Feeling Good?


At times life takes you places,

That leaves you in a space of a little ambiguity

Where your senses are overwhelmed

And you may feel awe…

The place may speak to you

In a language that you can decipher.


Ask yourself…

Are you feeling lost, yet free?

Are you feeling free and light?

Are you sensing good vibes?

Of being in the right space?

Are you feeling  you are aligned

To the energies of this place

Are you emitting  goodwill

And sensing potency of the now?

Then you are most certainly

In the right path and direction

Yes, you are in a good place.

Learning from a free spirit



Today I write about my dear and very loving father…

Perhaps the most uncomplicated man.

A paragon of the free spiritedness of a child.

He has an uncanny ability to be happy like a child.

What he desires are little things like a child.

Yes, he knows how to get what he  desires

But the happiness he feels & expresses, in the most ordinary things

That is his blessing of simplicity.


Life can be an epitome of adventure and adaptability.

It can challenge you & test your resilience & reserves

But to be able to be in touch with the inner child in you.

No matter how  life takes its toll on you

Is the strength in the vulnerability.



I dedicate these musings today to my eternally ‘young at heart’ father.

For from him, I have imbibed many beautiful learnings
Will share three, especially relevant here…

  • To be able to find happiness in the ordinary things.
  • To be able to stay hopeful, light & positive, no matter the density in the moment.
  • To think well of all and make way for happy thoughts and share goodwill.

  • God Bless You Dad!

    ARTISTRY OF CREATIVITY …

    Sharing one of my musings written  way back in time… came across it in my feeds.



    To me what is fascinating about the Artistry
    in the artist is the path he chooses
    to channelizes his Creativity .. ‘

    Every artist is unique ….

    Working in tandem with his own techinque

    Every stroke of the brush guided in the silence of a visual imagery

    Marks the stark passion in the heart of divinity

    Sculpting and painting the patterns with conviction

    With personal care beyond concern or consternation

    Blending in the tones and .. while sketching a grass blade

    Molding to the hues in every shade ….

    Life is a canvas colorful or otherwise

    Care to see the value beyond the price…

    Life & Living



    There is an art of life and living
    Be freehearted in giving.

    Sense every nuance of this now
    Express the love of life in this moment.




    Tune in to rhythms playing in life
    Like the dancer who dances
    Emoting through the movements
    Tuning into the  awareness in every step

    Dance with all of your being.



    Connect unabashedly
    Life and times move swiftly
    Regret never the moment lost in doubt
    Engage with this now passionately.



    You will give yourself the greatest gift
    The gift of living than simply existing.
    You will fulfill the purpose of your being.
    You will  make your life worth living

    Stepping out of our own way!



    We are magical beings in the flow.

    Such is the truth of creation.

    Yet, often we are blinded by our own self,

    Clouding our minds with the density

    Of thoughts and doubts.


    We are so full of ourselves,

    Our illusory pride and prejudices,

    Our assumed notions and convictions

    That we forget we are part of the infinite abundance,

    With immense potential in the possibilities.


    If only we can believe 

    In ourselves and choose to trust

    In the purpose of our being.


    Acknowledge with awareness

    The spirit of life and living,

    Choosing to thrive in the flow,

    Learning to allow and acknowledge

    The unfolding cosmic patterns

    By stepping out of our own way!

    Nature fascinates


    We explore it in unique ways
    Some of us lookup at the sky
    Admiring the infinite vastness
    Of spaces above and beyond

    Some of us look down  at the ground
    Preferring  to  dig deep into nature
    To witness the foundation  of living
    Exploring the very roots of the life


    Some choose to dream and envision
    What might be, in  hope for the morrow
    Some sit in stillness  witnessing their breath
    Knowing all the truths of life is within.

    Some prefer to dance with life
    In this now as it unfolds
    Accepting nature as it appears
    Preferring  to make best of its moments.

    We are…

    We are

    Grains of pulsating energy,

    Vibrantly dancing and emoting

    In the sands of time.

    We are

    Moving bodies reacting and responding,

    Patterning uniquely in every now

    To the tunes of the nature of life.

    We are

    So very fragile in the making,

    So very vulnerable in the sensing,

    Yet so very strengthened in the living.

    We are

    Fractal fields of energy transformation,

    Designing and redesigning ourselves,

    Giving purpose to life and living.

    The Journey



    As is above
    So is below
    Reflection speaks
    As is within.
    The journey of life
    Mirrors our way of being

    ‘In every moment of time care to be rooted to the stillness in your movements…
    Care to acknowledge gratefully this strength in the rootedness.’

    Nurturing Faith

    Faith speaks from within

    When Faith affirms itself

    Everything  is surrmountable

    Every problem  finds  a solution

    Every challenge  finds a way

    Nurture faith

    Faith is all there is

    For without faith nothing is!

    Envisioning Beyond Labels



    In every experience there is always learning
    To move beyond the apparent
    Every concept is potential  in possibilities
    Such is life and creativity
    It is the way of nature in abundance…


    To be able to see the bigger picture
    To see beyond the niggling bits
    And envision the larger good
    Is the need of the hour. 


    So much of time, earth has borne
    The onslaught of man and his needs
    But its time to think beyond the self
    And move beyond  being bound by labels.


    Find ways together and seek
    Solutions than problems.
    For truly we are so much more
    Than the way we label ourselves…

    LETS MOVE BEYOND LABELS
    & KNOW THE POWER OF OUR BEING.

    The Creator’s Touch

    A dear friend shared this video clip with me yesterday and I immediately penned these words…



    The creator flows
    Envisioning…
    Creating patterns 
    In the living
    Every phase
    Deeply connected
    In the tapestry of life

    Everything has a reason to be…
    Every shape, every line
    Speaks of life lived
    Every shade, every colour
    Every tone & every tint
    Portrays the truths of living
    Every curve depicts
    The fullness of life.

    In the creators touch
    Art becomes artistry
    In the state of flow
    Where the creator
    Merges with his creation
    Emanating soul to the art.

    Beyond the looking



    What truly makes a difference
    Is the way we see things
    The way we envision it


    What matters is apparent
    And yet at times hidden
    In the veils of Illusions


    When you truly want to see
    There is a certain  clarity in things
    Truth emerges in attention.


    There is more than what appears
    There is always a learning
    In envisioning beyond the  looking.

    On Action

    An action that builds confidence is better than inaction which arises from fear.

    At times the action is a success, at times , may be the action needs a new direction to be successful but action is better than no action.

    Imagine

    What if?

    A place of stillness

    Columns of concrete

    Standing silent

    Affirming its presence…

    An artists work

    Of imagination

    Creativity is a flow

    Imagination transcends

    Artists beyond dimensions

    Illusions dances & shifts itself

    From real to surreal.

    Technology enhances imagination

    Giving wings to its flight

    Here I have simply used it

    To sense its effects by thinking

    What if?

    Which picture strikes you ?

    What are your thoughts on it?

    Imagination is full of possibilities.

    Please share…

    I just did.

    Here is the original picture I took in France and enhanced it digitally.

    The picture is of this uniquely interesting sculpture by Aurelie Nemours one of the emblematic figures of geometric abstract art..

    Situated in Rennes France these columns are called….The 21st Century Alignment. It is a monumental work: 72 gray granite columns, four meters and fifty high, arranged on a concrete rectangle and punctuated by the course of the sun.

    What looks like simple blocks of stones, is a modern contemporary art,
    they pay homage to the Carnac stones of Breton France the largest collection of megalithic stones erected by Pre-celtic people which are also said to have astronomical connections.
