My piece of sky…
As the winds blows
Waves of patterns
Flowing like fluffs
Of cotton clouds
Waltzing in the sky!

Stillness within
Stillness within
The whirling wisdom
Centers within
The search for being
In a knowing balance
Of within and without.
The gaze is never a stare
The moves are never a dare
In fact the flow is sublime
One leads unto another
Nothing marked nothing missed
Nothing focused nothing lost.
In such a state of flow
Where wholeness of being
Is the strength of a circle
That creates unto itself
There is a knowing
Of a space within
An inward glance
Into the souls calling
Springing forth
The sounds of Silence.

On writing
Grateful for this moment
With this day I complete 300 days of writing continously and publishing my works on WordPress.
Gratitude for the creativity from within and thankful for the experiences that allowed me to go into witness mode.
As a writer there is a space for thoughts to collect and flow as and when you feel like it.
This gathering of thoughts is moments of reflections in ruminations
Of life experiences
Of circumstances
Of happenings
Of situations
Of silences
All resounding reverberations in the responses to the resonances.
Writers need to be grateful…
Writers without pressure
Are at ease to allow thoughts
To seed as they germinate
And settle as they arise in time.
A far cry from spoken words
That simply must happen
When the speaking happens
For it its often relentless in the flow
Unchangeable and undoable
My gratitude extends
To writers and my readers alike
For in the flow of these words
Forged are many friendships
Linked in through these inked expressions.
For the buds of creativity blooms and thrives
In support and appreciation
So grateful to be able to write.

Every Word Matters
“Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates: Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind?”
Truth
Words of truth when spoken
Nourishes the speaker and the world
Cleansing the toxic facades of lies
Creating a trustful disposition
Let truth prevail.
Need
Every word matters
Words are priceless
They are worth their weight in gold
Waste not words unnecessarily
For they will lose their value
Speak when words need to be said.
Kindness
Let the words you speak
Flow from the heart
Let it emanate kindness
Let it open the gates of love
And embalm the lives it touches.

Acceptance
When life pans out
All the colours of the spirit and soul
Just as much as the joy’s in the hues and tints.
There are many shades and tones that challenge…
The path is interspersed with light and dark
Reflections of light
Dance and disappear
Like the passing clouds…
At times an incessant downpour of density
Like unrelenting thunderstorms
Even flashing lights through without respite
Excesses have a way of wearing itself out.
Like the colours of nature
Are known to balance themselves out…
Accept to blend and flow
In the seasons that change
And yet stay clearly distinguished
Maintaining the beauty in their vividity
Know the night moves on to the day
All is in flow in the circle of life.

A Hug Is A Magic Circle!
A hug is a magic circle …
A power within your reach
To embrace the good
And let out the unwanted.
Celebrate yourself be joyful.
The warmth of a hug
Flows like a river of joy
Healing with hopefulness.
Of love and tenderness
There is no special time
Every moment is willing
And waiting to be hugged.
Reach out with care
And spread the love today
To all your special ones
Share the magic you possess.
It has the potential to bring peace
To aching hearts and warring souls
Give a gift of tenderness
Give a hug today!

Capturing Movement…
Whenever
In art there is a flow
Of feeling
Of movement
Of emotions
Of energy
Displaying the skill of the artist
There is…
A sense of completeness
Inspite of rawness
A sense of wholeness
Inspite of the roughness
Opening up sensations
In the heart of the viewer
Delivering the meaning
Of the spirit of the soul.
As then the message conveys
The very purpose of the art.
When art speaks to the heart
Art moves the soul.

Spare a thought
Would you spare a thought
For the way your appear
Yes indeed
People spend millions
For the way they look
Beauty is big business
Image consultancy is huge now.
But would you spare a thought
On the way you make another feel
Your words
Be it in written or spoken
Have immense power
To hurt or heal
For words leave lasting impressions.
Tune in to the way you sound
Check your pitch and tone
As you speak to another
Reread the words you write
Remember words live on in eternity
Think twice and check
If what you write can make a difference
To someone somewhere
Spare a thought
As you take a step
Every step leaves a trail
That another may follow
Choose to step well.
Thoughts to action
Words to deeds
Each play a role
For all are significant
In life and living.

A dance of infinite wonder
A bird, a tree & a mountain
Far above at the top of the tree
The birds perch themselves on the branches
Ready to fly on moments notice
They are light and free
Deep in the ground the roots of a tree
Growing in the thick of things
Amidst the densely packed earth
Digging deeper in stability.
On higher ground the mountain rests Gradually building upon itself.
Or chipping away itself to erosion
Witnessing it all as the world whizzes through…
As the birds fly away
In search of food or when predators strike
And the trees bears fruits
As roots grow strong.
Life and living have a reason to be.
Witness the wisdom playing through
Every whiff of the wind, every bit of stillness
Every sway every bend every move
Every thing that is was and will be
For all is a dance of infinite wonder.
Who are you like
The bird
The roots of a tree
Or a mountain
What do you resonate with?

Being thankful
Do we remember to thank every day.
Yes most days perhaps not always. Sometimes life can be tough too!
Are we grateful to life?
Yes deeply grateful
But we often take it for granted too!
A reminder is sent along
In the most unexpected turns of events
Sometimes to value what we still have
To remind us to let go the frivolities
To spare a thought for the blessings
And offer a prayer for them.
And thus pause for a moment
In gratitude for the good and the bad
And all things in between
In knowing all is well
As all is meant to be.

What to let go
There is a heaviness in thoughts
That accumulates in time
Holding on to anything
Creates dependence.
Learn to let go!
What can you let go then?
For starters…
How about anger and vengence
Grudges and resentment
Remorse and bitterness.
Each time you let any of these go
You breathe a sigh of relief
For you make space for life.
To lighten your self again.
You can create your own ease of being
To dare and dream once more.
Without doubts and restraints
To pull you back.
Then let go of irrational fears
That keep you down.
As you detach and let go
Of things that weigh you down.
You begin to express with all your heart.
You will realize the dreams
That matter most to you.
Let go of the unneeded things.
Let go of the unwanted fear.
Let go of stressors that threaten your health.
Choose to be well and full of love
And choose to let go, be light.

Power of love
Love is an all encompassing
Connects of the heart to the soul.
For when the heart speaks.
All of life understands.
Words become insignificant.
As hearts connect in the knowing.
For in the power of love.
All is one & one is all!
Harmony flows
In the very being
United in understanding.
Of love as a gift of grace!

L.O.V.E
Are you where your feet are?
Are you where your feet are?
Can your heart and mind meet as one?
Can your thoughts & deeds mean the same ?
Are your words from the heart?
Are you comfortable in your own skin?
Do you feel one with yourself?
Are you grounded enough?
Are you where your feet are?
Are you truly in this now?

Once upon a time
Once upon a time
Long long ago
In a far away land
Was a sweet little child
Who used to have a fairy tale book
Read to her by her dear mother
Every night as she was tucked into bed
She would hear a story from her mom
But there were clauses to this plan.
It was a given thing between the two
The story had to have a happy ending
The story includes people and animals
Or even a garden of fruits and flowers
Enchanting stories of courage and dare
Of compassion and care
Of humanity at large
In goodwill and love
Or even seemingly silly stories
Of life and living in general
Of fun and frolic.
But there was a pact between the two
Which her mother followed to the tee.
Simply there was one area
The story must not go to or be
Of things above in the sky.
Although her mother was too drawn
To explore the mystery of space…
But the little girl felt a little too lost
To fathom space and beyond
May be it was just her nature
Or perhaps there was more to it
Of why she was uncomfortable with unknown space!
Leaving a few musings in contemplation…
Are fears rational or just an illusion in the making?
What are irrational fears?
Are they there for a reason?
Do fears manifests from past lives?
Do fears eventually help us someway?
How does one overcome these fears?
Can we grow out of our little fears?
Do you have any experience of fears as a kid?
Have you chosen to outgrow them?
Have you managed to face your fears?
For life awaits on the other side of fear!

Crosswinds
A painting by Savvy Raj
For every you, there is another you caught in the crosswinds
In fact, there could be many more reflections of you…life will throw you the hints
Fanning the flames only arouses the spirit
To arise and evolve more than we give merit
To deeper levels of conscious awareness
Breathe in the wisdom of knowing in all fairness
Of the freeflow of movements as it unfolds
The crosswinds breathe fire of life into souls
To breathe in the the energy of consciousness sublime
Trust the trysts of destiny in the eternality of time
To have a reason all their own
Cause it is preordained like seeds of life already sown.
