The dancing dew

Dancing dew… Photo by Savvy Raj

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!

Bloom in Resilience

Moving beyond….bloom again

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!

What is Spiritual Growth to me?

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?

Space of Calm

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.

On Positive Intentions

Wellbeing is an art in itself and it begins with a positive intention.

What Is Art?

What is art?

But a transcendence

In sublime understandings

Invoking inspiration

Awakening aspiration

Collaborating in creation

Sometimes seeking

Sometimes speaking

At times questioning

At times challenging

Emoting provoking

Allowing thinking

In the sensing more

Acknowledging critiquing

Receving in the giving

Giving in the receving

Ever flowing…

The Dancer

Sharing one of my favorites

THE DANCER

An Excerpt From The Wanderer by Khalil Gibran,


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.

On Spirituality

You can’t talk Spirituality
You got to live it.
Often when life takes you far
Far away from it…


You got to know
The divine that you seek
Is with you in every moment
Your actions thoughts and words
Decides the distance between
You and your spiritual self.

The Divine You

Art by Savvy Raj

There is a dance of divinity in every cell of life.

There is the interconnectedness of life in every being.

Be conscious of the universe in you.
As well as in others
Be empathic be humane
Sense answers within
Find  the light within
Feel the abundance of Love
Sense the divinity in you

Sense Peace
Work inwards
Evolve from within.

Whispers of Wisdom

Mother Nature’s
Whispers of wisdom
Is in and all around us.

Just care to look around.
Just have little time to listen.

The drizzling rain ,
The gentle breeze,
The spreading fragrance of blooming flowers. Soothing all those around.
No discrimination.
No differentiation.

The mountains touching the clouds,
The trees that stand tall and high,
All whispers
That transcience is eternal here.
Spring and autumn are just cycles .
Be in equanimity
In highs and lows.

The sun, the moon, the mighty ocean,
All the elements of nature
Just whisper
Discipline, punctuality,
Valuing boundaries in spite of immense power,

The bearing trees,
The green fields.
The flowing rivers
The very earth we stand upon,
All whispers
Humility,
Generosity,
Patience,
Selflessness,
Nourishing,
Nurturing.

The lessons are many.
How many we carry?

For eons are these
Timeless whispers.
When will we have the time and patience
To listen and learn.
To practice and bow down.

A poem by my mother Anjana

A Magnificent Masterpiece

Life is a reflection of our Creators magnificence

Of manifold dimensions, of magic and mystery 

Sometimes mayhem and melancholy…

Yet moving on to its own melody 

Mostly manageable and markedly memorable 

With every majestic thought of magnanimity …

All is truly well in mindfulness and moderation.

We are all masterpieces in making.

 Moving to unite as one with the master  

Only to manifest  in time as another magnificent  masterpiece

First try

I am truly fond of trees & of nature in every form. This is the result from the first time I used AI to create an image. And I was truly happy. For it generated from my few prompts, a very powerful & poignant picture, suiting my sensibilities.

Aesthetically & artistically it speaks much, especially liked how the red blooms emerge from the sides of the trunk interestingly juxtaposed & rightly so to colour balance the whole rendition well.


I love the light in the background especially behind the trunk of the tree. Of light that is gentle like dawn. As if to say I am there  arising, just around to dispel darkness.


This above artwork I had posted yesterday on my blog post Light, it is a result of my imagination brought to reality by AI, the creator from my thoughts and words & it’s unparalleled knowledge and inputs. Perhaps I got lucky or perhaps my words hit home… I landed with a complete artwork.And suffice to say, I am truly happy with the results. I decided to add it to my profile pic.

What do you think of this artwork ?


What about you? Have you started  trying AI images? What were your first experiences like? Did it meet your expectations?

Did you have to tweak your words & prompts? What was the feeling like? Were you able to relate with your output ?

Endless are the possibilities

In the collaborative effort

Of art & the science of it all

In expansivity and inclusion

There is artistry in the congruence

All it needs is to take a step

In self belief, trust & faith!

Light

Digital Artwork Savvy Raj

As light dawns
It dispels darkness
Spreads hope & cheer
Bringing joy & happiness
To all touched by this light.

As the waves of light
Transmit itself in the world
Hearts heal and life regenerates
For light is meant to be light
Care to sense the light in you.
