Let us move with grace
Of fluidity to the new year…
Fluidity of the flow
Is soulful artistry
Both in experiencing the flow.
Being in the flow
Is about aligning
Towards the purpose
Of being the flow.

Taking a decision
Decision is often the difference between greatness and mediocrity. In every man’s life there comes a time when he must search for a cause, a work, an ideal to which he can give himself. Whether he says ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to the challenge will determine his future.”
Wilferd Peterson
Taking any difficult decision
Without sitting on the fence
Is not always easy
For it may take all of you
More than what you are ready to commit at times
And yet its liberating
Once you have a decision made
For there is clarity in thoughts
To set things in motion
Leading you to your purpose.

On Kindness
We must realise how vulnerable life is, but beyond feeling victimized and create further suffering due to negative thoughts…
We need to respond with empathy, show unity through kindness and compassionate deeds.
The power of kindness is truly infinite.
KINDNESS IS THE PRAYER IN ACTION.
Be kind…to yourself as well!

Kindsight
With a rich imprint of lessons
The past is behind you
Full of hope & promise
The future is yet to reveal itself
The now is the present
It shows up in myriad ways.
Can we learn from the past
And apply it to this moment
Can we shape this now
And make it matter
Can we breathe in kindness
And make a difference
For this now and forever.
All we need is a willingness
To accept a shift in perspectives.
Savvy
What’s going to matter?
What’s going to Matter
Is the way we use our skills
Each of us is uniquely blessed
But how we choose to be
Is in our hands
Skills are just tools
But your emotions and thoughts can alter life
Let it guide you to do better
Transform your attitude to life and living
Life evolves for the better.
Savvy
A new beginning
A new day
A new role
A new path
Paving way
For the start of something new
Inhaling to align in the new
Exhaling to let go the spurious
All in hope, trust, faith
And belief in the way
Of true abundance.
Savvy
Be in this Now
Past is gone
Future is yet to arrive
One gone in time
Another in a distance
What is now
Is the reality to sense.
Let everything else just be
Live this now!

Paradox of Beauty
Arrested Development
Great things can come in little packages
Like a Bonsai perhaps
Standing majestic and magnificent
No matter the proportions
But what does it endure to be?
Life without freedom
Is a life of constraints & restraints
A life of arrested development
Is beauty winning over freedom to be
Is the desire for aesthetics and a taste of experimentation
more important than freedom for living life fully
Stunting growth is no way beautiful
Be it Shackles on feet with chains or tight shoes in the name of beauty
On the other end there are many examples of prejudices of beauty working itself in society.
Delibrate acts of elongating necks with chains of gold is considered a norm in some parts of the world
Why is life so brutal to life
In the name of beauty?

Life lessons
Life lessons
( Translated by my mother from tamil forward)
The 9 laws of Karma
- Whatever we do in this Universe will come back to us.
- Nothing will come to us by itself. We have to work to get what we need.
3 when we learn to accept certain things then only change will happen.
4 when we change ourselves Life will also transform.
5 We should realise that we only are responsible for whatever happens in our life. - Past, Present and Future all are interconnected.
7 We cannot think of two things at the same time. - Our behaviour should reflect our thoughts and actions
- If we keep on thinking the past, the present will pass without living it.
Let there be peace and happiness everywhere. Let all prosper and live a fulfilling life.
The Art of Slow.
Whoever thinks being slow is a weakness
Has not understood its power
In being able to slow down
The propensity to think carefully
To pay attention to detail
To be mindful & cautious
To work with precision
Steadiness and thoroughness
Increases manifold.
In slowing down, nature teaches
Great lessons in letting go
Like time cannot be contained
Moments are meant to flow
It’s own course
Yet the strength of the slow
Is in the ability to live the now
Recognizing the value of life.
There is an art of the slow
Where the senses activate
And creativity enhances
In thinking and reflecting
In careful consideration
Slow is challenging for some
Yet slow can be earnest practice of mindfulness
Slow begets a response than reaction
Slow can be about building up gradually
And exploring the possibilities
Of the potential in this now.
Slow can be a deliberation
In patience & perseverance
With an effortless grace
Such is the art of the slow.

Lightness of being
Life is full of challenges
Along the way
For each and every being
In their own unique ways…
Am reminded of the saying…
It’s never about the weight
But the way you carry it.
Lightness of being
Is knowing how to steer
Through the hurdles
In effortless grace.
Beautiful to witness
The ways of nature
Sometimes maneuvering
At times adjusting.
But mostly thriving.
No matter the odds.

On Kindness
To combat terrorism we must start thinking globally not just locally and realise how much our world is hurting all over from all forms of violence .We must realise how unpredictable these attacks can be unfortunately. But beyond feeling terrorized and create further knee jerk reactions, due to negative thoughts…
It is time to respond with empathy, and show unity through kindness and compassionate deeds.
KINDNESS IS THE PRAYER IN ACTION.

On Prayer
Profound truth of Prayer
A prayer is a resonance to the self.
Often misunderstood are the recitations and stories of God
As offerings in prayers.
Oft repeated to children in their growing years
Or often in communion of like minded souls.
It’s never about reaching out to distant God
But about connection with the God within
Invoking the divinity in you.
Praising the lord
Hymns or chants
Slokas or mantras
Is about healing & transformation of the self
In consistent practice
It generates positivism
Purifying the energy
And creating goodwill
In thoughts and deeds.
Like exercises for the body
They exercise the mind
To think & evolve for the better.

A space for you…
Is there a space you love to be
Where you feel most you ?
Where there is respite from chaos
Where there is peace for the sensing
What is that place for you ?
Your home or somewhere far away?
While I love people and enjoy my time with them
And infact get charged by some amazing conversations
I would also love to be by myself
By nature preferably walking
In the calm of a forest trail
Or perhaps on a winding road uphill,
Would love to have a flowing river by my side
and most of all be surrounded by trees
Or even up the mountains
Watching the world from a vantage view.
And then comes the sandy beaches and sea
There are of course those moments to cherish
With the whistling dunes
In all I would love free spaces
where I could sense the earths energy undisturbed.
And be synched in for a while.
May be hugging a tree or an animal
Or walking by a beautiful stream
Or under a canopy of stars at night.
These are spaces for me
To connect deeply within.
How about you?
