On Fame

Fame is the shadow of passion standing in light

Kahlil Gibran

When a good deed

A noble act

Invokes fame

Fame stays on…

Entrenched in light of goodwill.

Embedded in that light

Passion perseveres.

Such a fame is worth experiencing…

And yet there is always  a price to fame

While fame brings glory

It also brings expectations along

To live up to … for a lifetime.

There is loss of privacy

As you sway into the limelight

Being in the public eye can be daunting

There can be a loss of personal freedom.

Even though  it creates opportunities

For it presents platforms

As it changes equations.

As it builds reputation.

Thoughts go on the desire for fame.

Even tbough there is a price to fame

Or would one choose the world of obscurity?

What are your thoughts on fame?

Do share.

Manifesting Abundance

I walk across the golden sands,

Leaving footsteps of my of my memories

Flowing in faith across the lands

Celebrating life in the moments.

I sense something limitless

As I dare to share,the truth of me.

I touch the truth of my potential.

Abundance manifesting itself.

Love begets love

Great is the energy of love

And coupled with kindness and compassion, 

Love heals hearts like nothing else❤️

Beyond the self

The world around  us

Is interacting all the time

The way we choose

Becomes us.

And each of our choices

Through our intentions

Becomes deeds of our doing.

It’s all in us

In the thinking and intending

For the good of all

Beyond the self.

Quality of the Spirit

What to speak of charisma

That some have as an aura…

A way of being , a radiance 

More than just their attitude

Or the way the carry themselves

A quality of the spirit of the soul

That magnetic quality beyond the physicality

That emanates joy and well being in Abundance

Without a single word…

Would you  know someone  like that?

Who comes to your mind?

Inside Outside

Today I thank in gratitude

The power of the mind

The heart and the spirit

Our body is blessed

With many gifts of the soul

Which we are yet discovering

The strength of intentions

The power of intuition

Of conscious awareness

In practice of mindfulness

Of possibilities in our potential

In the movements of stillness

In the stillness of moves

In the silence of meditation

All, in this journey within

Betwixt inside outside & beyond…

On Imagination

Imagination…

Lives not in the past or house of tomorrow

It is here very much in the now

It traverses along wherever whenever you choose to go.

It comes from you, within and beyond you.

It chooses nothing but opens to everything

It wants nothing for itself.

All it takes is your intention

And your awareness.

Hope is here to stay

Today I share not one but two different scenarios as poems, I have written for the following verses on hope. 

Do share your thoughts on it.

“Her eyes wander to find him

Amongst a sea of faces

Knowing he is there somewhere

Hope is here to stay “

The first love

She was a teenager  in love

For the very first time

She felt the joy

To express with all her heart

The joy of being with another

Two hearts  so full of love

In a world all their own.

He wrote her poems

And read each one out loud

It was an idyllic love

Too good to be true

And in time life happened

And they parted ways

But the feelings still the same 

Etched in memories

And never forgotten

No matter the ravages of time. 

Yet life never stops for any one.

Life brings in beautiful moments

That makes life worth living 

People come people go

But memories, last at eternity…

The Mother

She is old and wrinkled

Yet oft her memories rush

To that fateful day

When a trip to the beach

With friends and family

Changed her life forever.

For as the sun set on that day

In that crowded beach 

She lost her only son

And the meaning to live on.

And to this day,  in every crowd

Her eyes look out

Searching for her little son 

In a sea of faces

No matter the river of time …

Life has its own challenges

For every life in the living

But hope is unending

For hope is here to stay.

Strength of Interconnects

Sometimes what’s truly profound

Can be profoundly simple.

The strength of interconnects

Is about the strength in self support

In the world of design

What seems complex

Could be extremely simple.

In the way of interweave

In the intersection of the interconnects.

All is in the strength

In the sum of the intersections.

Watch  

The Bridge of Safety

Leonardo Da Vinci’s Self Supporting Bridge. Leonardo Da Vinci was an artist, inventor and engineer in the 15th century.  His vision and calibre of mind allowed him to comprehend the twin worlds of science and art; he has
often been described as the archetype of the “Renaissance man”, a man whose seemingly infinite curiosity was equalled only by his powers of invention . He was a master of innovation, ingenuity and engineering.
He invented the self supporting bridge sometime between 1485-1487 to be used as an emergency bridge for troops in times of war. This unique design is held together by its own weight without requiring any ties or connections, in fact when a downward force is applied to the structure the braced members are forced to interlock and tighten together through the structural concepts of shear and bending. Da Vinci called it “The Bridge of Safety”.

Haste makes waste

There is always time

Time never is lack

Lack of patience

Is lack of time management

In lack of time

There is hurry

To make things happen fast.

Without deliberation

Confusion and tension sets in

Building up pressure

Creating doubts & distress

In the lack of coordination

A recipe for hasty decisions

Creating more waste 

Of time, energy and resources

Along the way.

So think through

Haste not waste not.

This Now

This now is a dance
Whirling in between
The then and the forthcoming
The sun moon and stars
Too make their presence felt
Swirling in their cosmic paths
This you is swaying to life
Listen keen as the sands sing
Hear the whistling winds
They like you have a reason to be
In this now being where they are
Just like you right here in this now.

View from the top

How different is the view

From every angle in sight?

What makes it so stark in contrast

And so varied in interpretation?

How the colours of life change?

How easy it is to believe,

What you see as the truth,

That nothing else could be reality?

What you see from the mountain

Is different from the plain.

The eyes are the same.

But the perception is different.

What’s your energy like today?

I came across these lines this morning…

We either make ourselves miserable ,
or we make ourselves strong.
The amount of work is the same

— Carlos Castaneda —

Questions for the self

What are your thoughts like?

What is the work you do making you feel?

What is the energy  you sense ?

Are you  feeling strengthened by it?

Your answers will reveal much to you.

Your choices, your way

A painting by Savvy Raj

Every thing that interests you

Every word that you choose to hear & say

Every book you choose to read

Every thing you choose to do

Every place you choose to be

Is an open book of yourself

Your choices come from you

You have it all within

In your choices is a dimension

Of your own truths.

Embedded with in you

Awaiting emergence.

You manifest your own way.
