Soul of my soul

Reaching out to the radiance

That lights my being

Feeling the magnificent way

The glow paves my path.

Seeing the grace unfold

In all its glorious resplendence

Aligning with its presence

In the breath I take.

Witnessing life transform

As darkness gives in to light

Sensing the space of lightness

As energy balances its flow.

Soul of my soul

Your omnipresence I revere

As you work your magic

Through me…

Unearthing The Self

Photo by cottonbro on Pexels.com

Covered in the grime of life

Masked in the mire of living

Seasoned in the sands of time.

Life may seem meaningless,

Submerged in the shadows.

Yet trust time in its flow

As it unearths the Self.

In its own unique way

P.S

This poem flowed in a moment of  silent contemplation…

I pose a question to you

Looking back at the layers

Life brought forth in time

Are there more, that are shielding you?

Or are there more that you want to wash away? 

And more importantly…

Are you ready to unearth the Self?

I hope in reading these verses, it brings in a sense of pause and trust, wherever you are in your own unique journey of unearthing the self .

Twilight

Twilight expresses the moment of change
In the most gentle of ways.
Change that allows
Change that accepts
Change that acknowledges…
that transition takes time.
It also holds moments of awe and wonder.

Yet change is rarely felt this way…
For change can be the difference
Between the dark and light
Of the night and day.


Humans are hardwired
To fear change in doubt and  uncertainty
But change is the only constant.

However… humans are also wired in hope
To trust transitions of change is hopefulness
And hope is here to stay.

River of time

How far have we come
From the many versions of ourselves
In this river of time
Where like water, that flows onwards
Time can never be visited backwards…
Only in memories
Held within the hearts & minds
Reminding us of the paths traveled in time.

Life continues to evolve in every now.

As life flows on …

Colouring  itself

Along the way.

I share this above digital artwork here from back in time…when AI  prompting and image creation was very nascent.

Way Of Peace

The way of peace is not in war & conflicts

The way of peace is in heartful awareness, as much as in mindful living.

And for peace to sustain itself…
We need to evolve with awareness
We need to recognize the truth of our interdependence.

We need to adapt ourselves
To the changing times.
It will take a realization of the interconnects between
individual well being & collective wellbeing.

Anf it certainly needs acceptance and aligning with the dynamics that peace brings forth …
For peace needs embodiment through conscious choice & practice as a way of life.

Make the way of peace

A way of life.

Birthing in the now

Your birth is not the only time you are born

You are born in every moment of awareness

You are born in every  conscious breath.

You are born in the pain and the pleasures of living life.

You are born in every deed of compassion & kindness.

You are born in the joy of both inclusion and expansion.

You are born in the moments of heartfelt connections.

The truth is you can birth yourself in every now.

Align your breath with presence.

Who are you?

Beyond the name, I am the space between the breaths, the sum of my senses.


Beyond words, a witness & the resonance of infinite possibility.

Beyond deeds, I am the dance of life…
Beyond  speech, I am the breath that experiences life.


Life is a gift, granted in this lifetime.
I ground myself in gratitude to simply be.  🙏

Join in with me for a  moment of  alignment…
With the body, mind, heart, and spirit
That houses and helps in evolving the soul.
Infinite thanks to the parts
That weaves us into a whole.  🙏

Ask the self, ‘ Who are you?’

What are you feeding your mind?

Master your mind,” they say,
“Before it masters you.”


Acknowledge the truths of life,
For the mind creates
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 this moment is,
Sense it, and breathe in it.
Feel it, and be alive in it.


For the truth lives in every moment.
What you decide to do in this “now”
Has the power to change and rearrange
Your state of being.


Life is precious.
Have faith and trust.
Stay hopeful with every breath,
For the truth is, you can.
After all, the mind works
On exactly what you feed it.

Making sense of it all… 

Experience eats degrees for breakfast.

Technology tosses experience and degrees topsy turvy.

Al turns skills redundant and age immaterial.


Wisdom turns knowledge into learning.

For learning never stops.

Humility allows for growth…

Making sense of it all.

Art lives on…

An artist leaves much more
than creativity in the artwork.

There is a voice in every frame,
speaking deeply if you care to listen.

That voice carries the artist’s choices
of color and composition,
of style and strokes,
of moods and feelings
breathed into the birth of art.

The artist speaks through the work.
The energy of the artist is embedded
in words, in lines, in shapes and forms.

When a piece feels complete,
the artist releases it to the world.
And yet, the energy lives on,
transforming itself through time
and the spaces it inhabits.

Art is transformed again
in translation and interpretation,
reshaped by those who encounter it.

As creators, whether of images or words,
our work continues to live,
each viewer or reader sensing its energy uniquely.
And so it flows…
transforming itself in time.

What Sustains Humanity?

Nature of humans.

Nurtured in love.

Seeding compassion

Watered in hope.

Reared in kindness.

Strengthened in trustfulness.

Rooted in connectedness

Fortified in faith.

Sustains humanity.

The Game Changer

Often it is in the adversity,

you meet your true strengths.

In the tests of life,

you find your true self.

That which you discover

in these challenges,

arrives in the journey

to steer you on your path.

So hold on, in trust & faith.

For no matter what,

all in not lost.

You will find it in you,

to begin anew. 

In experiences of adversity, 

you meet yourself.

And that’s the gamechanger.

A question to my reader…

If you were to think of the past challenges,what comes to mind as a strength you uncovered about your self that you wouldn’t  have found any other way ?

The Quality Of The Spirit

You are not defined

By riches or possessions.

You are defined

By the attitude you carry.

Anchored in faith

No matter the storm.

You are defined

By the energy you emanate…

In the choices you make,

In the decisions  you take.

Way beyond circumstances.

It is a quality of the spirit.

Greater the refinement,

Greater the grace.

A question  in reflection…

When the world outside gets chaotic, what is that within you that keeps you anchored?

The Power of Calm

There is charisma in calm

It’s the power of calm

In life’s highs and lows.

In calm lies confidence

Invoking assurance

Being calm in a conversation

Evokes the energy of stillness

Emits vibrancy devoid of agitation.

In the calm there is depth of  awareness

In the center of calm

Is potential  to assimilate

No matter the chaos

You find equilibrium.

When was the last time you felt the charismatic power of calm?

What does calm feel like to you in this now?

What is the distance  between you and your sense of calm?

Where & how do you think you can find your calm?

The morning moments

My morning  moments have the preciousness of calm for me.I choose dawn to intend the calm for the day ahead. In the quiet moments of dawn where the world is still sleeping, I find my creative state of flow. Although I have been able to connect  with my calm through the day, the vibes of this part of the day resonate so much. The early morning  sets the tone of the day for me.

How do you relate to the calm of dawn?

How do you sense the power of calm?

The Gift Of Change

Here I share one of my own paintings and a personal  favorite fron my collection.
Savvy Raj

In the vortex of life

arrives the gift of changes;

the breaking of the bubbles,

Of long held beliefs,

Of false ego and resistance

Of fear that limits.

Like the wind that’s too fierce  to contain…

Cleaning the cobwebs of confusion.

And life transforms for the better.
