A memory rushed in through the photograph I chanced upon.
A decade or more back, I remember how I passionately volunteered to train seniors to dance at the local church in Mumbai. This photograph is a reminder of them praying together on my birthday.
And we celebrated with a cake…
I knew not them beyond the Dance class.
They knew not me beyond the dance
But this motley crew of seniors
Made me feel very special
On my birthday and on every Monday too.
The day of their dance class.
Meet we would at 6 pm sharp
Without fail come what may…
These warm and courteous seniors were always on time….
These simple unassuming souls
Somehow etched their place in my heart.
Will cherish the memories forever
I thank them for trusting me & having me around.
And more importantly for the kind prayers & blessings.
Sharinge my earlier post again for this new year as it is a deeply meaningful excercise in Gratitude and Positivity to me.
The Gift of Life …
“When I was a little girl I often have witnessed my dear father see and give great value and acknowledge every little good that is or happens , however small they may seem to others. It could be a with a gentle word, a tiny appreciation or a little compliment. He taught me one of most important lesson for a lifetime… to notice, respect and reflect on the good in and around us… and to live positively and think of life always as Plus++++es .
Life is beautiful as it is and it is in us to see it so …”
There are always special moments in every one’s life Making life meaningful and memorable Often it’s pure serendipity… When your memory jogs you to remember such a moment.
What makes the memory strong? What you are associating it with, That is what makes the memory stronger.
Next time pay attention to whatever you want to remember. What emotions and feelings can you associate with it? As your visualisation gets stronger Your memory gets better and will fade lesser in time.
Now remember to visualise with vibrance. Choose as you please, Scents & fragrances of places Nature & friendships Colours of Emotions In all its vividity &feelings.
Soon you will build on all the happy times. Keep adding your treasure chest of memorable moments.
The sun is shining… And yet the weather is so cool & nice. A gentle breeze is blowing every now & then, it’s so very refreshing!
As I was finishing my yoga practice with some balancing exercises… Standing with one foot on my mat and staring straight ahead, I spotted it.
The dance of this single dew drop balancing precariously on the branch of my lemon tree. Swaying in the wind. I kept witnessing it’s beauty & while I winded my practice, it kept me rooted in rapture. I just had to capture it for eternity…😊 As the dew drop danced with gravity and the wind. I hoped it would still be right there when I went to get my phone.
I fiddled around to adjust my camera hoping to catch its glory sooner than later… 💙
This is my first photo of a dew drop…
What a beautiful morning! 💕 Hope you too find extraordinary joy in the little things of life… ❤️ Wishing you a blessed day! 🌼🫶🌼
Did something happen? Did you get hurt? Are you in pain? Do you keep hurting Time and time again Still thinking of it Is it the circumstances That repeat itself? Or is it you who has to change?
Are you ready? To work on your own self?
Cultivate your inner strength Release let go pain Let go slights & insults Step by step Bit by bit Acknowledge the hurt But overcome it In practice learn to flow over it And once you do You move over it Care to ask yourself What is the hurt all about? Where is it hurting the most? Whatever your answer Release it consciously Let it go… For the now is meant to change Such is the truth of nature.
Its your life You are responsible To create a garden of your life Make sure you strengthen The walls with gratitude for life Value the life in every now Bloom some more Be the best you can be!
Someone asked me what spiritual growth means to me …
Here is what I spoke about in a nutshell
Harmony in mind body & spirit Integration in Self awareness Developing greater understanding & Empathy Humility & Kindness Humanity & Compassion.
Living in the lightness of being Acknowledging Grace in Gratitude Sensing true freedom to be…for the self and others. To flow with life in serenity. Sensing the joy in the ordinary.
It’s about acknowledging & sensing the space in around me
It’s about giving in the receiving and receiving in the giving
Witnessing the evolving patterns and freeing the self from limitations of the mind.
Evolving in the learnings, valuing the connection built in time. A mindful & heartful practice in conscious awareness. Letting go of unnecessary things Understanding the value Of the gift of life Making life meaningful. Living life lovingly!
And in knowing it’s so much more….
Please feel free to add what spiritual growth means to you?
Create a space of calm Inviting you to a journey Alluding you in subtlety Through natural authenticity Keeping it simple & minimal With intriguing unintentionality Allowing a space for austerity Sparking divine connectivity Evoking movements in the stillness. Invoking stillness in the movements.
Once there came to the court of the Prince of Birkasha a dancer and her musicians. And she was admitted to the court. And she danced to the music of the flute, the lute, and the zither. She danced the dance of flames and fire, and the dance of swords and spears; she danced the dance of stars and the dance of space, and then she danced the dance of flowers in the wind.
When she had finished, she approached the prince and bowed her body before him. The price bade her to come nearer, and said unto her, “Beautiful woman, daughter of grace and delight, whence comes your art? And how is it that you command all the elements in your rhythms and your rhymes?”
And the dancer came near and bowed her body again and said, “Gracious majesty, I know not the answer to your questionings. Only this I know: The philosopher soul dwells within his head, the poets soul dwells within his heart, the singers soul dwells about his throat, but the soul of the dancer abides in all her body.
