Wisdom of Change

Knowledge is one thing, understanding is quite another. Knowledge needs constant upgradation as it is never ever constant in the dimensions of time and space. The pathway to true wisdom is in acknowledgement of the possibilities of the new or the yet unknown.

Wisdom is in knowing beyond knowledge.

To think universally and act globally; to begin with and see the structure in chaos and relate to the rhythms in nature;

To follow along the infinite beginnings all leading to the same place — ‘Your true self’;

In a knowing that allows you to exercise free will to be who you are;

And that thoughts are but a tool for the thinking, that allows you to process the integration of the self and the entire cosmos.

Self and beyond —

Is there a distance and a difference?

If so, how far and of what?

Physical and social,

Mental and psychological

We may think immediately.

We may be set apart in time and space, yet we are so similar in vulnerabilities,

Persevering in hope and knowing the truth of mortality.

We breathe the same air, live in the same world.

We learn to see wisdom in change, in the interrelation, in the interdependence, in the interconnects.

So, in the wisdom of the wise, the wiser and the wisest

Is the understanding of the knowing behind the knowledge

To make sense beyond their meaning

And in the knowing, change begets wisdom

To accept from ordinary things can permeate untapped wisdom.

That the ‘ordinary’ possess nuggets of wisdom

In the knowing is the learning.

Then, there is no search, all is within —

The change, the changer, and the changing.

Change is inevitable, but you are the one in charge of how the change impacts you and how you respond to the changes.

Dare to dance with it! Dance with life!

The Healing in the Giving.

March 15, 2017 by Savvy Raj 6 Comments

Healing wounds of the heart and mind.

Time heals wounds and brings on wisdom as the pain settles in course. This helps in most cases when there are no answers for questions that have no end. Life is easier when time moves on and one lets things to settle without raising a storm.

Healing happens in accommodation and acceptance, in the understanding of an issue at hand as much as in acknowledgement and acquisition of a cure and the options available.
Intention begins the healing…
Actions takes the course
Cultivation of patience continues the healing
Dedication to the action ultimately heals.

So try to take care of any deviation disturbance and fluctuation from the path.

Healing the world through the art of giving

Give that which you may feel you have a lack for. Give of yourself more. And you will find giving the true nature of being.

There is an abundance of love within for you to realise. You just have to acknowledge its presence in your life. It is always in and around you waiting to envelop you for your own preservation.

It is the mental makeup that needs clarity amidst the reigning chaos. All the storms all the obstacles will be surmountable in the realisation of your potential to give more of yourself to yourself and then extending that to the world at large. The energy of love you help create has immense value to our world. Every vibration matters in space and giving positively manifesting with love and resonates the peace and goodwill across the dimensions. Such is the healing power of giving.

And our world needs this most in every moment … Care to give?

A love like that!

What is life if not sensed with the tenderness of the heart?

What is life if not sacrificed at the altar of love?

What is life if not moved from the depth of the soul?

What is life if not loved beyond the shackles of time?

What is life if not consumed sublime by the arrow of the heart?

What is love if not coached into nature of life by the nurture of love?

What is life if not cleansed through tears of yearning?

What is love if not set aglow through the embers of passion?

What is life if not basked in the warmth of love?

What is life if not pining in the patience?

As love conquers you, it blesses you in the knowing.

Make not a mockery of love.

Serenade love and allow it to speak truth.

Love surfaces from the depth of emotions

To mend you and this world a better place.

True love is eternal,

Free as bird in flights of oblivion,

Travelling in the abandon

Of the wilderness of the spirit

Yet bonded in the boundless infinity.

Endless love is a gift of grace.

Acknowledge this treasure,

Blending two souls in one

As a life loved is well-lived. It is such a rare sight!

What a blessing it truly is… A love like that!

Realizing the many miracles of life is also in knowing a love that can move your soul. We can consider ourselves lucky to have been touched by a love like that!

Learning Spaces

October 3, 2016 by Savvy Raj 2 Comments

Sharing my reflections on learning spaces and how I can imagine it.

Being a dance educator spaces in and around me are of great significance and especially a learning space for dance education.

A space that’s open yet bounded with a focus can be conducive to learning as when the process of exploration begins it is helped by a structured approach.But while boundaries may be reminding of a journey having a destination, it is the openness that reflects the never-ending source of creativity.

The spirit of this reflection will be when both the voice of an individual or the collectives of a group is heard. Where the voice of concerns is addressed in trust, honesty and empathy.There is solitude to absorb your understanding as well as companionship for conversations to test, reflect and enhance learning.

A space for learning can be contemplative, restorative, uplifting, energising, stimulating, regenerating, calming, accepting reflection as after all the horizon of learning is always expanding.

A Blessed Day

Across the distant horizon, resplendent in all its radiant hues sun shines on its blessings and bejewels the sky. The leaves unfurl themselves a little bit more ….with strength and energy and basking with confidence in its radiance. Knowing the biting cold of the night has moved away, they glide lovingly content in this moment that glows with warmth!

The buds awaken themselves and bloom willingly only to reveal their astoundingly tender beauty. And soulfully they turn seeking the brilliance of the magnificent sun …catch them dancing the dance of beauty and grace that’s shimmering in its rays…Maybe they know well the time they have with the sun is precious and know they must live it with all their might ….and behold it’s a breath-taking sight!

Who better to seek, to understand the preciousness and wisdom of time, than from a tender flower amidst its unabashed beauty.

Time is precious! Fill your day with purpose! Live the moments ….lovingly!

Bloom and be blessed.

Seeing Beyond The Looking

Intersection

The Art of Science & the Science of Art.

There is more science in art than we ever will know and there is more art in science than we can ever sense.Yes, everyone is entitled to a difference of opinion and that at times may prove to be a costly mistake. However we are not into mistakes at the moment but about the art of science that acknowledges the metaphysical aspects of being seeing, knowing and sensing in the living among others.

Yes, science is evidence and proof based. It is logical and conclusive which makes it irrefutable but that is where it is stumped in reflectivity of the limitations that does not acknowledge the potential of infinite possibilities. Inroads in science although has travelled much in time has yet to prove a great many things about life and existence.

Although it is known to be a fact that the University of Bern did reject Einstein’s initial application for a doctorate in 1907, the above letter may have been verified for authenticity and questioned on many accounts after it became viral on social media. The letter for Einstein may have had its moments of the disappointment of how the world has perceived his vision at that moment. But time and space dimensions changed the entire picture for him and the world at large and what he said became relevant for its theory for those interested in the subject, its impact opened up new dimensions of thought.

Art takes a holistic view of the nature of life and is inclusive and expansive in nature. And this fundamental difference becomes the point of distinction which makes a huge difference in the art of seeing beyond the looking.

The acceptance of the manifold possibility that art brings could be the very reason for its expansive potential in world affairs and resolutions whether it is a matter of peace or war. Having said so, solutions are not in either art or science alone but is in the emergence of a stream of consciousness in awareness of a meeting point of art and science, the melting pot in convergence to transcendence. A space that is inclusive of the ‘ Artistically scientific’ in temperament and ‘Scientifically artful’ in structure. And we have travelled on far, as we stand today from the looks of it, the realisation is knocking already. It is just a matter of speculative probability on what swings the door open and how aesthetically we do it.

Inside Outside

Bridging the patterns of consciousness

In every quest towards our being, the exploration at some point delves deeper into our own self. The inner self, speaks to us all the time at times complementing and other times contrasting with our outer self This can lead to altering states of awareness. Like our outer persona that is projected in this world our inner self is capable of wide range and facets of expression and although it is not defined by our disposition attitude or culture, it can express itself whenever it chooses.Our so-called subconscious other self and destruction amongst may other things can be an intuitive support, the forbearing friend from within our being.

Human beings are not one-dimensional in nature. To the inner self ‘the concepts of ‘bad’ and ‘good’ as usually interpreted are not defined by society’s culture and belief and destruction are the universal life truths evident in every decision we make , it arises from an inanate natural instinct for survival.The outer projections of the self is through an intricately webbed network of a balancing act between the emotional and mental states and its physical manifestations. So while the inner and outer self can be completely at odds with each other yet they feed each other and perhaps are evolving as they learn from one another.

Likewise every life exists on a physical plane as well as in a metphysical plane and perhaps amongst many other dimensions yet unknown, where the interconnects run deeper than we can fathom. Although life in every living being can seem an extremely individualistic in effort and approach and may seem justified as unique to its being, life thrives in the connectedness. This understanding is amplified whenever there is emergence of equanimity in thoughts and deeds in action and response than reaction. The arising patterns is seen then as a dance in every clarity in the consciousness. The ultimate truth is, we’re all one and interconnected in everything in sublimity .
