we will probably develop a deeper understanding of life in the living and learn to respect and nurture it.

And fraying together
Like weary ropes wearing thin
Knots unravel and fall away
Setting us free
Shaping into wings
To soar again
And be all that we are…
Savvy

When life happens
Wisdom knocks in time
Creating pathway for clarity.
Wisdom is knowing…
When to start knocking
When the stop knocking
And when to let time flow.
For time creates new pathways.
Like a river that flows
Besides and beyond the rock.

Today I am sharing a poem by my mother, Anjana

We will travel far.
In this cosmic travelling
We never know
How far we have travelled
Or how far yet to go.
In what form or in which place.
The mystery is beyond
Our comprehension.
Yet we are aware of
Our presence In this
present moment.
Let us strive not to waste it .
Make every effort
To make it worthwhile
In this long journey
Called Life.
Anjana

Truth is free
Mind controls.
Life is free to be
Living contains
And the spirit
Frees the soul.

The sun and moon
We see from afar
Have much to do with us
Influencing our way of life
Our nature and deeds
Our dreams and destiny
Even the stars in the sky
In that moment we were born.
Time is a circle
And its truly wonderful to know
It’s all deeply connected.

The concept of having space
Between things is a wisdom
A wisdom that creates balance.
Between thoughts
Between words.
Between songs are silent spaces
Between breaths exist space that bridges the inhale and exhale.
Between life
Be it trees , flowers or animals
Space allows it to grow…
Between people
Space allows for freedom to be to express and share
Boundaries create respect and safety
Creating healthy relationships.
Allowing for rest and regenerate
With peace of mind, body and spirit.
A question then arises…
How much space do you need
To protect your peace?
And how much space do you give
To sustain the peace?
