Heartfelt Vibe

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.

Course correction

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.

On Self Management

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.

Energy of peace

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.

Who said life is transactional?

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.

Rhythm that grounds you

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.

Resilience

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.

Unravelling

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…

Knocks of wisdom

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.

Cosmic journey



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

Spirit of Life

Truth is free

Mind controls.

Life is free to be

Living contains

And the spirit

Frees the soul.

Its all connected

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.

Space

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?
