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.

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.

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.
Savvy
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.
Savvy
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?
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

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:)
Every one faces difficult people in their lives. And for some like service sectors, coaches, consultants and medics, their job has many moments of handling difficult people and tricky situations as well.
There are many types of difficult people
Like the pessimistic ones who always find what won’t work first for anything new. They have nothing positive to say or share. But always play the devils advocate.
Handling them can be extremely difficult in front of a team full of people but it is wise to acknowledge them and then reframe their perspectives with a positive positioning and interpretation to turn it around carefully.
Interestingly there are a lot many in the know it all category, with an attitude & arrogance of knowledge & experience to boot.
An effective way to tackle would be to appreciate them but ask them to share the data and facts associated with what they proclaim to ensure authenticity. It is also challenging but necessary to request for humility in these peer to peer conversations.
There are then those who are two sided who say nothing to your face but are habitual complainers. There is a need to understand the origin of of their doubts and worries and where they are coming from in order to work it out thereby creating a safe and secure atmosphere.
“Think of difficult people as
sandpaper
They may rub you and scratch
you painfully but eventually
you end up smooth and the
sandpaper worn out… stay
happy and enjoy life…”
raymund salumbides
Difficult people are difficult to handle. But it’s not impossible or something to shy away from. Simply the handling needs discernment and care. And not everyone can handle difficult people. Tact, diplomacy, confidence, clarity of purpose and vision go a long way in handing difficult people and problems.

Life is an expression of the soul…
The soul goes through life
Like a rough diamond that gets polished
The body & mind take a toll
Many times over in a lifetime.
To shine like a diamond does.
In the shaping & moulding
Through the experiences
Garnering wisdom in the living.

Today I happened to glance up at the sky
I was taken by its beauty.
Brilliant hues of blue
Adding brightness to the world
Whiffs of white clouds floating around
Like cotton fluffs patterned as two beautiful swans
Swimming in pure blue sea.
I imagine then,
The Spirited sky sending forth a sign…
Around the horizon, a tinge of orange yellow sun
Spreading hope & possibilities.
Savvy
I listened to my heart
Every day
As it shares from within
And I write them out as words
Sometimes as verses
At times it’s measured
In moderation.
Its a zen moment
For there is clarity
In just a few words shared.
Then there are times
They flow like a river
A torrent in a current
Patterning itself
In its own making
Words come through me
As if it needs to be spoken
Sharing the sensitivity
Of the moments at hand.
I listen simply with rapt attention.
For in the slightest flutter
In every movement in the moments
Or the depth of silence.
There is always something more.

Why walk in shadows of dark
When light is just around the bend.
Walk in light
If you can’t see the light
Find the light in you.
Trust your inner light to show you the way.
Love the light that you actually are!

Everyone has a different idea of true happiness.
What do you think you need to be truly happy?
Is it love?
Is it hope?
Is it purpose?
Is it inclusion?
Is it health?
Is it material or non material?
I do think happiness is an inside job.
We are responsible for our happiness.
Feel free to share your thoughts on happiness.

Good thoughts
Good deeds

Value the life in you
To care enough
And take care…
Then You are enough for you.
