I feel therefore I am

If I were to keep feelings aside
I would perhaps become cold
And impersonal
Perhaps I may function perfectly
Like a robot.
Wonder if I would be well at all
For feelings are a great balancer.


To repress our feelings
And take decisions would make our decisions lopsided.

I am therefore I feel
I feel therefore I am.

Whether it’s personal or professional decisions, our feelings do make a difference and play a role  in our decisions.  We can perhaps bring to awareness how we are feeling in the Now and use  this mindfully to bring a sense of balance in our thoughts & actions. But to think or say, we can be completely devoid of it is not necessarily true for we are built in such a way where our emotions,  feelings and our thoughts in every moment is  deeply interconnected, in more ways than one.

Feelings of empathy compassion and acts of kindness are deeply entwined.

How you are being in the now has much to do with how you are feeling.

To do anything well you need all of you & your senses to come together. How we choose to act upon our feelings and in what manner will depend on us.

Awareness is the key.

Do share your thoughts…

Learnings from a tree

Today is a new day…

Like a flowering tree blooming everyday, with hopeful buds

Make a promise to yourself to live and greet each day with enthusiasm.

Yesterday is gone by and today is a new day…

Let not your past
Come in the way
Of all that you are
Leave yesterday
And live today.

For your present
Is what matters
The past is lived
And this now
Is yours to live.

The Dance & The Dancer

How can you separate the dancer from the dance?

For there is no one without the other

Body and soul united in spirit.

When the two meet there emerges energy

In unison of the cohesive oneness

The heart knows what the mind speaks

And mind tells what the heart wants

In the dance of the lead and follow

There is no one without the other.

 There is a draw of passion

There a pull of power

And there is the push of purpose

To flow as one in the moment of the now!

Embedded is the dance in a dancer

Embalmed is the dancer in the dance.

All of you

Play like a child can and be ready for wonder

Work like you are truly invested in it

Dance to embody the truth of you

Love with all of your heart and soul

Live like there is no tommorow

All it takes is all of you!

Shine on

Shine your light

The light of you

That comes through you

Your voice your truth

Your speech your words

Your work your authenticity

Your moves your way

Step into your light

Step into your place

Fill it with all of you

For none can fill this space

There is no other like you

For you are unique.

In your own way

Shine on.

Seeing light

Your yesterday may have seemed very tough
Your entire body may have taken a toll
Your head and heart may have felt heavy
Your eyes may have welled up in tears
Your emotions choking you
Your breathing may have been constricted
Your muscles may have felt tight. Your steps laboured and dragging
Perhaps a sense of resignment may have reigned all through the day…


Yes it may have been more than you could handle
But handle you did
For you are alive and kicking.
Today your heart is lighter
And you are breathing easy
With a song on your lips
And a dance in your steps
Your body willing
And in enthusiastic spirit Looking forward to another day
To put in your very best
And make it another great day!

The question is then, what is  happening in you, one moment to another
And what are you doing to alter the effects of the moment.
And what actually alters everything.
Simply put, your own thoughts
And the power of your choice
Choosing one thought over the other.

Trust life to show many colours every day but know you have the choice in how you choose see and perceive it.

Every day can be good or bad day…
But it’s in the way you chose see it… That changes the day!

Power of Belief

What do you think you deserve?

The answer paves the way

To bring it to your life.

As you intend

You believe.

As you believe

You intend.

You manifest your intentions.

The universe gives you,

As you think and intend.

Your thoughts matter.

Believe well.

Think well intend well.

For it matters more than you know.

Add your thoughts…

Learnings in the sharings.

The best kind of learning is in the sharing of thoughts and ideas, for it kindles more learnings.

I share today this interesting and profound para forward translation from Tamil by my mother to which I too have added a few verses.

If it interests you, pls feel free to contribute your thoughts here… The message in the translation is very relevant. I sincerely hope it creates a chain of collaborative thoughts.

Today is Gurupurnima. And I take this occasion to thank my mother my first Guru & all the teachers in my life for the learnings in the sharings as well.

The fish which swims in water, doesn’t know that it’s end will come by its food only.( Ignorance)

How much ever beautiful the deer be, the tiger doesn’t appreciate its beauty,  it is behind its taste. (Pride, arrogance)

Translation from Tamil by Anjana

There is no pride in Beauty
It matters not, in times of survival

The frog becomes prey to snake by its sound only.(boasting)

In spite of knowing it will get killed , the scorpion bites ( haste)

The way to one’s downfall is ignorance, pride, arrogance, boasting and haste.

Anjana

Adding my musings to it this morning…

The wisdom of Mindfulness

Ignorance may not be bliss after all. There is no pride in Beauty
It matters not, in times of survival
Your so called assets can be a weakness
That makes you and marks you out.

Without mindfulness
Moves become meaningless
For one move can decide life’s fate
Without survival tactics
Life cannot exist.

Beauty pride vanity speed
Gifts & Riches of any kind
Abilities and skills…
Be it your voice or earnings
Mistake not these  your strengths.


For true strength
Is discretion And discernment
In what how when and where.
And in moderation & mindfulness
Lies the Wisdom Of Balance.

Tune in

As you dance
Tapping your toes
To your own heartbeats
Life senses your rhythm
And waltzes along with you,

The joy of life
Manifests itself
Tuning into the melody of the harmony.
Creating music that beats in the synchrony.

Faith Love Truth

Master your mind they say

Before it masters you

Acknowledge the truths of life

For mind is full of thoughts

Creating countless thoughts

Know the value of mindfulness

Being mindful is about self awareness

To master the mind

Master your thoughts

Become aware of this now.

Whatever is this moment

Sense it and you breathe in it

Feel it and be alive in it

For the truth is in every moment

What you decide to do in this now

Has power to change and rearrange

Your state of being.

Life is precious

Have faith and trust

Stay hopeful in every breath.

For the truth is you can.

After all the mind works

On what you feed it.

Being alive

Being alive and having life
Are two different things
All have a life
Many acknowledge it
Few live it with will
But far few live it with love
Life is life after all
It’s in you
How you choose to live.
Life is for you to acknowledge
Know you have this one life
Care to live life lovingly?

Embrace your U- ness

In your uniqueness lies the strength

Of Authenticity

Of Identity

Of Potential

Being you and being true to yourself is the simplest path towards your purpose.

And yet often being you at times can be challenging.

For life can demand much from you and you need to go beyond and bend backwards and forwards to surf through life’s unexpected turns.

But by being true to yourself you are at least sure to have your heart and head in check and balance, where your inner conscience meets your consciousness.

Embrace and embody your U-ness

A dot called now

Sharing Words of wisdom … from my mother Anjana Radha… A beautiful thought for the day 🙂

‘The “Now” is a dot. in the line – of life. Without touching the dot we cannot connect the past to the future. Just Be in the Now to witness a beautiful connection.The NOW is always present . Like so many dots form a line so many’ Now’s shape life to a beautiful past and a hopeful future. Our conscious awareness gives it meaning and purpose.’
Enjoy the moment:)
