Precious life

Spirit of life and living

Makes the soul

Find purpose & meaning

Treat the body as a temple

Make friends with your mind

Allow the body & mind to coexist

Let them be harmonious

The life feels just right…

To be really healthy and truly well all that is required is that we not only treat our body right, but our mind and soul too.

Success is…

I share a few more lines on Success I had written earlier

You create the state of success
And you never rest on your success
Success is in the courage to continue
Your perseverance, your passion and purpose.

Success is consistently inconsiderate
Success demands much focus
as it supplies momentum
Beyond self limitations and doubts.

Success is in each of us
Awaiting a discovery
An unearthing of potential
To sense in life’s infinite possibilities.

On writing

Writing every day
Unplugs the steam
Off everyday stress
Unleashes the flavours
Of life in the experiencing
Through thoughts & words
Flowing unbridled
Inked in the thinking through
Linked in the freeverses
Interweaved in the living.

Trustful ways

In any organization
When leadership listens
Empathy is nurtured
Safe space is created
Conversations  connect
Teams bond in trustfulness
Productivity rises
In balanced motivation
Both intrinsic  & external
Work becomes less dense
In collaboration & cooperation
Valuing diversity of potential
Possibilities are explored
Challenges gets simplified
Structure becomes systems
Protocols are in place
Change is acknowledged
In faith goodwill and trust
That we are stronger together
There is unity in diversity
As respect becomes culture.
Trust becomes the way.

Wind in the shell

We are all mere wind in a shell
Winding &unwinding
Our thoughts in every now


We are travellers shoring our souls
One beach to another
Evolving along the way…

I wrote these lines as a response to a comment on my earlier post .I came across it today and felt it was just apt with the image above.

Gift of this now

This now is full of infinite possibilities

For every day is replete with potential

Whatever the path you take

Your life’s moments are a gift

You are meant to sense

So care to take a moment

To acknowledge the gifts

Of this moment as it is

See how everything connects

To every thing else.

And if you truly wish

You can create more moments

Of joy and light in & around u

Start simply by a practice

Of acknowledging this moment in this now..

Make today count!

Possible

Dare to dream and walk on

Continue to persevere

In patience and passion

In faith and belief

In hope and trust

There is much good

You are meant to do

In your journey of life

Doubt not your ability

No matter the naysayers

For there will be plenty

Of those who will say so…

But very few who help

You do, what you do

In perseverance & patience

You create your purpose

And you find yourself

In possibilities.

It’s all possible because you know in your heart you can…

On flexibility

An interesting epic story with profound thoughts

“Tongue in Teeth……”

Strolling through the streets of Lanka at night, Hanuman was taken aback when he heard the chants of Sriram coming from a home.

They were not loud but whispers through the windows.

Hanuman wondered who could be chanting my Lord’s name in the city ruled by Ravan.

The house had a cluster of Tulsi plants outside and the walls had signs of Sri Hari.

Just then a man opened the front door and came out chanting the Holy Name.

The Sky was Starlit and it was couple of hours before Dawn.

The man offered water to the Tulsi plants, while performing a Circumbulation.

Hanuman hopped and stood before him, folding his hands.

The man introduced himself as Vibhishana, brother of Ravan.

Hanuman asked

“It baffles me: you are a devotee and a Noble Soul.

How on Earth you live among the Demons? “

Vibhishan smiled and said

“Just as the tongue lives in the mouth with thirty two teeth biting and grinding, around it, not only does the tongue remain untouched, it enjoys all the taste”.

The very food that sits and rolls on the tongue is chewed to a pulp by the teeth and yet this snaky little thing escapes unscathed.

Only time it is hurt is when we have a lapse of mindfulness.

Why?

Philosophically the chief difference is, flexibility.

The tongue’s flexibility is the key to its longevity.

That’s why it gets the taste while the teeth get Root canals and Cavities

They fall too or pulled out!.

But no one loses their tongue.

The tongue teaches…….

Others may grind and bite but you can still enjoy life if you are flexible.

Everything will hurt less, bother less if we loosen up a bit.. then an Avalanche of Peace and Joy is triggered.

If you want lasting Peace and Joy, learn from your tongue and live like it. Befriend it. Tame it. It has a great bearing on your relationship.

On listening

There is the power of sounds
Discovered in Silence
In meditative stillness
In contemplative introspection
In expansiveness  of understanding
In the depth of listening
There is then  the power of words
Of vision in the verses
Or expressions of the uniqueness
All mere vibrations in resonance.

Thank you for the depth of your empathic listening.

Making lemonade

They say when life gives you lemons make a lemonade and enjoy it!

Profoundly said indeed!

Wisdom is in seeing what is possible

Making the best out of the resources

With whatever there is at hand.

It’s not always easy to see hope in scarcity

For it demands thinking beyond the limitations.

Bringing forth ingenuity & integration

Then all that’s impossible becomes worthwhile once again.

For such is life in the living.

A little sour and a little sweet

And it’s all in the tasting.

And about sensing in every sip.

Gifts of feelings

In the myriad moments
And multitude of experiences
In life and living.

There is so much going on
Betwixt and between us all.
So much to live and care for…

Often unsaid words
& repressed feelings
Are brimming in the sensing

Emotions have their way
Of expressing themselves
At inopportune moments.

But if we choose to take time
We can channel our thoughts
In mindful awareness.

Perhaps our emotions
Can be our precious gift
To sense and balance the self.

We are blessed with all
That we need from nature
Let’s acknowledge our gifts.

On Laughter

Do you know…

How beautiful is your face

When you smile…

How happy is your heart

When you laugh…

The Journey of life

Often challenges you

Where your smile is forgotten.

All you need then is to be

A little easy on yourself

And begin take life lightly

Take yourself a little less seriously.

For all you know

Chances are you will get over the grim moments

For change is the only constant .

All is meant to be just fine…

Just care to smile and laugh a little more

And find yourself

Living life lovingly!

Life in the living

Aim to give selflessly

Whenever you receive goodness in words and deeds
Ensure you give back generously…

Acknowledge the good celebrate it

And reflect the rays of kindness
That way the sun beams never turn harsh
And the heart always feels light .
